Opinions.

Typically I think, automatic bad player.

Or the type of person who chews into the mic on TS, auto-ban-mute.

Not naming names. :rolleyes:

Am I prejudiced?

Edited an important caveat or the OP, as some of my friends 'bro' me from time to time. And they are solid.

I only have a problem with this if people say it in real life. On the internet it doesn't bother me at all. There is no option for that. This poll sucks.

Also, no monkey rodeo.

there is a difference between brah and bro. i remember when not many people were saying bruh, then they put it on the tv and all the white males started saying brah. then it quickly moved to the internet and became an insult.

iirc "bro" is short for brother and represents that we are all brothers, i.e. children of god.

so for you fucking retardos who are still stuck in the brah phase, get a life.

Riveting... can we have the history of "brew", as well? I like to use that one nowadays.

I notice I say it in mmo's a lot for some reason and I do not say it in real life unless I am being sarcastic. The only reason I can credit it to: When I played eq2 with a couple online buddies, one of em said bro all the time and it just kind of rubbed off. I probably can outplay most players here just due to keybinding everything and not mouse clicking my spells saving spell delays ect*. But hey you can think I am a bad player.. chances are I will never group with you due to the xp being so shitty because of your slow pulling or inefficient spellcasting which will force me to solo in order to achieve a decent experience gain.

Oh I forgot to say, 'GL, bro!'

I was always more suspicious of random players who sent me tells starting with "hello friend..." Usually these people were trying to A) offer me 50% or less of what an item was worth in EC or B) some ridiculous favor that included teleports and running and transferring stuff for them.

Slightly off topic... but what about this new thing where you get barraged with "cools"... e.g. I called Netflix tech support the other night, and upon describing my issue, the dudebro replied with a rapidfire "coolcoolcoolcoolcool". I nearly lol'd in my rotary phone receiver.

I would suggest the pool episode. It is the first time it got really good. Also it is season 1 so they are still developing character.

I don't say bro anymore unless it's sarcastically, or occasionally through internet chat, or plain just by accident when I forget your name or something.

I do use "brother" often though, and not in a ghetto or religious way. I just think it is respectful and cool towards someone you know well. "Take it easy, brother." I would say "sister" but that's just plain gay.

Drove half the shop nuttier than a snickers bar... They retaliated with calling him all sorts of nicknames like:Ace, Squirt, Sport, Co-cheese & the list goes on... was like watching those fire against fire moments... ahhh those crazy old memories of the past
