Bromance writ large in work settings. The management culture of an organization as dominated by men, typically Caucasian, that work together to intentionally or unintentionally build and maintain a glass ceiling at the organization such that women cannot penetrate and advance in their career at the organization. While occasionally a female with tomboy-like or other bro-like qualities manages to break through this barrier, they are rarely in the top management or leadership positions.
"Hey Edna, don't bother applying for that management position because the brostablishment here will never let you in."

Someone who approaches you from a crowd of onlookers and offers to purchase one or more of the items that you're displaying for them. This can be a very awkward experience, of course, especially if you'd never actually had any intention of selling whatever it is the person is interested in, but had merely been showing said possessions to the gathered huddle as a way of promoting a local business/service, getting a little "bragging limelight", etc.
Whenever I set up in the town square to show my musical instruments and tool-collection to the locals, I do indeed always make sure to mention right off that nothing I'm displaying there is for sale --- I'm merely trying to show everyone how well I can play music so they'll hire me to perform live entertainment for them, and how good I am at building and repairing things so that they'll know who to call for help with home-improvement projects, but it never seems to be totally effective... like as not, there's at least one pushy buystander in the ranks who tries to pressure me into parting with some of my equipment!

Get the Brösta mug.Humorous term to describe where you "publicly" solicit the knowledge ("Excuse me, everyone --- do any of you happen to know anything about ___?", or, ""Hey, Folks --- are any of you familiar with the technical properties of ___?") of anyone within yelling-distance about a particular question or problem that you encounter at that time and place.
Doing a bystander Google-search can yield surprising results --- more than once I have gotten out of a perplexing dilemma in this way.
