I think I've used "Bro" <10x in my life, maybe <5x. I don't remember ever using pal, but I do use dude, fella, and less frequently buddy. I also use "guys" in a non-gendered sort of way, but I've mostly switched to "folks" so as to not offend anyone.


I should have cropped this one before I uploaded. I'd never heard of these differences. I haven't tried to "fact check" them for accuracy, but it sounds reasonable.


I thought this was very cool.


I "know" a guy via a FB Tool group. He restores a lot of tools to original condition. In this case, he wondered "could I polish that billhook?" and set out to see how it would turn out. He did in fact manage to make it shiny.
And yes, it's polished, not chrome or nickel plated. (although he does that for some items) I think he said that he started at 120 grit and finished at 3000grit and then used 3 different compounds. The handle was ebonized and oiled.
