Its American brah, do u even speak American dude?
+1
OP: i only use that phrase when making fun of a few acquaintances or co-workers who are all bro'ed-out. worst of all, around here, there is a whole separate of order of "brah" that we refer to as "grow-bros" that drive like complete assholes in their over-sized, super-lifted trucks, most often loaded down with pallets of soil or other grow materials. they are the worst kind of brah/bro in all of time.

I didn't realise that was a thing. I'm going to stringently maintain the utmost ecological ethics with regards to growing food, but be insanely macho and aggressive about it. I'M A GROW BRO. I found my calling.

I do indeed. I think it became PENG shortly after. God knows what it is now, but I'm sure my head would explode if I heard it.

For some reason, I find it just grates on my grey matter...
my friends over in the UK say 'bruv' or 'bro'

True, but I say it because I believe we are all intrinsically linked. Spiritually. I believe every human is a part of me and I a part of every other.
I use it to symbolise the belief that every human alive is my brother or sister in some indescribable, esoteric way.
Somehow, I don't think that people that say 'brah', 'bruv' or 'blud' have the same intention in mind.

That's great , but us far less spiritual cunts find "brother" preachy and annoying as brah might be to others. We can all be humans without being brothers or brahs.
