The Bro Code

Penetrating Parody

The premise: we are all presided over by innate rules of conduct and behavior - some call it morality - but Bros in the know call it the Bro Code. This side-splitting prize comes fully loaded with penetrating parody. Although a quick read, "The Bro Code" is suitably weighted with entertaining one-liners. Men, keep this awesome book on your coffee table, or your desk. Women, buy this book for a peak into the psyche of a Bro in the know. This effortless and gratifying book makes a great gift.

BroCode is a Great read!

A very funny book. Writen as-if from the viewpoint of Barney Stinson. Barney if the character played by Neil-Patrick Harris on the comedy 'How I Met Your Mother'. The book is writtten to be read very easily. It's broken up into article points, approximately one-per-page. So it's easy to pick up and read from anywhere in the book.

Barney is characterized as being a very overt Womanizer. No woman could resist him, and he would do almost anything to get the woman (for their one-night stand). But his character believed whole-heartedly in the adage 'Bros before Hoes'. And that he would do anything/everything in his power the help his 'Bros' score, and that they should do the same for him.

In the TV-series he makes reference to 'The Bro Code' many times. Claiming it as an actual legitimate printed text, not just an imaginary code of honor amongst fellow males. This book is that printed text.

Many humorous refences/instructions on how to look out for your bros. Whether it be hiding him from an ex-girlfriend, to lying for him to help him score the uber-babe.

He does site that some 'chicks' (women) are better bros in some cases. Like they know what a prospective one-night stand may wanna hear about you, to seal the deal and what-not.

To wrap-it-up. If you are a fan of the hit Television show, a fan of good-natured humor, or just wanna have a good coffe table book you know your friends won't be able to resist picking-up and thumbing thru. I recommend this book. I've had many a friend just casually pick it up and after a quick glance start reading passages aloud.

Gay or Straight a Bro is Still a Bro

The bro code is fullof usefull bro standards and rles. Out of all of the man rule books i have read this is by far the most reasonabl and publically acceptable behavior. I highly reccomend this book for any bro or man who wants some great rules to live by.

Great for fans of Barney Stinson!

Written as if the character from the show was alive and well and living in New York City. This book was great fun to give as a gift to my son, who is a big fan of the show "How I Met Your Mother". It brought about a great deal of laughter and even more when he shared it with his friends back at school!

Barney Stinson and Matt Kuhn have made it EASY for us BROs!

Here I am, wingman to many friends but constantly wondering about two questions.

"Am I the BEST wingman a bro can have?"
"When I choose my BRO, what test can I use?"

Well, Barney Stinson and Matt Kuhn have come to the rescue with a set of easy to remember and analytically based rules and tests that will give guidance to all wingmen and bros out there.

Barney Stinson has inspired me, motivated me, and made me feel good about myself and my ability to be the best bro my buddies can ask for. He is my Oprah!

I heartily recommend this book for all high school boys who want to learn the sacred responsibilities of being a bro. They should use this book in health class as it will stop these young men from making many mistakes that all of us bros make before learning how to be a bro.

Funny stuff

I bought this as a gift for my sister, but being a fan of the show ("How I Met Your Mother"), I ended up reading it before I gave it to her. This is classic Barney, so if you're a big fan of the show and you find that whole totally mistaken male mentality thing amusing, this is a great book. It's definately good for light reading and entertainment. Guys, I wouldn't count on using any of this advice in real life!

Humorous and Mildly Educational

The Bro Code by Barney Stinson is a humorous book that details about 150 rules that a brother or the colloquial ¿bro¿ should live by. Some of the rules include guidelines that dictates etiquette and morality of a bro. Although the book presents itself at first as a series of purely sexist one liners, there are occasional valuable rules that dictate rules that provide important structural guidelines to being a good friend and a bro. Don't pass this book up too quickly thinking that its content is purely a mixture of the moral code of a college frat boy.

This book contains several sections detailing the etiquettes of apportion, loyalty, and cooperation among one's bros. The book also contains explanations available to codes that detail exceptions and in-depth limits of the codes. However, the book does include several humorous codes that supply the reader with a mix of contemplation, reverence, and levity. But even so, this book does provide a guideline that can be applied to more than the specified bro. Some of these rules are available to be taken and used in multiple aspects of life other than the bro so I do recommend others to try read this book. It's wide selection of emotions and topics enable a lot of people to be able to connect with its writing. A warning about the book though, read it with a grain of salt and take its sarcastic humor lightly. This book has a lot of male centered humor but it also does have some credibility in its writing.

Barney Stinson shares his wisdom.

This book has no story but rules for bros or a manual to live by. It is a quick read which will make you smile. It takes known rules like "bros before hos" and adds tons of those that are lesser known. It would make a great gift for any wingman or How I Met Your Mother fan. It is funny, entertaining, and sometimes informative.
