A term used in AAVE, which is a contraction of the phrase "
Boy, if you do not" followed by a course of action and a consequence,(however the AAVE often omits to course of action due to it being conspicuous enough to determine via context, and it invariably leaves out the actual consequence unless it genuine)
literally speaking, this is a threat, but is often used in a jocose manner with those whom it is socially acceptable to be crass with, especially to burlesque and ridicule an
individual'
s behavior; in practice it typically
something more along the lines of an irreverent request to perform a stated or otherwise apparent course of action, or advisory discouragement of the opposite. The phase may also have "git'choh" added on to the end, representing a contraction of "
get your"; when used in this manner the term phase can also be used as a filler word to attach insults to in the form of attributing pejoritove adjectives to ones "ass"
