I see a lot of jabronis hanging around Lemmy. Sometimes I wish they’d just go away, but I wonder if the ecosystem actually needs them.

    I had no idea it had such a specific meaning. I heard it through Always Sunny, where it’s used as a very generic insult.

    I’ve heard some similar terms from wrestling/circus terms. Is a Jabroni distinct from a “Heel” or is it basically the same thing?

      I assumed they were the same but I’m far (far far far) from an expert.
