Why verb a noun when a perfectly serviceable verb 'to befriend' is already a part of the language? But language grows with need, and 'to friend' someone online is not necessarily the same as 'to befriend'. Each new verb or noun adds a new shade to the mosaic of the language.
I believe you on your word Luke but:
Why slice up a perfectly serviceable lobster tail when we have knives and forks? I fear this is how they come, in ready-to-go deep frozen packages.
I expect Lewis Caroll to come back and tell the Tale of the Lobster Tile. :-)
