I try to understand your post, and my conclusion is that you arbitrarily chose to abbreviate “body odour”(?) as BO? That’s the only possibility I can think of what it could mean in order for the post to make sense
I don’t think it’s too arbitrary but may be generational and/or regional. I grew up with BO being a common abbreviation used for referring to body odor.
I used to think abbreviation overuse was the result of things like SMS and twitter, but then I found out O. J. Simpson had a nickname “The Juice” long ago, so I guess it’s just an American thing.

OJ was his initials which is also the initials of orange juice, it’s a somewhat creative nickname.
But it wouldn’t be if the initials were not already associated with the drink, hence me realising the thing goes way before the internet.
WW2 America was an abbreviation and acronym ridden hellhole. A real SNAFU.
Yes. Sorry. It was about body odour.
