The Alt-Bro is having way more fun than the person who wrote this.

The Alt-Bro has existed in western culture with only minor changes in superficial indicators since about 1920.

So has this article.

This is missing a section about the Alt-Bro buying bad drugs from Sean Bateman.

I keep getting for alt-bro, but my finger keeps missing and I get ctrl-bro. Not nearly as much fun.

The Alt-Bro doesn’t shit talk. The Alt-Bro “discusses what people are like.”
Okay, on second thought I think I might have missed the joke. Is this a self-portrait?

The Alt-Bro who reads this will think he’s an exception.

I'm having flashbacks to Portland in the early nineties, in grad school.

I am so unbelievably happy to have reached a stage in my life (early thirties) where I no longer believe that the confidence these young men project actually means that they are right no matter how learned they act or how correct they present themselves as being and also that I don't care what they think of me. God, not caring what privileged young pseudointellectuals think of me is such a fucking blessing.

The Alt-Bro lives in a loft space with three other Alt-Bros. Together they arrange “good people gatherings” and ingest psychedelics and play drone music and make ephemeral screen-prints of vaguely Japanese foliage. At the beginning of these gatherings, the Alt-Bro says to the other attendees, also Alt-Bros, “What matters most is not the art we plan to make today, but that we all came together, to be in this space.”

I dunno, sounds like fun. I'd be down.

Always ensure that your brosperiment has a Control Bro.
