Do you ever call your friends bro?


Recommended Posts

Or guys you like?  I’m not sure how popular that slang is in Buffalo.

 

I don’t use it that much but yeah I warmed up to being called that.  Shows the other person thinks of you as their equal kind of thing to me.

Never. 

 

I worked with a guy who called everyone “guy”. Like “hey, guy, how you doing?” He just couldn’t remember other people’s names.

Since Buffalo is right on the Canadian border.. and lots of us grew up around Canadian hockey players... Some of us picked up Canadian lingo 

 

I grew up saying bud or buddy lol 

 

Like if I call my friend I still say what's up bud

It's very common slang around here, I don't mind using it appropriately with close friends or even that friend from high school you don't see as often but you guys have that mutual respect for each other....but I absolutely hate it when you go somewhere and a salesman or someone taking your food order tries calling you that.  Super corny in those instances.

I’ll use “brother,” but not bro. 
 

I think “brother” is more of a term of endearment and I have no problem saying it or being on the receiving end.

In Christian circles we often call fellow Christians Brother or Sister. My church does (Baptist) 

 

I think both are fine. Talking about my sibling I used to call him my bro .  RIP
