Due to a woman's hips being wider than a mans, in the olden days they were referred to as broads. A tough old broad is an older woman who has seen the hardships throughout history (wars, depressions, the birth of Ryan Seacrest etc) an has kept on keeping on, despite all odds. She can chew up a tin can and spit out fishing hooks if she feels like it.
Check out that tough old broad, she must be like 80 but she just handknitted a shotgun and killed that mugger.

Get the Tough Old Broad mug.A high-risk or high-frequency bronado zone. Possible high-risk areas include: sports bars, sporting events, establishments with free or bottomless drinks, party busses, fraternity houses, bachelor parties, buffets, VIP areas with bottle service, and pretty much anywhere bro-iness and substance use create ideal bronado conditions. It should be noted that being located inside any of the aforementioned areas means you are deep into the danger zone and should take emergency measures. If possible, seek a nearby bronado shelter.

It's generally a bad idea to pass through that bronado alley — especially after the bars close. I must've seen at least 5 bronados the last time I ventured into that bar.

Unlike tornado shelters, there's no universal wayfinding signage to guide you to safety, so emergency preparedness and education are key to ensuring your safety. Bronados form when a group of amped bros form together. Be on the lookout for visible warning signs, including but not limited to: drunken high fiving, fist pumping, backward caps, v-neck or popped collar shirts, excessive hair product and/or cologne. Audible clues include loud use of the words bro, champ and boss.

Get the Uncle Brodad mug.A street known in each of three large cities as the historical, cultural, and commercial center of the city. In the Chicago neighborhood of Uptown, Broadway is home to the Aragon Ballroom, Riviera Theater, Uptown Theatre, and Green Mill Jazz Club. In San Francisco, Broadway Street celebrates the city’s culture through adult oriented venues such as the Condor Club, the hungry i Club, the Showgirls theater, and the City Lights Bookstore. As I grew up near San Francisco, I always figured that’s why it’s called “Broad”way. So, when traveling with my fiancée in New York, and she asked me if I wanted to catch a show on Broadway Avenue, well… let’s just say the resulting misunderstanding led to a substantial fight.
Tourist 1: Hey, do you want to pick up a show on Broadway?
Tourist 2: I don't know. In this city, would it be "The King and I" or "The King and Di"?
