Banging remarkable strange is the civic duty of every single guy. The story you get to tell afterwards makes up for missing poker night 99 times out of a hundred.

And that, my friends, is Man Law.

True.

AND THAT is what buds will discuss ad nauseum after any invocation of the BBH man-law. The law is a learning experience, getting back to your buds and discussing the event and finding out whether or not you violated their trust is part of the point. For any set of buds, the BBH law will vary slightly depending on the guys involved. For example:

Several socially challenged young men (geeks) have a "bro" planned event (for extreme sake, let's say a trek convention) and one them is approached by a relatively attractive woman - it would appear to me that this particular group would not only allow but demand the young man to pursue said tang.
However, with the same woman but different guys (jocks going to a football game), different result.

Bros Before Hoes is about finding out what is expected of you and what you can expect from your buds. It is a proper manlaw but in determining it's meaning, violation and penalty, you gotta work at knowing what your buds can and should expect from you and vice versa.

It's not quite Question 3. But it's close.

I'm not sure, but my gut is telling me that discussing relational trust issues with "bros" is a violation of a Man Law somewhere.

I think I'm with AMD on this one:

Basically this gets back to the other Man Law of no bitchin' amongst bros.

JoeRedskin · 06-15-2006, 12:12 PM

Nowhere in my post did I mention the word "relationships". I did mention trust - as in breaking their trust and violating the man code.

But for what its worth, I am with AMD.

I feel this is something that's similar to a Big Ben situation. You're expected to ACT a certain way for your bros or your hoes, but that doesn't mean if you act in the wrong way that people won't be disappointed. You're not "REQUIRED" to do anything, just simply encouraged.

BDBohnzie · 06-15-2006, 12:54 PM

man, i leave work yesterday, this thread was only 40 or so posts in...

lots of catching up...

i'll give the nod to whatever the final interpretation of Bros before Hoes is. My personal thought is anything preplanned, there is no excuse to break it for a Ho. If it's a phone call a day or 2 before to hang out, and said Bro calls because of Ho, then it's understandable, but doesn't have to be liked. Be prepared to take a shovel full of shit for it. but as Brud said...if said superhot chick slides up next to you at the beerpong table, and whispers in your ear about the nasty things she wants to do to you, by all means, take off...as long as said story is told at the next preplanned event.

cannot limit a man's choice of beer with a man law...just can't be done. and yes, AMD refused to drink Busch...but would drink Natty Light, so figure that one out.

and Man Law on the whole beer/food run deal..don't expect change "because it went to Jerry's Kids", and if you're not man enough to go along and help out, don't bitch if it's not exactly what you wanted.

and Frozen Margaritas are only acceptible if a sidecar of more liquor is added or they are cheap...ie 2 bucks or less. again, if you want a cold lime flavored drink, get the damn thing over the rocks.

the BSB deserves a night of drunken debotchery on vishskins upon his return...

Next man law kinda goes along with the do onto others, Earl's Law, etc stuff

Man Law: If a friend is thrown in the slammer, and calls you for bail, promptly go bail him out. The exception to this law is if the significant other's reaction will be chaos, destruction, and anarchy, at which point you first call significant other and say he was too drunk to drive home and is crashing with you, then go bail him out.

MAN LAW: When you walk into a bathroom at a bar on a busy night and there are only 2 toilets (1 toilet 1 urinal) and both are being used, wait in the hall. Do not wait in the bathroom.

Is pissing in the sink ok?

Maybe that's just a college thing.

No, that's not a college thing I did this at home last night.

LOL at home?

Damn

mheisig · 06-15-2006, 01:18 PM

Just make sure to squirt a little soap in the sink afterwards and it's all good.

Depending on the height of the sink it can be difficult for those of "small stature." Fortunately I'm built like a hose so reaching a high sink with my johnson has never been a problem.
