A Bawse is a human being who exudes confidence, turns heads, reaches goals, finds inner strength, gets hurt efficiently and smiles genuinely- because they've fought through it all and made it out the other side.
The double-handed praise was created for them.
In a bawse world there are no escalators, there are only stairs.
Example of Bawse behavior:
Calls office from a beach vacation to let her team know they can leave early for the long weekend.
My director is such a bawse, she called the office while on vacation to let our team know we could leave early for the long weekend.
Basically these are collector items in the vein of Pokemon Cards and Magic Cards, but predates all card based collectables. Like magic and pokemon cards, baseball cards contain statistics, but unlike magic and pokemon cards, the players with which these statistics refer to are real and not imaginary like players dipicted in magic and pokemon, which are made up to serve gaming purposes. Thus, baseball cards are not gaming cards and serve only to amuse and pleasure those who love baseball and their players (See keedon, baseball).
That damn keedon got so obsessed with getting that Ken Griffey Jr. baseball card that he flunked his midterms and got me to do his homework. Damn him and his obsession with baseball cards!!! (See keedon).
