Popular Phrases Alternatives #3: "Y.O.L.O."
Hey bro! You've most likely heard someone lately say the dreaded phrase Y.O.L.O.. These words are usually accompanied by some act of such stupidity that you wish the speaker of the phrase just ran head-long into a wall; maybe he did. This phrase simply just bugs me because it's never accompanied by an act of any significance. So I challenge you, when you wish to do something stupid, when the urge comes over you as it does me, leave out the calling of "Y.O.L.O." and instead just pursue your act. Or as an alternative say the whole thing, "You Only Live Once." Or just say nothing; anything but Y.O.L.O..

Popular Phrases Alternatives #2: "Cool Beans"
So, this post is actually going to be a bit backwards. I was told yesterday that I should incorporate the popular phrase "cool beans" into my new Popular Phrases Alternatives series, so that's what I'm going to do here. While talking to this friend she said the aforementioned phrase "cool beans," but after mentioning that I should add it to my series she could not tell me what the normal/alternative phrase would be for "cool beans;" so I've had to improvise. For future reference, rather than saying: "That's so cool" or "Awesome"or "SWEET DUDE!" or even when talking in an only moderately interested tone such as... "That's cool" or "That's pretty tight, man"
SAY: "COOL BEANS!"

Popular Phrases Alternatives #1: "Come towards me, brethren"
Many of you have probably heard the phrase "come at me, bro" at some point or another. I dislike this phrase so much so that I have come up with an alternative phrase to use when challenging your bro. The phrase is this (the beginning IS copied, the rest is not):
Come towards me, brethren. Our actions, soon to come, shall be quick paced and violent in nature. When we depart from this short ordeal you shall be incapacitated and I victorious. So yes, advance my brethren.
