Why is it "brah," not "bro?"

"Brah" just seems wrong.

 

Edit: Wait, are you trying to come off as a Hawaiian surfer dude? Or co-opting Hawaiian pidgin? "Brah" still seems wrong here, unless you're a Hawaiian surfer dude.

Let's be honest here, the odds are really high that brah is just a filler word for what he really wants to call you, but can't because he doesn't want to get suspended.

Really?  Caulfield is many things but mean spirited and prone to personal attacks isn't among them.  He's an eccentric but he's our eccentric and I can dig that.

Everyone playing pop psychologist today.

Well, eccentric is the word for rich people.   Like Howard Hughes.   So I will just go with unique and varied interests.

I mean with your name and postings I always think Holden Caulfield!  Who was certainly a compelling eccentric!

One of my favorite books growing up...as an English major.  But it hasn’t quite aged as well as others on second reading as an adult, revising student extended essays on ‘ol Holden.

I could honestly say The Autobiography of Malcolm X and No One Here Gets Out Alive (Jim Morrison bio) were much more influential.

It just threw me for a loop, given that the most of us are midwesterners, and I'd associated "brah" with an entirely different place/culture.

Nah, I didn't think it was an insult or attack by any means; i just think its weird to go with that word choice. I dont see bro/brah as the same word/different spelling, because a word, if used by someone outside its source group could be "co-opty."

 

"Brah?" Really? 

The Royals had a hot start but they are just not very good. 

Kids today and your far out groovy vernacular. Mahalo!
