"You know it BROTHA!"

And all variations of "brother," except in the literal, actual sense.

Who started this nonsense?

In movies and TV i've always seen monks and religious types use it as a nearly exclusive way of referring to one another. But I think the crappy casual usage you're talking about was made extra crappy for you by dumb North Americans. I wonder if it's roots are in that other stuff though or not...

I hate it too, but not NEARLY as much as I hate...
Hey BRAH!

being called "boss".

Whatever you say, boss.

Breakfast- I'm havin' a time
Wheelies- I'm havin' a time
Headlocks- I'm havin' a time
Drunk Tank- not so much a time
George St.- I'm havin' a time
Brenda- I'm havin' a time
Bingo- I'm havin' a time
House Arrest- I'm still havin' a time

would or do?

This could be a regular segment on a comedy podcast. "Now it's time to play WOULD! OR! DO!".

Hate is too strong for this point, but the whole thing is so minor I can't create a new thread for it.

This just bugs me .

The expression "What the ... ? ", specifically when used in children's TV programming.

There is no young-child-appropriate end to that expression - WHY is it used SO often in kid shows?

That comic strip, Non Sequitur.

Wry and cynical humor if alright every now and then, but this one just seems like it's patting itself on the back. It's worse than the guy from Top Gear.

Because the fact that "shit", "hell", "damn", "bitch" that are common in afterschool cartoons now are fine? :)

After looking at it for 15 seconds: I think the guy who runs that blog is more hateable than any of the stuff he's making fun of.

Anyone who hates people who call others "brother" a lot must really loathe Jamie Oliver.  Especially when he's talking to teenagers.
