Get the frebo mug.The word ‘Firebone’ is used to identify petrol based engines. Most often used directly to describe pistons which are tuned by hand and used in vintage racing motorbikes. The fuel explodes in the cylinder creating fire, and the piston connecting rod resembles an arm bone. Hence ‘Firebone’.

Get the Freebooting mug.The word ‘firebone’ is sometimes used to describe the energy, focus and motivation people conjure up in themselves, in their minds, to perform amazing feats of strength, daring, skill or endurance. Much like having a burning desire or force within their bodies or bones that push them to excel. People that can summon this kind of inner strength and purpose are thought to have fire in their bones. Many professional athletes, daredevils, adventurers, extreme sports participants often exude firebone characteristics. Surfers, skateboarders, motorcyclists, motor racing drivers, BMX riders, MTB riders, Parkour, Paragliders, Kite surfers all exude firebone personalities. Firebone strengths can also been seen in emergency workers, soldiers and those that perform at the highest levels in their chosen sport or profession.

Get the Fredophobia mug.When something goes horribly wrong for an individual amongst his family or group of friends – typically following an act of betrayal or unforgiveable poor judgment – and that person becomes an outcast. Although unloved and unwanted, the person is still allowed to hang around because of his previous relationship to those wronged. Adapted from the Fredo character in the Godfather movies.
Unfortunately, history has proven there is no way to tactfully make the outcast depart. Fredo Corleone was shot in the back while fishing in The Godfather Part II, a particularly cruel yet fair conclusion to any Fredo Scenario.

Will: "I wish we had a fishing boat."
