random braker

Someone who brakes his or her car for no apparent reason. This person could be driving in front of you, or, God help you, may be the driver of the car in which you are currently driving.

TOM: (yelling out the window of his car) Hey! What are you braking for? There's nothing in front of you! Come on! Move it!
SAM: Tom, he's just a random braker, dude. His first instinct is to brake. They suck...

Bravery

Knowing something is incredibly stupid that makes sense to do, but you know you'll get your ass kicked for doing it. And still you step up and do it because no one else will. Or confronting you're worst fears but acting like it's nothing and facing down the fear.

A professor in a university once stressed a huge test that was coming up that was worth 3/4 of your total semesters grade. When the students got the test they were stunned. There was only one question:
What is bravery?
all the students got to work and wrote for hours, except one he tapped his pencil on the desk, smiled, andtook the test up to the teacher. It was handed back to him with a 100% at the top.
The students answer was:
This is Bravery.

Bravery Test

A term coined by Bob Ross, he would use it as a way to describe when you have to paint something that could very easily ruin the painting. Typically it'd also be something he'd tell you not to trace or copy the way he does it.

Also usable as any time you need to do something with high risk/reward.

Bob Ross: See, you have to decide where the tree lives. This is going to be your Bravery Test

braces

It's a normal, calm day until you visit the dentist. They give you the horrible news- you need braces. First you have to put these little things in between your teeth. Then you have to take mold and x-rays and get on these little metal torture devices, hand made by Satan and shipped from hell itself. After two years of them being tightened and getting screamed at by your orthodonist (unless you get a not demon-possessed one), you get them off. "YAY!" you think, until they hand you your retainer, which is a pain to make sure you don't lose it whe you take it off to eat and you have to make sure to wear it or else it won't fit anymore. In short, braces are the worse things I've ever had the displeasure to wear.

"NO! ANYTHING BUT BRACES!"
