Bohemianism

The practice of an unconventional way of living. People who practice bohemianism (bohemians) often form groups that share similar opinions and mindsets. In the classical sense bohemianism was often about music, art or literary pursuits. However, the modern sense of the word includes those who break societal rules. People classified as bohemians today are often not true bohemians, rather they are people who enjoy risque behaviours and a loose lifestyle that often includes illegal drugs, excessive alcohol and unprotected sex.
Bohemianism is so overrate now a days, is just drugs and dirty sex. There's no romanticism.

Boers and Bernstein

The greatest sports talk show on the radio. It is broadcast on Chicago's AM 670 or on the internet. The show features special segments such as "Who ya Crappin'", where listeners call in and call people out for saying dumb stuff, and "Friday Fung", where a topic is chosen and listeners call in to tell strories about the topic. It is on from 2PM to 6PM and is perfect for distracting you from work.

Terry Boers is a hilarious and goofy old man that makes some of the best comments about various public (and pubic) figures I have ever heard. His greatest line was after being confused about a caller's point he said, "I am all turned around like Heath Ledger." He also does outrageous promotions and sometimes you think he has had a few in the studio.

Dan Bernstein is a very smart Duke graduate who is also a pretty funny guy, but with a dryer sense of humor than Terry. He hates Barry Bonds and other raging ass hats who live in a state of denial about what really happens in the sports world.

The producer is Matt Abattacola who is "to drinking what Kenyans are to running." He prefers Captain and Cokes and is sometimes seen downtown walking around as the show is on the air. Great guy who is pretty fun to drink with.
The other day I was listening to Boers and Bernstein while drinking Alice White wine and was laughing my ass off.

Bohemian Shotgun

Right before reaching climax, the male pulls out and furiously slaps the female's vagina. He then proceeds to forcefully re-enter with a single thrust, and ejaculates while shouting "STRILET" (Pronounced stree-let). Which is the Czech word for shoot. Hence, firing the Bohemian Shotgun.
