It's a state of mind, much like painter splashing paint onto a blank canvas, it's the state of free thinking, not packing your thoughts into neat little boxes of conventional rationalizations, saying whatever is the first thing to pop into your head, with out fear that it very well may be the stupidest thing ever utter throughout the history of humanity. It's good technique to avoid the constipation of social awkwardness. Boyaring requires full on zen concentration, do not attempt it unless you can handle the fallout.
Fuck normal social contracts, I'm boyaring this shit, circumventing Jesus, and going directly to jail. And all YOU get is this lousy t-shirt.
