Build order
Gamers use BO as shorthand for "build order." You're most likely to see this acronym used in discussions of real-time strategy (RTS) and multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games, to describe the order in which players should craft units and items.
For example, many StarCraft 2 strategies (such as skytoss and FFE) have specified build orders that players typically follow in the early, mid, and late game. Sticking to these build orders allows players to execute the strategies as intended.
However, if an opponent counters the strategy you're using, you may have to stray from that strategy's specified BO, to counter their counter. Otherwise, you'll end up SOL.
Example
What's your typical BO for Twisted Fate?
Well, I always start by grabbing a Corrupting Potion and a Stealth Ward
How well do you know your texting slang?
People typically use BO when calling attention to someone's stinky body odor. For example, your friend Mike might text you "Sorry about my BO at lunch today; I came straight from the gym," to apologize for how unpleasant he smelled earlier. (It's too late to apologize now, Mike! We already had to smell you!)
BO is a fairly common acronym (and occurrence), so you may encounter it in text messages, on forums, and even on social media, when people are discussing body odor. Many of these discussions revolve around the "correct" way to tell someone who noticeably stinks about their bad BO.
