Yeah, I had a feeling that'd be the turning point.

I need to make a point of using it around my parents and grandparents.

I'm on GAF/youtube too much. $:-\$ It's all over there. It's kind of the new "pwned."

yeah, I haven't heard this recently

and my username used to be swaggaz (actually made in the early-2000s to be the most generic sounding rap name I could think of at the time)

Wait, I've never heard of this

The only usage I've heard for the word "swag" is like when you go to E3 or TGS or Otakon or something and you get a bag of free crappy products and it's called "swag". Is there another usage that I am unaware of??

demi · « **Reply #15 on:** June 14, 2011, 04:06:23 PM »

Swag is something you just know. You don't have it.

Same here. Cleary Bebpo and I are just too white.

Is swag short for swagger or something? It's the new "pwned"? Huh?

Himu · « **Reply #18 on:** June 14, 2011, 04:55:40 PM »

Swag is attitude.

there is a clothing brand that's called swag. I feel bad for them.

I think the term "swag" peaked maybe 3-4 years ago. I don't hear it anywhere near as often as I used to.

Huh? It reached popularity due to the Soulja Boy song which is only a year or so old.

I'm almost 30, that means that by the time I encounter a meme, it's already dead. So right around now.
