To leave quickly and deliberately.
Origin: Vietnam War. Bo di means leave and Chay means run quickly.
“Bo di chay” spoken quickly in Vietnamese sounded like “book it” to the U.S. soldiers.
When they returned home, they spread the term across the whole country. Which is
why everyone claims they used it growing up during and after the Vietnam war.

Get the Bookmug. A book is a thick peice of card board with pages inside. A book is made to read and enjoy. One of the most important thing they say Is "never judge a book by its cover". That means if the cover of the book looks bad, the adventure might not be bad. A book helps you grow imagination and creativity. If you don't read, you will be in bad health.

Get the Booksmug. Something that the bulk of smart and creative people (some of average intelligence as well) with 'actual' potential use. Reading books - fictional and non-fictional - as a hobby, has been slowly but surely returning ever since 2015 as it has been proven that readers - people who aren't part of the 'quick fix' culture - have a higher chance at being succesful in life. Many people who don't read are basically the little bitches who bitch about everything - including school, where you literally learn the basics of some important topics - and end up in the ditch or a cheap house downtown with a low pay and 2-3 kids. The reasons why not everyone is reading is simple; It's the quick fix culture's fault. Many simple-minded people fall victim to this 'quick-fix' culture.
Victim to the 'quick fix' culture (most likely a 'gangster' black guy or wannabe 'gangster' black guy) : Why are you reading a book, dawg?
Person of average intelligence who has managed to escape the 'quick-fix' culture: Because it's fun and calming yo. And books are , like, basically the hacksaw that frees you from the chains chaining you to the brick wall that is metaphorically the 'quick-fix' culture.
Victim to the 'quick fix' culture (most likely a 'gangster' black guy or wannabe 'gangster' black guy): Whah? Get a real hobby, ya bitch-ass.
Person of average intelligence who has managed to escape the 'quick-fix' culture: I knew you wouldn't understand it, bro. It's probably because black people like you have an average iq of 80, literally 15 points away from being borderline retarded.
Victim to the 'quick fix' culture (most likely a 'gangster' black guy or wannabe 'gangster' black guy): What? But you're black ya dumbass.
Person of average intelligence who has managed to escape the 'quick-fix' culture: Yea, and it took me quite some time to understand why people like books, but now I do.
