Originally derived from two ancient celtic words "Bran", and "um". Meaning large testicles. In the middle ages, the word "Branum" was used to describe enviable bravery and loyalty towards ones "true" family. In modern times, the word Branum has been known to drive wimpy little "I can't cut the apron strings" momma's babies into a typical narcissistic rage. Often to the point that they display the projection of their own faults in definitions onto others as they are known to do.

The best example is: "It takes a real man to be BRANUM"...

Barnum Statement

A Barnum Statement is a phrase used by conmen (for example a psychic) to try and make people think they have some deep insight into their psychology or life.
They are also commonly used in horoscopes

Barnum Statements are statements which most people will agree with, regarding themselves, while not realizing that almost every other person will also agree with them regarding their own lives

examples are:
"you have a good sense of humor, but not everyone sees it"
"you tend to think about things before taking action"
"You have had some major challenges in your life"
"you recently had a disagreement with someone you care for"

"The psychic told me that I was quite intelligent, but other people dont always see it"
"Sounds like she was just feeding you a Barnum Statement"

branimir

As the name says-peace on the first place. But, deeply, in the middle of the smallest cell there is a big battle between two profiles. One is young fire and red wine, but other is quite ice and and romantic poet. Sometimes, the ice burns so strong like it will destroy everything and than creates more beautiful reality. His life is written like the most misterious story. Known, yet so unknown. He has the sweetest blood-like cherry wine. He has the deepest eyes-like the idea of space. He is an inspiration to the writer, a sun to the flower, a sea to the ships and sky to the stars. Everybody gets enchanted when they see him. But, he is enchanted with only one thing in life! There is no place where he doesn't belong. Wherever he's gone, there's missing. He can be everything he wants to be! He just needs to believe!

But there are always the ones who believe for him!

Timless is the name of Branimir's heart !
