Get the nearlebrity mug.A tweenior is the age at which you are between middle age and being a full senior citizen. It is also when you are in that early stage of denial when you don't want to full be called a senior citizen. Somewhere in the range of 55 to 65 you may be referred to as a "tweenior". This may be for either vanity purposes or could even be a new demographic age reference.

The abuse is seen when the abuser can give no logical reason for the implementation of punitive measures against an ally where trading, and agreements to trade are in contractual agreement. This 'ally abuse' is perfectly illustrated by the random actions against allies of the United States of America - by the United States of America. Both punitive tariffs outside a formal agreement, and, the 'on again, off again' nature of threats to implement said trading tariffs constitute Ally abuse. In the above example, in 2025, Donald Trump engaged in "Ally abuse" against its formal trading partners, Mexico and Canada.
The United States of America has engaged in "Ally abuse" with its formal trading partners in Canada and Mexico.
