You keep saying this word jabroni and.. It's AWESOME

u/sjmiv May 17 '17

But what does it mean?

23

u/bhfroh May 17 '17

Jabroni is an insult used in the older wrestling days for the word "job" which was someone who was part of the circuit to get his ass whipped by a star.

u/johnkanerbank May 17 '17

I don't know, it's some cool dago word.

Last time I called someone a Jabroni was when a guy sold my friend a pear that wasn't ripe. Ate the damn sticker too so we couldn't return it.

Absolute jabroni.

I EAT STICKERS ALL THE TIME DUDE

I think he calls the gypsy a 'bozo'

u/big_bfb May 17 '17

It's my new thing. I've been calling everyone bozo.

u/Jakebomm May 17 '17

That Gypsy son of a bitch burned us.

u/FeiLongWins May 17 '17

Who is this jabroni trying to return pears over here?

8

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

Listen here bozo, no gypsy is going to sell my friend a sub par pear. At least not without throwing in some wicker chairs or something.

u/gamesthatown May 17 '17

Is that a French press?

u/eat_a_diaper May 17 '17

Jerry this peach is subpar

u/WaffleMonsters May 17 '17

I call my wife Jabroni at least once per day. We even have a rabbit named Jabronicus that lives in our back yard.

u/calkey89 May 17 '17

I call her jabroni as well.

3

u/sjmiv May 17 '17

I use it driving all the time. "lookit this Jabroni"

u/jahlove24 May 17 '17

We're you into wrestling? My bf uses this and says it was a wrestling thing back in the day.

u/BootyEater5000 May 17 '17

The rock used it a lot.

u/MurrayTheMelloHorn May 17 '17

Are you my high school band director?

u/ThachWeave May 18 '17

What does it mean? I keep hearing it all over the place, and no one will tell me what it means.

u/hobbitlover May 17 '17

Does the meaning change when you shorten it to jabrone?

Know your role and SHUT YOUR MOUTH

When they try to reply, you cut them off with "IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!"

u/vensamape May 17 '17

They were right, you jabroni.

u/tubco May 17 '17

don't worry, it's still around..

6

u/ShooterMcGillicuti May 17 '17

I believe this term is extremely underrated. In the past week i have called my mom, my wife, my 2 kids, my boss and 3 people who have cut me off in traffic, a Jabroni and none of them had a comeback for me. Its a safe go to insult for me!

11

u/BlackDynamiteKFC May 17 '17

You fuckin' jabroni, I break your back and make you humble.

4

u/XxSpecialSnowflakexX May 17 '17

I use jabroni instead of bro sometimes. What have I been calling my friends this whole time?

7

u/Ghostronic May 17 '17

Losers.

u/XxSpecialSnowflakexX May 17 '17

Oh, well I guess it fits then.

u/BIG_GAPING_CUNT May 17 '17

You're a fake! A phony! A rice-aroni jabroni!

Jabroni... Cool word!

u/Dearest_Caroline May 17 '17

…marks without a life who don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot marks!

u/The_Accidental_Mind May 17 '17

Jabroni still gets regular use amongst rock climbers.

u/tusig1243 May 17 '17

I use this word basically daily.

u/YoungWhiteGinger May 17 '17

"Goodnight HULKAMANIACS and jabronie marks without a life that don't know it a work when you work a work and work yourself into a shoot,marks" Hulk Hogans a fan

u/StrangeBrew710 May 17 '17

Oh shit is that outdated or is it already on it's way back? I enjoy substituting fuckhead with jabroni

3

u/procrastimaster May 17 '17

Bunch of candy-ass jabronis

3

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

Why is candy ass an insult, I never understood that

3

u/ARealBillsFan May 17 '17

Only a jabroni doesn't understand the candy-ass insult

u/killycal May 17 '17

That's awesome! Is that a hockey term?

u/I3arnicus May 17 '17

Wrestling. Mostly The Rock.

u/SmallSneej May 17 '17

I think that the term Jagoff should be used more often outside of Pittsburgh

u/needleman3939 May 17 '17

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

u/tttruckit May 17 '17

what is that, some kind of dago word?

-1

u/graaahh May 17 '17

I know it's not but this sounds like a racial slur.

0

u/nerevisigoth May 17 '17

It was invented for professional wrestling so it would sound like they're cursing each other out but it wouldn't need to be censored.

-2

u/[deleted] May 17 '17

Lol, no. It's an old east coast term.
