Hey, my post makes allowances for exceptions to the rule. There's nothing necessarily wrong with using it, so long as it's appropriate to the situation. Saying you've got swag while you're doing something athletic is okay. Saying you've got swag while you're relaxing in a hot tub is not.Peeta wrote:I have a friend who uses the word, but she doesn't do it to look cool. She likes the word.

Saying you've got swag at every chance you can use it is not okay, either ;PGinny Weasley wrote:Hey, my post makes allowances for exceptions to the rule.

That's strange, because I have never seen a hot tub at your house...
Justin Bieber signed a girl singer who's 26 years old and is Canadian.
I thought "swag" was in the same neighborhood as "loot" or "bling", i.e. "I got so much swag at the Justin Bieber concert. You might not be able to tell, but I'm wearing three Bieber shirts right now."

It's in the same neighborhood as to where those terms come from, but they don't mean the same thing.

That is what I've always heard it used as...I read a lot of mommy blogs, and a lot of them have used "swag" referring to freebies they have picked up at a convention or something. Somewhere I read, and I don't know if it's accurate or not, that swag can stand for stuff we all get. :shrug:Caswin wrote:I thought "swag" was in the same neighborhood as "loot" or "bling", i.e. "I got so much swag at the Justin Bieber concert.

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. ♡

That may be it, I don't know, but the usage I've heard is for mannerisms. A friend of mine says that it's "(S)omething (W)e (A)sians (G)ot"...forgetting that "A" can also stand for "Americans".RROD wrote:That is what I've always heard it used as...I read a lot of mommy blogs, and a lot of them have used "swag" referring to freebies they have picked up at a convention or something.

I really don't care what swag is/was/will be/what it's used for. I don't use the word, so it doesn't effect me.
And did anybody else think the same thing I did when I saw the cover of The Bieb's album "Boyfriend"? I'm talking graphic cover, not music cover...

That was the cover of the single; the album itself is called "Believe", and should be released some time this summer. I think it's...interesting.
