Two-Gun Pete Posted May 14, 2021 Share Posted May 14, 2021 (edited) Why is it "brah," not "bro?" "Brah" just seems wrong. Edit: Wait, are you trying to come off as a Hawaiian surfer dude? Or co-opting Hawaiian pidgin? "Brah" still seems wrong here, unless you're a Hawaiian surfer dude.

Let's be honest here, the odds are really high that brah is just a filler word for what he really wants to call you, but can't because he doesn't want to get suspended.

Really? Caulfield is many things but mean spirited and prone to personal attacks isn't among them. He's an eccentric but he's our eccentric and I can dig that. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could honestly say The Autobiography of Malcolm X and No One Here Gets Out Alive (Jim Morrison bio) were much more influential.

It just threw me for a loop, given that the most of us are midwesterners, and I'd associated "brah" with an entirely different place/culture. 4 hours ago, southsider2k5 said: Let's be honest here, the odds are really high that brah is just a filler word for what he really wants to call you, but can't because he doesn't want to get suspended. Nah, I didn't think it was an insult or attack by any means; i just think its weird to go with that word choice. I dont see bro/brah as the same word/different spelling, because a word, if used by someone outside its source group could be "co-opty." "Brah?" Really?
