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

I used alot of bro, brah, breh, bruh when working in my last workplace. For the longest time I was the only woman there so whenever shit hit the fan, which was always, I'd complain with a bruh variant.
