We're talking about the definition in a more formal context. Of course I don't go around saying hey "that dude is an alpha" or "i'm an alpha."
Don't project, don't assume you can read minds and emotional states over the internet.
Of course we here in Australia think of anyone bandying about "alpha" as a tosser .. how else do you suppose they'd be thought of?
They're literally right there with people that use "Bro" in a sentence and espouse paleo diets.
