Bro Code

The Official Bro Code / written by Barney Stinson

1) Bros before hoes. The bond between two men is stronger than that between a man and a woman because on an average, men are stronger than women. That’s just science. 2) A bro is always entitled to do something stupid as long as the rest of his bros are all doing it. For example... If only one Spanish dude were to run down the street in frontof a bunch of angry bulls, people would have been like "Dude, come on!!". The license to be stupid is why we have bros in the first place. 3) If a bro gets a dog, it must be atleast as tall as his knee when full grown. Corollary to this states, naming a lap-dog after a pro-wrestler or a character from a Steve McLain movie does not absolve a bro from this article. 4) A bro never divulges theexistence of the bro code to a woman. It is a sacred document not to be shared with chicks for any reason. NOTE: If you are a woman reading this, first let me apologize: it was never my intention for this book to contain so much math. Second, I urge you to look at this document for what it is a piece of fiction meant to entertain a broad audience through the prism of stereotypical gender differences. Imean, sometimes it really is like we're

from different planets! Clearly, no real person would actually believe or adhere to the vulgar rules contained within.* Those boots are adorable, b-t-dub. 5) Whether he cares about sports or not, a bro cares about sports.

6) A bro shall not lollygag if he must get naked in front of other bros in a gym locker room. Corollary to this states, if a brogets naked in the locker room, all other bros shall pretend that nothing out of the ordinary is happening while at the same time immediately averting their eyes. When in doubt, remember the old adage. If your towel drops to the ground, so should your eyes. 7) A bro never sends a greeting card to another bro. There are no sentiments between two bros that cannot be articulated through the convenienceand emotional distance of electronic mail. 8) A bro never admits he can’t drive stick even after an accident. 9) Should a bro lose a body part due to an accident or illness, his fellow bros will not make lame jokes such as "Gimme three" or "Wow!! Quitting your job like that really took a lot of ball!!" It’s still a hi-five and that bro still has a lot of balls, metaphorically speaking of course.10) A bro will drop whatever he is doing and rush to help his bro dump a chick. It’s normal for a bro to get confused and disoriented when dumping a chick. For some reason he is worried she will become agitated or even violent after he calmly explains his desire to hook up with her friends. This is when a bro most needs his bro to remind him that there are plenty of chick in the ocean and that abreakup need not be hazardous, stressful or even time- consuming. How to dump an chick in 6 words or less... - “Maybe try a side salad instead." - “Cute!! You ‘re growing a moustache too!!" - “She looks like a younger you!!" - “I will finance a boob job." - “Sorry I threw your shoes out." - “Your sister let me do that!!" 11) A bro may ask another bro to help him move. But only after first disclosingan honest estimate on both time commitment and number of large furniture pieces. If the bro has vastly underestimated, either his bros retain the right to leave his possessions where they are, in most cases stuck in a door-way.

12) Bros do not share dessert. 13) All bros shall dub one of their bros his wingman. 14) If a chick enquires about another bros’ sexual history, a bro shall honor theBr-ode of silence and play dumb. Better to have women think that all men are stupid than to tell the truth. 15) A bro never dances with his hands above his head. 16) A bro should be able to recite anytime the following reigning champions: Super bowl, World series and Play Mate of the year. 17) A bro shall be kind and courteous to his co-workers unless they are beneath him on the pyramid of...
