    Trickery is fun. It is that time of year after all (Halloween). Just let it play out.

    I get just as annoyed as the unicorn does with stupid made-up words like “frenemies”… and while the grammar police are out in full force “Partnered” is NOT a word, and “fund-raising” is a hyphenated compound word, not a single word. Dammit, I had to have all this grammar and spelling pounded into me back in the day, so the rest of you can bloody well learn it, too! grump grump grump

    Are you more worried that everyone thinks that Dakota is your friend in place than maybe all existance could be under the menace of magic hair?

    Is Marigold reminding Phoebe of the importance of thinking about other people? Weird.

    My imagination or is the “Regardless” a different accent for Marigold?

    ”Partner” has been used as a verb at least since Shakespeare did so in “Cymbeline”, and any professional will tell you that such quarrels as “fund-raising” vs. “fundraising” are purely a matter of fashion, habit, and institutional consistency. Neither one is “right” or “wrong” in the absolute; either one might be mandated by some particular manual of style.

    As to “frenemy”, it is a portmanteau word (an expression that, in itself, has demonstrated its usefulness by outliving its original metaphor), and, as such, hallowed by no less a literary authority than Lewis Carroll, himself. But the true test of the right of a word to exist is its usefulness, and there "frenemy” clearly succeeds, for there is no prior English word or brief idiom covering the same semantic territory.

    By the way, the first known printed use of “frenemy” is from 1953.

    Frenemy seems like a word James Joyce could have invented, but he died in 1941.

    “froe” is the preferred nomenclature.

    (Nice and balanced, with respect to letter-havingness)
