INTRODUCTION

u ....

her we know it or not, each of us lives a life

governed by an internalized code of conduct.
Some call it morality. Others call it religion. I call it "the Bro Code."
For centuries men have attempted to follow this code with no universal understanding of what such an arrangement meant:
Is it okay to hug a Bro?-'} If I'm invited to a Bro's wedding, do
I really have to bring a gift?t Can I sleep with a Bro's sister or mother or both?*
Now, for the first time on paper, I have recorded the rules of social decorum that Bros have practiced since the dawn of man ... if not before. The Bro Code previously existed only as an oral tradition (heh), so I have journeyed the globe to piece

together and transcribe the scattered fragments of the Bro Code, pausing only to flesh it out myself (double heh). While not intending to write a "Guide to Being a Bro," if men should treat it as such and pass this compendium of knowledge from one generation to the next, I have little doubt it would bring a tear to my eye. But not out of it. That would be a violation of Article
41: A Bro never cries.

It is my hope that, with a better understanding of the Bro

Code, Bros the world over can put aside their differences and strengthen the bon?s of brotherhood. It is then, and only then, that we might work together as one to accomplish perhaps the most important challenge society faces-getting laid. Before dismissing thi~ pursuit as crass and ignoble, consider this postulate: without the sport inherent in trying to bang chicks, would men willingly have sex for the sole purpose of producing smelly, screaming babies?"

Of course nor

Centuries from now, when a Bro applies the rudiments of the Bro Code to score a three-boobed future chick, the only thanks I'll need is the knowledge that l-in whatever small capacity-Bro'd him out ... though if he could figure out how to bring me back to life, that would be pretty awesome, too.

WHAT IS A BRO?

ou've probably heard the word «Bro" used liberally at your local bar or gym. Perhaps you've seen it recklessly confused with «dude" or «guy" in an adventurethemed soft-drink commercial. Maybe even you yourself have unwittingly tossed out a (CBro" when asking a stranger for the time. But an important distinction must be drawn: just because · a guy is a dude, doesn't mean that dude is a Bro.

Q: What is a Bro?



A: A Bro is a person who would give you the shirt off his back when he doesn't want to wear it anymore. A Bro is a person who will bend over backwards to help you bend someone else over backwards. In short, a Bro is a lifelong companion you can trust will always be there for you, unless he's got something else going on.



1





Q: Who is your Bro?
A: Your mailman is a Bro, your father was once a Bm, and the boy who mows your lawn represents the Bro of tomorrow, but that doesn't make him your Bro. When someone has faithfully upheld one or more of the codes in the Bro Code, then you may consider him your Bro. Warning: Exercise caution when bringing home a hot chick-your brother may or may not be your Bro.


Q: Can only dude~ be Bros?
A: You don't need to be~ guy to be somebody's Bro, provided you uphold the moral values contained within this sacred canon. When a woman sets a guy up with her busty friend, she's acting as a Bro. And if she sets him up with other hot friends after he slept with the first one and never called her again, then she's officially his Bro.

BRO C ABU LA RY

s you thumb through The Bro Code, you may come across some words and terms you've never seen before. Many have been boldfaced and placed in the
Glossary on page 193 so you can familiarize youxself with the

Bronacular.
While Bros are always encouraged to spread the truth of the
Bro Code, they are also cautioned against overusing ccBro." Such

Broliferation cheapens the important mission of this book and,


nearly as important, makes you sound stupid.

ORIGIN

· the story of the Bro Code is not nearly as simple and elegant as God handing down some
·

stone tablets to Broses, its origins weave all the way back to the dawn of humanity.
In the beginning there was no Bro Code ... which was unfortunate for the world's first Bros-Cain and Abel. Lacking an agreed-upon set of social principles, Cain killed Abel and committed history's first Broicide. As punishment Cain was doomed to walk the earth alone. Why? Because without a wingman, he had absolutely no chance to meet chicks.
Centuries later a Bro from Sparta and a Bro from Troy got in a fight over a chick named Helen. I know, "Helen" doesn't sound hot, but allegedly she had a "face that launched a thousand ships," so you can just imagine what her rack was like. The two Bros waged a terrible war over this chick- a war that could have been avoided had the Bros been familiar with the most

5



basic Bro Code: Bros before ho's. Troy pur up a good fight, but the Spartan navy was very powerful. Soon hordes of Spartan seamen burst through the Trojan barrier, and Helen got half the gold for the next eighteen years.
Hundreds of years later, appropriately in Philadelphia
(the City of Bra Love), a little known delegate named Barnabas
Stinson scratched on parchment what is now considered the earliest attempt to record the Bra Code. Over the years Bros have amenqed and added rules, but Stinson's elegant words remain as the glorious preamble to the Bra Code.
While the original document is housed two stories



beneath sea level in an undisclosed, vacuum-sealed, butlerproof chamber, I was able to gain access long enough to manufacture this replica.

T

DID YOU KNOW ...
Article 1 can trace its genesis all the way back to
Genesis. No, not the Peter Gabriel/Phil Collins pop triad, but the biblical book. T he discovery of t he Dead Sea
Scrolls has unearthed a once-lost passage that documents the . earliest infringement of the Bro Code.

BOOK OF BARNABAS 1:1
And everything of need was provided in the Garden.
Fruit, water, companionship. But one day, Adam came upon a naked chick, Eve, and desired her olive leaf And so
Adam wenteth behind an apple tree to know Eve, totally ditching his Bro, Phil, who had Knicks tickets. Courtside.
Long story short, humankind became self-aware, paradise was lost, and well, we all know what happened to the Knicks.

ARTICLE 2

A Bro is always entitled to do


something stupid, as long as the rest of his Bros are all doing it .
NOTE: Had Butch Cassidy come charging out of that cabin alone, people would have been like, "Dude, come on." If only one Spanish dude had decided to run down the street in from of a bunch of angry bulls, people would've been like, "Dude, come on." If only Tommy Lee had worn eyeliner in the early days of Motley .Cri.ie, people would have been like, "Lady, come 011." The license to be stupid is why we have Bros in t.lie first place.

If a Bro gets a dog, it must be at least as tall as his knee when full-grown.
COROLLARY: Naming a lapdog after a pro wrestler or a character from a Steve McQueen movie does not absolve a
Bro from the spirit of this article.

A Bro never divulges the existence of the Bro Code to a woman. It is a sacred document not to be shared with chicks for any reason ... no, not even that 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 wbat it is-a piece of fiction meant to entertain a broad audience through the prism of stereotypical gender differences. I mean, sometimes it really is like we're from different planets!
Clearly, no teal person would actually believe or adhere to the vulgar rules contained within." Those boots are adorable, b-t-dub. • Psst-hcy, guys!

When a Bro gets a chick's number, he waits at least ninety-six hours before calling her.



SIDE-BRO:
ASK UNCLE BARNEY

Q: I'm confused-ifa woman gives me her phone number, doesn't that mean she wants me to call her? \Vhy do I have to wait so long?



A: Broflation-an unreasonable increase in female expectations about how Bros should act. You call a woman the next day, she tells her friends you called the next day, and soon enough, women everywhere will expect guys to call them the next day.
Before you know it, Bros rhe world over will find themselves trapped in relationships, and all because you couldn't wait ninety-six little hours.

56



Q: Okay, I've waited ninety-six hours. When's the best time of day to call?
A: Call during the middle of the day. You'll have a better chance of catching her voice mail, which ultimately means less conversation. With any luck you'll be able to set something up without ever having to talk to her. Note: Never call after 9 PM-Iatenight phone calls are the province of the booty call, and only the booty call. See
Article 92 for further elaboration.

··

Q: I've always heard you wait three days?
Why does the Bro Code specify four?
A: If you've always heard that a Bro should wait three days before calling, you can bet that women have, too. By waiting an extra day, you can make a chick feel special.

COROLLARY: A Bro also never reveals how many chicks another Bro has banged.
When a chick meets a Bro, there are three things she wants to know:
I. How much money does he make?
2. Is he shorter than her?

3. How many chicks has he banged?
Eventually, she will figure out the first two, but a Bro never ans.wers the third question. If, however, a Bro feels compelled tO answer (i.e., sex is being withheld until he supplies a tally), he can calculate an acceptable number using the following formula:

HOW MANY CHICKS IS IT SAFE FOR
A BRO TO SAY HE'S BANGED?

n = (a/10 + s)0 + 5 n = number of chicks a= Bro's age s = inquiring chick's slut factor (1 = nun, lO = former nun)

...Dress Codes In Junior High And High Schools? Name: Institution: Should There Be Dress Codes In Junior High And High Schools? Introduction The dress code for junior and high schools has been a hot debate over the years. It has sought to address various issues and have resulted in different levels of controversy. For instance, in the early 1970s boys with long hair sometimes got attracted to their classmates. Resultantly, schools required young men to cut their hair short. Moreover, at the beginning of the 1990s several organizations and parents pushed for a dress code as a strategy to curb gang-related violence (Valdez, 2015). Over the years, the desire to create a professional school environment and reduce struggle over designer clothes made uniforms and dress codes become a familiar topic. However, identical strategies are more restrictive than dress code policies. Dress codes are strict as in the case of schools in California and Napa. For instance, schools in this areas required students to put on solid colors and logos or banned images on clothes. The primary objective of this argumentative essay is to provide adequate evidence that there should be dress codes in both junior and high schools. Claim 1: dress code may increase student safety and reduce crime. Each year several schools adopt a certain form of dress code. Although some challenges are emerging on the constitutionality, court’s rulings have supported dress codes that...

Qr Codes

...list I compiled of positives and negatives concerning QR codes. Pros Easy to make. All you really need is a free QR code generator, and there are plenty of them floating around the Internet. Cost effective. Since most of the QR code generators are free, making the actual codes is inexpensive. The cost of printing materials can also remain relatively low, since they can be used on business cards or stickers. Stores can print their QR codes in ads, which they already invest money into. Anyone can make a QR code. Saves paper. People can scan a QR code to do things like enter contact information or store a coupon on a cellphone. Instead of having to carry paper coupons, people can just scan a QR coupon and have it available in their phone. Very quick transfer of information. Since the advent of DSL internet and now the 4G network for cellphones, people have gotten very used to getting information very quickly. Relatively small in size. This makes the codes great to put on business cards, in a corner of an ad, somewhere on a coupon, or anywhere there is a small bit of space. These codes can be made much smaller than the information they contain. So instead of placing a long, ugly, URL, on an advertisement or resume, simply place a small QR code. Cons Potential for over usage. Marketers should be aware that placing a QR code absolutely everywhere can be overkill. Reputation issues. Many people are making their QR code that link to social media, such as Facebook. This might...

Dress Code

...black shirt with black pants or a white collared shirt with black shorts?” Dress codes at school are something that all kids hate, but at the same time, it’s something that is going to help them through life. Dress codes are really effective in high school because it reduces cliques, bullying, and gang violence. Students start focusing on their looks instead of their school work, but now with dress codes they help students concentrate on learning and not on their appearance. Dress codes help reduce the smuggling of weapons because most codes restrict baggy clothes. The students will also be ready for future jobs that will require them to wear a uniform because they have been wearing uniforms their whole academic life. Have you ever gone to a school and seen tank tops and baggy clothes there and then went to another school with students wearing uniforms? What was your first impression of the schools? Uniforms on student’s helps the school look organized and makes the students look very mature. The impression you might get of the students is that they get straight A’s in their classes. Students that wear tank tops and other such clothes do not look very mature and might not be the best group of kids to hang out with. There is no one wearing baggy pants or even skinny jeans because of the dress code policies in the school and that helps students to follow future dress codes for future jobs. Dress codes are guidelines to life; they help students look professional and at the same time...

This paper will also explain how the code of conduct can be implemented by the company, checks and balances to measure adherence to the code, and lastly, three ways the restaurant can engage in socially responsive activities in the community in which it operates. The Cheesecake Factory has a rather large code of conduct. There are a few specific ideas within the code of conduct that is of significant importance to the Cheesecake Factory’s business. It is imperative that this code of conduct is established because staff members must understand the Cheesecake Factory’s ethics and belief system in comparison to other organizations because it may differ with regards to cultural content, values, and ordering of beliefs (McShane & Von, 2005). The first significant idea in the code of conduct is conflict of interest. The company specifically states that an employee must avoid situations in which a conflict of interest would exist or have the appearance of a conflict of interest.

...VISIBLE LIGHT NETWORKING WITH QR CODES A PROJECT REPORT FOR CSE 561 RYDER ZIOLA AND WILLIAM WEBB 1. Motivation and Design Considerations Telecommunications networks and the internet have enabled many different forms of communication - email, phone, instant messaging, etc. For most users, the fact that all of these are mediated by external networks is not important. However, some users, for instance, human rights activists operating in certain countries, may wish transfer digital data in a fashion that is anonymous, leaving no identifying traces on either participating machine nor any electronic record of the communication in the network. Physical storage media, such as CDs and portable hard drives are possible candidates if mail or an inperson handoff is allowed, but such media can also carry physical evidence, such as hair or fingerprints, and also serial numbers or metadata attached to the stored files. Any of these things could potentially compromise collaborators. Another possibility is to instead execute file transfers between portable machines in a way that uses no physical media and does not rely on any telecom network or exchange of addresses. Smart phones are natural candidates, being portable and increasingly ubiquitous, so for this project, we attempted to leverage common built-in functionality to create a secure channel with the desired properties. We note that many smart phones can communicate via IR ports, but there is always the possibility the that IR transmissions...

Code of Ethics

...CODE OF ETHICS Compliance is the responsibility of all the Company’s directors, officers, managers, and employees.(Capital One,2011). One is responsible for learning the details of the policies, procedures, laws and regulations applicable to one's job and for seeking guidance when needed. It is important to avoid misconduct that violates the law, this Code, or Company policies, but also the appearance of impropriety. The point, which a subject is not explicitly explained in this Code, does not relieve an employee of their responsibility to maintain the highest ethical standards under all circumstances. If one has any concern about whether their actions or inactions could violate a law, it should be discussed with their manager. While no Code of Ethics can or should replace thoughtful behavior or common sense, it can help cultivate a culture that values and rewards honesty, integrity, and accountability. (Avon, n.d.). The principles detailed in the Code will guide in “doing the right thing” and in preserving the Company’s reputation for acting with integrity at all times. TRADE REGULATION Most states have enacted trade regulation laws to ensure fair competition. These laws prohibit price-fixing and other "anti-competitive agreements, deceptive acts, and unfair competitive methods." (Pension Consulting, n.d.). Some forms of joint activities are legally permissible, but others are not. Under no circumstances, should you illegally or improperly...

Code Meshing Vs Code Switching

...Code Meshing vs. Code Switching: Which One Should be Taught in Schools? In the article “Twitterish,” John McWhorter explains the need for different forms of literacy and multimodality – Standard English and new digital literacies. He also, in a way, talks about code switching and code meshing because he shows how people can switch between different literacies and how they can also incorporate both Standard English and digital literacies into speech and writing together. John White’s paper goes into much greater detail about what code switching is and how to teach it in schools. He says that code switching – the act of changing from a culturally imbued discourse to Standard English, but not necessarily vice versa – is a priority to teach to...

Code of Ethics

...Iranian Journal of Public Health Tehran University of Medical Sciences The Code of Ethics for Nurses F Zahedi, M Sanjari, [...], and M Vahid Dastgerdi Additional article information Abstract Nurses are ever-increasingly confronted with complex concerns in their practice. Codes of ethics are fundamental guidance for nursing as many other professions. Although there are authentic international codes of ethics for nurses, the national code would be the additional assistance provided for clinical nurses in their complex roles in care of patients, education, research and management of some parts of health care system in the country. A national code can provide nurses with culturally-adapted guidance and help them to make ethical decisions more closely to the Iranian-Islamic background. Given the general acknowledgement of the need, the National Code of Ethics for Nurses was compiled as a joint project (2009–2011). The Code was approved by the Health Policy Council of the Ministry of Health and Medical Education and communicated to all universities, healthcare centers, hospitals and research centers early in 2011.

Hammurabi's Code

...different kingdoms under the protection and governance of the one great umbrella of Babylon. As a ruler of a large society, Hammurabi recognized the need for organized law and knew that in order to govern effectively he had to establish his authority as a fair and impartial ruler. It is generally accepted that Hammurabi’s Code was developed around 1780 BC, during his 44 year rule as king. The Amorites believed that kings were appointed by the gods to administer the law and protect the kingdom. Hammurabi’s Code was a set of 282 laws which established rules for bringing accusations against another and the corresponding punishments to fit the crimes committed, through an “eye for an eye” mentality. The development of Hammurabi’s Code gave structure and order to the kingdom by addressing each of the three social classes; the poor (mushkenu: a free person who was essentially lower or middle class), the rich (awilu: a free person of the upper class), and the slaves (wardu). The code also shows consideration for the protection of women and children and for the weak and the poor (that they might not be destroyed by the strong or the rich and powerful). The code also addressed unpaid debt, allowable reasons for a man or a woman to divorce and provisions to be made for spousal and child support. It also established severe consequences for bringing false accusations, or for verdicts and punishments rendered in error. “If a judge tries a case, reaches a decision, and presents his...

Code of Ethics

...Code of Ethics Teresa Sieck ETH/ 316 July 2, 2012 Ed McCullough Code of Ethics A code of ethics is a collection of principles practiced and followed by management of businesses and corporations around the world (Spiro, 2010). A businesses code of ethics works with a company’s mission statement and policies of conduct that gives employees, partners, venders, and outsiders an understanding of what the company stands for and believes in (Boylan, 2009). It should address the differences or variations in both company’s industry and its broader goals for social responsibility (How to create a company code of ethics, 2012). It should be strong enough to serve as a guide for employees with questions to resolve issues on their own if needed (Trevino & Nelson, 2007). Wal-Mart is one of the largest corporations in the United States. As one of the largest corporations the company has a social responsibility to their employees, customers, and the community. The code of ethics works with and around these principals. Wal-Mart has three basic principles, 1) respect for the individual, 2) service to the customer, and 3) striving for excellence (What is Wal-Mart’s Code of ethics, 2011). The following is an example of what a code of ethics could be and what values a business may have. Vision Statement: People are assets not possessions; employees, customers, and communities should be treated with fairness, respect, honesty and integrity. The corporation’s global vision is to...

Gray Code

...What is Gray code? From Wikipedia The reflected binary code, also known as Gray code after Frank Gray, is a binary numeral system where two successive values differ in only one bit. The reflected binary code was originally designed to prevent spurious output from electromechanical switches. Today, Gray codes are widely used to facilitate error correction in digital communications such as digital terrestrial television and some cable TV systems. One good way to explain the use of Gray code is to take a look at how a hard drive work, in extreme simplicity. A hard drive contains a disc where information is stored. The information on the disc is stored in ones and zero´s, binaries. The disc is divided into sections which each has a binary signature. Here is a picture to explain: As we can see here, section 0 for example has the binary signature 0000 and section 15 has the binary signature 1111. When a hard drive is running it reads section by section and if the hard drive for some reason has a failure and the reader jumps from section 15 to section 0 the reading changes from 0000 to 1111 which means that every bit read is faulty. This could change alot depending on how the information is parsed. A hard drive could be exposed to a lot of external forces and the reader can jump and missread at any time. This cannot be forseen, but it can be prevented to some extent. Enter Gray code. Gray code is a way to sort the binaries so that one binary never...
