“brot3″ is one of the most unbelievable things to emerge from the internet’s neologism forge tbh

• it starts with “OTP” for “one true pairing”
• OTP takes on hyperbolic meaning, dropping its inherent exclusivity such that “OTPs” becomes standard lingo
• polyamory is incorporated under “OT3″, in which the 3 replaces P so as to rhyme, rather than signify a component of the acronym
• convention is repurposed to describe platonic relationships with “brotp”, again using a rhyme rather than acronym replacement
• final expression for “platonic 3-way character dynamic that is important to me” expands to… “brother true three” or something like that
