before anyone else
"Bae," Urban Dictionary says, is an acronym that stands for "before anyone else," or a shortened version of baby or babe, another word for sweetie, and, mostly unrelated, poop in Danish.

How could his handlers have missed the fact that bae is the Danish word for poop? Did some punk Marco?

One less letter, still one syllable. I know every generation comes up with their own stupid slang, but that's just silly.

From the article
""Bae" — as I'm sure you know — is a slang term of endearment akin to "baby." It rose to prominence two years ago thanks in part to a popular song by 23-year-old Miley Cyrus."



It's time for Marco Ru(Bae)o to grow up.
