Brogramming is just a joke. And like all Internet jokes, they end up misused in job postings as a result of the author's effort to appear relevant.

- drivingmenuts 15y agoI almost stopped reading the ad at "we like to party". I did stop reading at "get crunk". Serious, that's how they're blowing their startup money?
- Sapient 15y agoYep, crunk was where I stopped as well. Nothing else in the ad really offended my delicate sensibilities until that.
