Friendearing

Meaning: Of or pertaining to the funny ticks, eccentricities, and ridiculous sayings of your friends, that remind you how awesome they are.

Function: Adjective

Portmanteau Origins: Friend + Endearing

Example: "Just love it when I'm reminded why I love my friends. Especially when they are as odd as sending me pictures of lace up boots that are meant to hide what are falsely-to-be-believed tiny ankles. Or the superhuman ability to know what song is playing based on its first two notes. Or the shared belief that you are showing a waiter how you feel about his service by choosing to give 18 percent and not 20 percent."
