I knew of "swag" as in junk yeah, but I never understood why "swag" meant your "personality" or "what you show of yourself". Never made sense to me.

It's just a word which the meaning has warped into something different over time.
I think it may have warped as getting swag at parties, meetings, gatherings, etc. and then turning it into a style of wearing those things then eventually it turned into your style of dress and that goes hand in hand in how you carry yourself.

I know here in Florida Swag is used to describe a person simply as they have swag or they have no swag, if they have swag it usually means they have a "nice" style of dress and are usually the people that are sociable. No swag refers to the kids who come to school wearing dirty running shoes and never match colors. you don't necissarily have to buy expensive clothing and a million pairs of shoes to have swag but as long as you know how to dress and keep yourself clean you have swag. butttttt I dont know about the rest of USA.

tl;dr
Swag= Dress nicely
No Swag= Dress trashy.

Now that you guys had entered the thread you have to post a picture of yourselves! >:U


I've been lurking in this thread for a few months now, all the while intending to put up my own picture, and still have yet to do so...
I'll probably do that sometime today though... maybe. I'm kinda lazy.

There's that, plus the fact that I NEVER take pictures of myself. Which means I'll have to put forth some sort of effort to take a recent one, and throw that up on here.
I think the only TWO pictures that I put up myself on facebook, are both 2-ish years old. I leave the rest up to friends/acquaintances to tag me in theirs. I'm not really a picture person :/

Swag; Adjective/noun;

Of or relating to The DuffTime.

Synonyms, "Dufflike"


Lol.

Swag originally comes from the wobbling around thing you mentioned Jhoi. It's cause the pimps over here walk with a limp sometimes even though there may be nothing wrong with their legs.

So when a pimp is all dressed up and walking with a limp, other people started doing it, like brainless monkeys.

Eventually, it became an underground sensation. Walking with that style got a name, and it was swagger. "You've got a little swagger in your step" was where it originated from, it was referring to the confidence or the way a person walked.

Eventually people misunderstood and bastardized the origin of what was being said. People started using swagger as a general type of compliment, and over time swagger became anything from confidence, style of clothing, quality of clothing, the way you talk, the way you do ANYTHING.

Even cars can have swagger now x_=
