Everybody's going bro this and bruh that, but you're not my brother, dude 😒

It's not like either word is new but I feel like "bro" and variations like bruh or brah have become way more commonly used in the last decade among younger people as a term of address in contexts where I would have just said dude

Maybe it's just because I have a child that will not stop using "bro", but I agree. I don't recall using "dude" in nearly this level of frequency, even as a huge fan of mutant turtles of the teenage variety.

Where do you live if you don’t mind me asking? Dude was a thing in the U.K., but not that much.
