Hahaha, Martin Skidmore is all sexually reticent about saying "hos."

Let's not forget the female equivalent of this is "chicks before dicks".

I think Gareth is right upthread. The key to happiness is balance among all elements of life. I *hate* being dissed by friends for their lastest bedmates but I'm sure I've been guilty for it in the past. What's sad though is how much more forgiving some women can be of this crime by fellow women. As in, "well of course she's choosing her BF over us. BFs are *so* much more important." CRAP!

Chicks with dicks before bros with hos.

It's not sexual reticence, Nabisco - it's the kind of slang it is. As a middle-aged English white guy, it is so alien that it feels absurdly false to say it. The bros part as much as the hos.

Martin Skidmore (Martin Skidmore), Friday, 2 May 2003 20:35 (twenty-one years ago) link

Martin, I thought the absurd phoniness of using such terms was a given for many, if not most, of us.

Rockist Scientist, Friday, 2 May 2003 21:21 (twenty-one years ago) link

I feel left out.

Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Friday, 2 May 2003 21:22 (twenty-one years ago) link

Yeah, probably, and I can cope with some slang that in no sense belongs to me, but this is too distant in culture, time, geography, sensibility, everything, that it feels too forced. Sorry, I was initially trying to do that in a jokey way (about middle aged English stiffness) rather than make any point about the terminology or anything like that. I am doing a lousy job of being light tonight, for some reason, but that's another story.

Hey, Martin, Jerry the Nipper said "fo shizzle" TWICE on AIM this morning. If he can become comfortable with that, you certainly can get used to "ho" and "bro"..

Mandee, Friday, 2 May 2003 21:44 (twenty-one years ago) link

Jerry has stronger US connections than me, and also is a lot younger!

After my discomfort above with the bros and hos stuff, I was today walking around with my Walkman on in the least white area of the UK (my home area, 34% white - only one other borough in the UK has minority white people), and it seems the inhibitions don't arise when I'm just unconsciously singing along with a well-known record, because I was joining in (fortunately at low volume) on "I'm a nigger from the motherfucking streets" (some of you will recognise that I was playing The Chronic).

Many of you will realise that I am not a nigger from the motherfucking streets.

Booyah, Martin.

To what extent do you agree with "BROS BEFORE HOES"

buzza, Friday, 6 May 2011 22:24 (thirteen years ago) link

I wish my job was illustrating cakes that are also kings.

KING –– it says it right on his crown.

dell (del), Friday, 6 May 2011 22:45 (thirteen years ago) link

he is rushing to the aid of a fallen countryman (too late, too late)

normal_fantasy-unicorns (contenderizer), Friday, 6 May 2011 22:49 (thirteen years ago) link

Seriously considering a tattoo of that KING.

Lately I’ve noticed some tension among the bros; some dissonance in the brommunity

calstars, Saturday, 15 December 2018 18:15 (five years ago) link

...as if millions of bros suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

Sanpaku, Saturday, 15 December 2018 19:05 (five years ago) link

The lads must save the bros

No Smockin' (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Saturday, 15 December 2018 21:21 (five years ago) link

gabbnebulous (darraghmac), Saturday, 15 December 2018 21:24 (five years ago) link

Lol, so young... not so different.

I so adhere to this. I hate couples and how they take away my friends. And my guy friends' girlfriends always hate me or my girl friends' boyfriends always think I'm out to maim them (not entirely untrue). I'm in a couple and I hate us.
