[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does "bro-y" mean?[/quote]

Open up high school yearbook to the varsity baseball or varsity lacrosse team page. Textbook definition of bro-y.[/quote]
I had to laugh. Guess it depends on the HS. Our HS barely has a lacrosse team and the baseball team is more like [i]The Bad News Bears[/i]. They’ve been Mercy Ruled in their first two games. Heavy sigh.

But, I think you’re right on the description. FWIW, the boys I know at WM are the anti-thesis of bros. Figures, they were band kids. Sample size of two, YMMV. LOL. [/quote]

Opposite. My brother played soccer there, WM.  Younger than Jon Stewart:)- so not on the team.  And his friends were not the description I see on here.

IN FACT--MY brother highly suggests my son pick WM over UVA [b]because UVA is so douchey.[/b]  My brother is 'beyond the bro'-- a higher level of cool where they look down on that striver, tight-*ss, lemming, polo-stuff. My son attends a private HS, plays a sport and also gets turned off by that kind of guy.  The fleece polar vest and ball cap crowd.[/quote]

Clones and lemmings that have a really distinctive 'brown-nose' personality.  I think of [b]Doug Neidermeyer in Animal House [/b](typical UVA bro) vs Eric Stratton (from the non-prep) frat.[/quote]

Perfect UVA stereotype.  Not saying its true, but its as true as the theater/dork stereotype people love to perpetuate in WM.

Vast majority are neither or somewhere in between at both schools.[/quote]

Jon Stewart (WM alum) vs Mr. Bow-tie Tucker Carlson (kids UVA)

This is the profile I see.  Would Stewart appear dorky to a bro-y golf Lax crowd? Probably.[/quote]

Okay, this makes me laugh. I completely get what you’re saying, but I was there right after Jon Stewart and the fraternity he was in was full of LAX players. So maybe they got him (at that time) after all. It’s almost like WM kids can be multi-dimensional beings. [/quote]
