Do you ever call your friends bro?

[Another Fan]

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.  

[Augie]

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. 

[The Poojer]

nope, i'm neither 17 nor in a fraternity 🙂

[LeviF]

Don't "bro" me if you don't know me, bro.

[US Egg]

Is “brother”, “my brotha” or “brotherman” acceptable?

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

I had a buddy who would call me “Broseph” or “Broseppi.”  Very cool, but I can’t pull that off.

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.  

[Mark Vader]

No

[Bills4everNY]

Never called anyone bro or dude.

[Gugny]

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. 

[TBBills Fan]

Nah bro

[rusty shackleford]

[EmotionallyUnstable]

Now he have the modernized version known as “bruh” 

[muppy]

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

[thenorthremembers]

Every once and awhile it slips out.  Tend to use brother, boss, man.  Yep I am one of those.
