Bohemian life style

His bohemian life style is best illustrated by a barely translatable pun about him:

"Čika Jova deci, čika Mika Antić dva deci"

"Čika Jova deci" means "Mr. Jova to the children", referring to Jovan Jovanović Zmaj, a known children's poet. "Čika Mika Antić dva deci" means "Mr. Mika Antić two deciliters", referring to drinking from a glass, likely of alcohol.
