nigger-brave

Members of a group become cocky and bold when they realize there are at least five of them to every one of any other group.

Lil Big Dawg and T-Bone were mild mannered and polite in the drunk tank but when they got on the cell block with all the wannabe gangsters they got nigger-brave real quick.

PC Bravery

False bravery that comes from hiding behind a computer screen. Includes (but is not limited to) saying things that you would never typically say in a face-to-face conversation, making empty threats to people you don't like, and/or making up lies just to get a rise out of people (also known as trolling). These individuals are usually quiet and backward in public, but talk shit about everyone they can while they are on facebook or another social networking site. When confronted in person, they back down almost instantly.

That's some great PC bravery you've got there....let's see how brave you are when I meet you in person and kick your ass

brave new world

A book in which people are bred and grown in factories, where one egg can produce up to 96 different babies, all identical. They are predetermined to be Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, and Epsilon, with Alpha being the most intelligent and Gamma the least intelligent. They are conditioned and brought up, brainwashed in a sense, to love what their jobs are going to be. This caste system is strictly rigid and interaction between different castes is prohibited and undesireable. Each class, even the lowest, would not want to be any other class because they simply do not know how to live any other way, they do not know any other way of life. Everyone is happy. Everything is done in the name of progress and consumption. It is a perfect world.

Makes you think twice about wishing that the world was perfect. It scares you because we are heading for that world at this very instant.

Brave New World is an awesome book. If you don't like it, you either don't understand or you're running from the truth.

Breakup Bravado

A state of mind one is in after a breakup. Large life changing choices are made, though rarely followed up on. Upon reflection, one questions what the hell one was thinking.

Jill: Weren't you going to join the army after Alice left you?

Jack: I was, but it was just breakup bravado.

As brave as a falling star

Poetic way of telling someone that they are extremely brave or heroic. But it is also used ironically when their bravery goes too far and turns into madness.
The term "falling star" is used because symbolically, the rocks that turn into shooting stars have the courage to enter the Earth's dangerous thick atmosphere in order to make skywatchers happy and allow them to make a wish.

Person 1: Have you read in the newspaper that this guy conquered all of his biggest fears and revealed all of his secrets to the public in order for his crush to accept having him as her boyfriend?
Person 2: Wow, so it is true that love makes you as brave as a falling star.
