I think older brother core is ridiculous

[xrossmediabar]

Like. What even is older brother core?

 It's literally just the color green and punk rock and baggy jeans. I think it's super stupid. 

I am an older brother and I am nothing like the style says. Nor is my older brother. What the helly?

No I am not an emo skater who likes green and mountain dew and the XBOX

I am a geek who likes blue, reading, Fanta and the PS3

It's basically Rodrick Heffley from Diary of a Wimpy Kid but turned into an aesthetic, a stereotype of a particular kind of edgy big brother some people had.

Pretty much this. I'm the oldest child so I haven't experienced it but I remember my cousins had something like that. As a kid your older brother would be kind of edgy in the 2000s because teenagers and stuff.

i have… never heard of that before in my life. maybe i’m better off for it

[strangetowngirl]

Yeah, it definitely represents a specific type of guy. I don't have an older brother but it's kind of how I pictured teenage boys as a kid, lol

First time I heard the term Old Brother core, it was on Reddit few weeks ago, and honestly I still got almost no idea what is it lmao (I wasn't curious to take a look)
I learned something new today thanks to this thread

i have an older brother i didn't even know this was a thing
like i guess it's just a stereotype of older brothers based on media that doesn't reflect reality

[pooks]

i think 'older brother core' is maybe a little too generic and wordy for the kind of vibe it wants to represent. if i named this aesthetic it would be called kylecore -- i remember maybe like 2016-2018 there were a few times i saw that kind of dude bro xbox 360 doritos archetype come up and that's what they called them, PLUS my older cousin is a kyle and he used to be like this (at least in my kid brain) when i was younger

also i just found a kylecore / olderbrothercore liquid mouse?? LMAO? it looks exactly like the skeuoss one

I'm kinda surprised to see it pop up cause I think it's pretty specific but yet evidently universal enough that a ton of people seem to understand it. The first time I saw it, I could kinda get it but I couldn't really put my finger on why. I kept thinking, "who in my life as a kid was like this for it to resonate with me this much?", since I don't have any siblings. I still don't have an answer to that.

I don't know. I just think it shows up in media a lot.
