Why do these strangers call me "bro"

I used to have a balding district manager with a pronstache who smacked chewing gum and always called people "big guy".

"Can ya do this for me, big guy?" "What's this do, big guy?"

I wanted to stomp his balls into soup.

What's up, Kimosabe?


I hate the "Big Guy" thing.


I've been calling people Bozo and Jabroni a lot.

 

 

sometimes I use "big man", but only to people that are fellow members of the gymrat brotherhood.

 

otherwise it is usually dude, bro, or lady (for the females). dude has always been used since my skateboard-punk days. bro kind of came around in an ironic demeaning fashion to make fun of real bro-douchebags, then it just kind of stuck around. I still say it with heavy emphasis on the B as if I am being condescending though.

I wont. I prefer br'er as a shortened form of brother. a la brer rabbit.

E.g. Cool story Br'er

I also don't call females Boo because boo derives from French Beau, as in lovely, cherished, Belle is the female form.

I strive to be etymologically correct.

That's all true, but I'm mostly kidding, I don't care.
