    Recently, all I've been hearing is "brother" this and "brother" that.

    Was out last night and a guy asked me for a cigarette and I gave him one and he said "Thanks brother".

    What the ****? Where did this come from? Seriously, where?

    It's pathetic.

    Don't watch Lost so don't know who you're on about. Could have been him I suppose. Probably wasn't though..

    Have heard it for a while alright but last night just tipped me over altogether. It sounds ridiculous.

    I assume tombone playing is a euphemism for blowjobs.

    It's just another example of the Americanization of our language.

    I'd stay away from Redout's posts so.

    Ah it beats horse. Regular in a pub I used to work in called everyone brother. I asked him one night why and he told me he was crap at remembering names so he got around it by calling everyone brother.

    Why do you use "like" at the end of sentences?

    "Like" what?
