Friends

Girlfriend-Pronunciation: ‘g&r(-&)l-”frend
Function: noun

 One who acts as a tread on the bottom of your shoe when all elements point to a big slip. Also can be used for amplifying a humorous situation, positive situation, a situation that is on the fence between positive and negative, and otherwise weird situations. One who acts as a buffer to you and the rest of the world. She may also justify negative behavior based on current negative situations. She is available at anytime of the day, and puts you before anyone of the male species and prioritizes situations for you when you are unable to overcome a circumstance. Girlfriends judge each other, but will murder anyone else for judging their friends.
