How guys refer to their guy friends according to twitter. My favorite thing about this map is that bro is mostly a Texas thing and yet I never hear people use it. So like, there's a large number of people in Texas who don't actually say bro but tweet it all the time.
That's actually really interesting considering the dudebro phenomenon that happened when things like call of duty and fantasy football took off. You'd think it'd be a lot more prevalent. It's not like people outside of that area are unfamiliar with the phenomenon. Sadly I actually see physical examples in my daily life at retail. I wonder why the tweeting is so focused in Texas. Why do my local dudebros not tweet to each other the way they talk to each other? Very interesting
I call everybody bro and dude regardless of gender and I am not ashamed.
The heck is wrong with calling a good friend 'bro' or 'dude'?
Nothing, in and of itself. Until you start extending the primary vowel to ridiculous extents, and start acting constantly drunk. Duuuuude~ Broooooo~
...unironically of course
I say dude and man. I say these a lot, and I say it to whoever I am talking to, regardless of gender.

It also means you probably have great taste in video games.
These are my go to terms too, dude.Quote:

I also call almost everyone bro or dude regardless of gender. "Brother" on the other hand is restricted to a handful of my realest people.
We can call women bros?
Good to know.
