I recently discovered that the best way to ask strangers on the internet for a favor is to use bro-speak. I've used this technique twice already with positive results. One person changed something on their website for me, and the other thanked me for the feedback and is "considering it". In order to use bro-speak you must first be bro-literate. Urban Dictionary defines this as "the state of being literate in the language of bros", or "the knowledge of how to speak and write like a bro".

To help you, I've created a rudimentary bro-speak translator, and I'm currently accepting suggestions for missing words or phrases that you think should be included. Try it out here. It works particularily well with certain phrases like "Hey man, how's it going? Are you going to the bar after work?", but not so well with others.

THAT'S WHY I NEED SUGGESTIONS.
