"Bro"
The term "Bro".
Positive (a name you call your close friends)? Or, negative (a douche)? It appears to carry a negative connotation on this site. I would like to rectify the situation. Discuss. |
used to be cool when it was part of skater slang
(at least in my skating days) now I think of 'roided out MMA meat heads wearing Affliction and Tap-Out clothing... |
I think it depends on the context if it is negative or positive.
Like if i respond saying "Yeah, bro," I'm probably talking to a friend or acquaintance. If I say "Aw dude bro totally" its probably in response to someone acting like a "bro" (read tool, d-bag, asshole) |
BROCAL BRO.
When I think of this term, I instantly think of the white boys with sunglasses and the lifted trucks and big "SKIN" sticker across the back. Or I think of GLENDALE. |
Socal 909 bro-central

BRO is like saying hella or hellaflush its played the fuck out |

Cosmo Kramers- Man Bra.

Yea bro here doesn't mean you are a douche. Bra however does.
|
Haha. This is interesting.
I just call a d-bag a d-bag. I tend to use bro in a positive light when referencing my buddies. For the record, we don't fit into the affliction/lifted truck/jersey category. Well one kind of does, and we call him a d. Haha. |
I have stoped using the word bro around my buddys since i am in the 951 near the 909 area were like we said lifted trucks douches ect.... but here on the forum it does not have the same meaning
|
It all depends on how its said.
And skaters and snowborders say "Brah", btw, lol I think it pick up some negativity because of the over use by cultures and races that are new to the United States over using it. |
I've never warmed up to using the term myself.
However, I see no reason to take offense either. The term is neither negative or positive, but a little corny/annoying perhaps. |

You see, I have a dislike for Bro-trucks, Bro-hos, and all things BRO, know what I mean BRO? Bro-rape is very serious, BRO. Know what I mean, BROTATO? :tardrim: Honestly though - when people have a tendency to use the word more than once in a 10 minute span (or within an email/PM), I want to pull my hair out and make with the stabbing. I DO dislike douchebags with lifted trucks that have never (and will never) go off the pavement, and are just lifted to look cool. These BROs with their hats cocked at seemingly random angles, with their TOTALLY SWEET tribal tattoo on their biceps are so oblivious to the fact that their efforts to be cool only make them look more retarded that it actually pains me. :ghey: Ok, fun rant over. I don't care that much, but I do mock Bros and anyone who can't speak without using the word. |
its used too much by tools themselves lol
like calling someone a tool lol |
i use it. i take no offense to it. nor does it mean anything negative lol
|
i don't say bro too much..i do say dude and "man" a lot though lol
like whassup dude? whassup man? |

I do think there are worse things to say. My least favorite is "You know what I'm sayin'"? (over & over). I know it's not intentional, but that's about the most terrible thing you can say to insult your audience's intelligence imo. "Old School" also gets on my nerves. Come on, at least make some effort to state the decade something is from. Kids these days will call stuff from the early 00's "Old School". |

Oh and the fist pump bullshit is all MTV and Small minority of people on the east coast inflicted. No one would even know about it if not for MTV and its lowest common denominator Television. Hellaflush is a actual thing that happened. There are Hellaflush meets and cars its different. You should not even be including it as a comparison. BRO is not so much played out as just awful uneducated slang terminology. Its very Glendale California. LOL a certain recently arrived ethnic culture loves to use it. In fact my buddy Mike calls Glendale, Brodale. |
whenever i use that word i use it by accident, and then i think, wait, did i really just say that?
|
|
Whenever I see or hear someone using "bro" my mind usually thinks about Tool Academy. Spiked hair, tribal tattoos, popped collars, that horrible-smelling shit that Abercrombie uses to contaminate a whole 3rd of our mall here.
Luckily, though, I only see these people on the internets and television regularly, so I do not have any reason to act on my urge to catch an assault charge. |
when ever i hear it i think young Cali armenians from burbank/glendale area...
i swear everysentence its bro in the begining and in the end... just tellin it how it is/./ |

Don't say bro much. but iunno i'm friends with a lot of whiteboys so it happens. Doesn't bother me though. I call people bruh too. And dude. And several words I'll get pinked if i tell you. |
I mostly use it sarcastically these days lol.
|
"bro", "brah", fist bumping, and "clutch" are all used regularly by me, but, you know, ironically
even though i use them all day every day :( |
