go bro

When considering job, salary, or equity related things, women should "go bro", meaning they should consider what the most over-confident, potentially qualified (but oftentimes not), bro would do or ask for and just do that.

Bradley: "Congrats on the new role! You gonna ask for more salary / equity?"
Allie: "To be fair, it's a lateral-ish move at the same level but without people management, so it makes sense that I'd make the same."
Bradley: "Bah humbug! Go bro and ask for more."
Allie: "I know what the salary band is for this role, and I'm not going to get over band."
Bradley: "(mansplaining) Bros don't care about bands; they define the bands. Just go bro and ask for 15% more of each."

crane theory

The theory that all cranes are derived from previous cranes. All cranes build subsequent cranes. However, this creates a contradiction. From where were the first cranes derived? This is where crane theory steps in. God created a certain number of initial natural cranes. These cranes were perfect. They can nowadays typically be found in remote areas where it would otherwise be impossible to build a crane from scratch. Cities emerged in their current locations because there was originally a high concentration of the original cranes there.

Clay: "Hey dude, check out that crane."

Brantley: "That one is kind of out there by itself...it must be one of the originals."

Clay: "Originals?!"

Brantley: "Yea, God built the first cranes - it's how all subsequent cranes were built. Haven't you ever heard of crane theory?"

Clay: "OIC."
