The word friend has not been used by anyone to refer to me in since I was in my early 20s and I am grateful for it. Having friends means having obligations, increased complexity in one's life, and, inevitably, loss. I know I'm in the minority for feeling that way, though.

Having a friend is basically an impossible dream that cannot be achieved. That is why we have fiction.

I hate the trend of saying "NTR'd" instead of "cucked", though obviously the latter has unseemly political connotations. Weeb or Nazi - the channers dillemna

Oh it would be so easy if there was anyone who could look you directly in your eyes. Pouting like “I know there’s maple syrup in this thing what the deal friendo”.

I think it’s one of those words you can only say if you know. Like keehnaum

I don't know the context of the op in regards to the Japanese word, but I think friend can come with the idea of an exchange between two people. Homie has a more familial connotation, like brother. So yes, friendship exists as a notion of mutually beneficial relationship, but the greater thing is altruistic behavior towards all.

I think it’s like whatever sort of loose and generalized definition I could use to include myself.

There is no direct translation for the English phenomena known as "egg friend" The closest linguists have gotten is the disappointing "egg man" Further research is needed
