i see it typed here, but can't quite figure it out.

is it like beaus?

i know it's derivative of boys. but how did it get to bols?

im usually good with the fucked up vernacular, but that l is a mystery to me.

12753773, Like "bull," but with the "L"s at the end not being stressed

12753782, i've never heard it in real life, either. is it a philly thing?

12753797, Yes, it's a Philly thing.

In addition, it can be used in ways that boy(s) can't. You can ask someone "who bol?", meaning, who is that guy? No need for a verb.
12753899, lmao @ who bol? if i ever heard someone say that in real life i'd die.
