Well 1, this is the internet so we should be careful who we consider "friends." 2, it might just be the translator / a cultural thing. Saying friend in English in every comment just looks weird.

Like I call people Bro sometimes, but I'm not actually their brother 😅

I appreciate the feedback on my post. It takes a lot out of me to write these type of posts but I really enjoy them when I do 🙂
