I occasionally hear the term 'alpha' used outside of TRP, but never 'beta'.

Until the other day I heard a friend use the phrase "yeah those guys probably wouldn't even do anything about it, they're so beta...."

I'm wondering if this was a slip (I accidentally used the term Chad Thundercock once and I hope it was forgotten), or if it is a term used in conversation that I've never heard of.

Of course I don't talk about TRP outside of this subreddit, and he's never mentioned anything else, though he exudes alpha traits so he's the type of person I would expect to be a TRP veteran.

Just wondering what the odds are of someone using that term if they aren't on here? (This shit matters with field reports, etc.)
