EDIT: Added soft- to the title, since it was pissing people off. Maybe I'm still wrong. Idk, it's just a meme.

would you build a house out of soft bricks? no.. they don't exist.
bricking is permanently fucking it up. as useful as a phone as a brick. aka a paper weight
The term exists, and has been used in rooting circles since at least 2012 that I know of, since that was when I rooted my first device and ran across the term.
While it certainly doesn't make much sense as a term, that's different from the term not existing.
Would you build a house out of a metaphorical term? It’s not literal. If a phone doesn’t boot it’s as useful as a brick until you fix it.
Soft Brick => You can build the house with a lot of them, but when the wolf huffs and puffs, it will fall.
Hard Brick => The house you build, will not be breakable by the wolf's huffing and puffing.
