Baw---An Historical Perspective
Posted on 11/2/16 at 3:06 pm

I recall the time that i became familiar with the term and realized that I, in fact, was a Baw. It was the mid-eighties. A friend's Dad was driving a bunch of us young, sixth or 7th grade baws to meet some girls at the movies. I believe it may have been "Footloose" at that old theater in Lakeview. He was detailing the finer points of how us baws could get action wit da girls.
2 things
1. When do you first recall being a baw?
2. What was the name of that theater on West End in Lakeview?

Oh yes, baws, I remember hearing this term in Scotland, meaning balls.
Or as the English would say, bollocks

Acceptable because people misused it. Its only correct if your mispronounce historical as "istorical."
quote:
In all main varieties of English, the use of an as the article preceding historic (an historic) is an unnecessary affectation. The rule for the indefinite article is that we use a before words beginning with a consonant sound, and an before words beginning with a vowel sound. The h at the beginning of historic is a consonant sound, soft though it may be. As far as we know, there are no modern English dialects in which the h in historic is silent (please correct us if we’re wrong), so there’s no reason for anyone to use an instead of a before the word.

Robert E. Lee was the very first baw if I remember correctly from grade school.

I've been reading up on ancient baws lately
Those B.C. baws handled their business the straight up ole fashioned way; no bs
Modern baws would be losing women/fights left and right
