Bromotion 

The act of taking a relationship with a male friend to the next level.

This could also be something as significant as giving your bro an actual promotion on the job front.

Jack: Me and Sarah broke up man
Josh: Oh dude. im sorry

Josh: Dude, you always got your bros man
Jack: Yeah I know
Josh: You always got your bros, you'll go from girl to girl, but you always got your bros
Jack: I love you man

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
