Welcome to LPSG! Have a good time here, most of us do.

Just curious, why the spelling "boi"? I've always wondered about that...

thanx againg guyz...and its slang for boy lol

Yeah, I think we all figured that part out. The question is, since it's the exact same number of letters / keystrokes, and is pronounced exactly the same, then basically... what's the point? What does that spelling express that the proper spelling does not?

Not especially getting at you with this, obviously you're far from the only person to use this. But since you're here and the topic came up...

Here's the opening to the wikipedia take on 'boi':

Boi is a deliberately altered spelling of boy that has become recently fashionable, and is sometimes used as a synonym for male when referring to young adults. 'Boi' is often used within the gay community to refer to a young-appearing (and in reality relatively young) bisexual or homosexual male, especially one who is somewhat effeminate, or who merely wishes to distinguish himself with a different term from heterosexual boys.

Thank you, alex... you are a veritable fount of wisdom (and resources!)

Welcome to the family. :D
I use boi alot when I type and talk, especially around my fellow bboys. Also, if you look up boi on wikipedia and other internet searches, it talks about the meaning of the word and gay guys. Very interesting and something I did not know. Does this make sense? It's late and I'm fucked up 'cause of allergies.
