A term originally coined by French philosopher Michel Foucault to refer to the practice of modern states and their regulation of their subjects through "an explosion of numerous and diverse techniques for achieving the subjugations of bodies and the control of populations".
Regulation of customs, habits, health, reproductive practices, family, "blood", and "well-being" would be straightforward examples of biopower, as would any conception of the state as a "body" and the use of state power as essential to its "life".

Get the boow mug.A Bigow (pronounced big-gow) is one who commits an act, due to an ignorant motive, seeming almost too funny that the "Bigow" itself would ever concieve such a thing. The action can be carpetflumping, a disruption in blunt rotation, or merely performing an act deemed retarded.
Ultimately, the description of a Bigow is defined by not only this particular name placed upon that person, but as well the action they've committed.
Therefore a Bigow is solely a person whom performs things in an unnecessary fashion, deserving the placement of this name upon them and the action they've done be the credibility to their entitlement of this name.

Aye Duncan, hurry up and rip this shit.
( Inexperienced undertaker commences bowl rip, which was deemed too large for the capacity of his lungs, causing him to blow into the bong. This causes the bowl itself to become a projectile due to the burst of bongwater forcing its escape to the only other exit of the device. Water, also being projected in the air, then settles into the carpet and eminates an aroma so dank, it immediately envelops Duncan in a feeling of embarrassment as his dignity flees the scene. )
Victim: Dammit, Duncan. You're a fucking Bigow.

Get the Bigow mug.When it seems everything is falling into place nicely, the better things are the more emphasis on certain letters. Biiiiiisssooooowhiiiiip. This can also be followed up with left and right hand finger snaps, usually done with some sort of rhythm.
"yo Barry I called in sick, lets go get drunk!"
"oooh ya guy...biiiiisssooooowhiiiiip!! *finger snaps*"
"bisowhip indeed"
"oooh ya guy...biiiiisssooooowhiiiiip!! *finger snaps*"
"bisowhip indeed"
