In popular culture, the Bro Code is a friendship etiquette to be followed among men or, more specifically, among members of the bro subculture. The term has been popularized by Barney Stinson, a character from the television show How I Met Your Mother. Katherine Connor Martin, head of content creation at Oxford Dictionaries, recognized Stinson as 'the quintessence of a certain iteration of the contemporary bro'.[1]

Based on an episode of CBS’s hit comedy How I Met Your Mother, the follow-up to The Bro Code includes every scam, con, hustle, hoodwink, gambit, flimflam, stratagem, and bamboozle Barney (portrayed by Neil Patrick Harris on the show) has ever used—or ever hopes to.

The notion[edit]
Early references[edit]
https://sitheavy.weebly.com/download-sega-games-for-emulator.html. The notion of an unwritten set of rules that govern the relationship between male friends is present in popular culture at least since 1991. In the Seinfeld episode 'The Stranded', which aired on November 27 that year, Jerry Seinfeld says the following monologue, in one of his stand-up bits:
All plans between men are tentative. If one man should suddenly have an opportunity to pursue a woman, it's like these two guys never met each other ever in life. This is the male code. And it doesn't matter how important the arrangements are [.]
— Jerry Seinfeld, in Seinfeld, 'The Stranded'[2]
'Bros before hoes'[edit]
2011 hyundai service manual. Access database download for mac. https://sitheavy.weebly.com/blog/hyundai-genesis-coupe-manual-pdf. 'Bros before hoes' (that is, 'friends before women') is a well-known, vulgar slang expression about how men should not abandon their male friends in order to pursue or embark on relationships with women.
The 'bros before hoes' expression is often regarded as the 'golden rule' of male friendship, and it has been common slang at least since 2001.[3] It was used by The Office character Michael Scott in 'A Benihana Christmas', and was later popularized by Barney Stinson.

Inspired by the notion of Bro Code that they developed in their sitcom, How I Met Your Mother creators Carter Bays and Craig Thomas, and one of the show's writers, Matt Kuhn, wrote a book called The Bro Code. Published by Simon & Schuster, the book covers 150 rules written in articles of what 'bros' should or should not do.[5] The book was penned by Barney Stinson and also credited with Kuhn, who also wrote the entries of Barney's blog, mentioned in the series. The book was first shown in the episode 'The Goat'.[6] Greig Dymond of CBC.ca calls the book 'a tongue-in-cheek guide to etiquette for horn-dog dudes.'[7] At the end of each episode, a vanity card is used to display a random rule from the Bro Code, similar to what is done on Chuck Lorre-produced shows.

As a man, what can I say about The Bro Code?
Nothing! Because there is no Bro code. And if there was a Bro Code, Article 4 clearly states: A Bro never discloses the existence of the Bro Code to a woman.
So this is for all the Bros in the audience. No gurlz aloud!
In The Bro Code you should expect the expected. These laws are universal. They are inbred into every man and so are the jokes, but who cares? They're funny.

If you watch the show 'How I met your Mother', then you're not going to really get anything new. pretty much all the jokes and codes have been mentioned. So, it's not quite as wonderful as I had hoped. However, I am relieved that the author's did stay true to the show. Instead of gushing or ranting like I usually do, I figure I'll just give you a few rules 'you ought to be living by'. if you want to be a bro (and yes ladies, the book answers our question. we, too can be a bro!)

I got this ebook from my Boss. Cool, isn't he?
Well, the book was really entertaining. So good that I could imagine Barney lecturing while re-enacting his tricks! But the problem is, some parts of the code are not suitable for some readers. In fact, some people might find these parts offensive. So I am just recommending this book to my fellow bros out there. Tired? Stressed-out? Grab this book now and make life more awesome!

Hmm. it's apparent from the written reviews that those (not to point fingers, but particularly girls) who are rating this 'book' one or two stars are taking it quite seriously. Relax–this was not meant to be the Bible for all those of the male gender. However, you could picture a select few losers legitimately following these sacred rules, and then others just calling out different articles for the sake of pretending to adhere to this formal 'Bro Code,' because admittedly, it is fun.

It was Legen.wait for it..dary!!! Legendary!!
In one of the episodes of “How I Met Your Mother”, Neil Patrick Harris’ character, Barney, talks about a book called “The Bro Code”, a book about how a man (i.e. BRO) should act. I like Barney’s character and specially NPH’s portrayal of it. NPH is the best part of that show. So I figured, the audiobook about that book read out by Neil Patrick Harris should be great.
But it gets extremely old extremely fast. The book is a series of rules about how a man should act and it is only funny as one line.more

Barney Stinson is one of my favorite TV characters. He unapologetically banged his way through most of the female population of New York City using his Playbook and The Bro Code. I purchased this book as a gift for my brother who is a huge fan of the show as well (he named his pets after some of the characters). Apparently I'm that person who reads a book before giving it to the person it was bought for (very carefully though. you'd never know anyone even opened it). This book is written in th.more

How I Met Your Mother tie-in book. HIMYM is my favorite show currently on the air; I found the book disappointing. Mostly it just recounts a bunch of stupid guy clichés, and a bunch of guys’ stupid clichés about women. For the most part, except for when it’s cribbing concepts directly from the show, it lacks Barney’s wonderful weirdness—I mean, he’s not some dull frat boy, which is what this book sounds like; his rules and schemes are much stranger, are always slightly off-kilter.

Alright, so it's pretty funny. It took me about half an hour to read the whole thing (got it as a gift for my brother, was too curious to not read it).
Admittedly, it has almost zero substance. Admittedly, it's sexist as hell, but it's all in good fun, same as in the show.

The Bro Code isn't particularly funny to somebody like me who saw people his twin brother's university bro-kin crash and burn in one of the ugliest On The Road-like episodes of my life. Bros are a cannibalistic race who contradict their own rules, and any Bro Code, like all religious texts, cannot be adhered to perfectly. I cannot divulge what went down, that would 'violate the Bro code'.

I am happy and grateful to say that I am no bro. That is, if being a bro means that the main things you care about is getting some action, getting drunk, and caring more about sports than cerebral stuff.
Women are seen as nothing but sex objects, 'chicks.'
