I have not had much time to read, did anybody ever make the final decision on what bokeh was? It always turns into a shallow dof contest.

Oh. I get it now. Bokeh is like peanut butter.

Ding Ding Ding! We have a winner! Just don't get your tongue stuck to the roof of your mouth.

I have a stupid question, must the bokeh be really creamy so that the background is completely unrecognizable?

I am afraid of those DNMCs.

it's just one of those things without a definitive definition...
