The Prestige and the BRO CODE

I'm talking about the movie in this post, so if you haven't seen it yet and want to see it:
SPOILER ALERT!!!

We were watching this movie in our english class. You maybe know it. Anyway it's about 2 magicians competing each other. There is this one guy who cloned himself to create the perfect illusion of beaming. And everytime he clones himself, the original must die afterwards to make sure there aren't 2 of the same guy. After the cloning, in this very moment, there are two of him. In the movie he killed the original after cloning it. The clone is still him, but what's it like for the other to die. I mean, he is a living person, although he is cloned. It doesn't really matter who the original and who the clone is, they are both alive in this one moment. Who decides to kill one of them. What is it like to die because when you look in your own eyes. What is it like, seeing yourself die over and over again. I think it's like the worst nightmare ever.

Ok, so after this a little bit dramatic excursus I will come to something really important in rule of living... SPOILER ALERT OVER!!!

I'm talking about the BRO CODE. Written by Barney form How I Met Your Mother. I know it's from a tv series, but hey, who cares. The most important part in the BRO CODE is that you don't sleep with your best friends ex. This is one of the more simple rules of the bro code. There are articles which can be dismissed I guess, because a normal person would never get in a situation as described. I'll just post the link here, because I don't wanna quote all of that right here...
Enjoy and follow the BRO CODE
