A question for the Think Tank.....
I've seen it used here and on a few of the other AR forums... What the hell does SWMBO mean? I've never seen it at any other web forum so I assume I missed the joke. Judging by the context, I would guess it to mean wife or significant other.

Back when I read the personals for giggles, the SWM part would translate to Single White Male. Just a guess but how about BO = Boogaloos Often? I don't have a clue, never saw it before that I noticed. Don't mind the babble in the background TM.

Dan, after doing a search on SWMBO, I found that JeffeOsso is the most recent poster to use the term. I will post the question in the Gunsmithing forum and see what the answer is.

Jeffe cleared up this Scooby mystery, SWMBO means "She who must be obeyed"

Of course, Ann that only applies when she's around. When the "better" half isn't present, she is probably refered to as "PITA"

Lovely Pita, live in maid...

Having a Beatles flashback, sorry. The only thing I come up with on that one, is well, I am so convinced it's wrong, and I don't want to offend our Greek neighbors and all, and so TM whut's that'n mean?

Aw Fudge! I knew that! Sorta. Hey TM, thanks again, and if you drop your wallet in Key West don't bend over to pick it up until you've kicked it outside the city limits. Did you know they actually sell PITA sandwhiches down there in South Florida? I wonder what's really in them. Wonder who thought it up...and why? Those folks have any self respect at all?

The next broad I date I'm gonna give a T shirt to with SWMBO on the front and PITA on the back, this way I know what to call her no matter how she's faced!

I had a buddy from the UK--single gent--who referred to my wife as the EPO.



I later got a translation from him.



"Entertainment Prevention Officer".



Not always true. Sometimes she can be very entertaining.

That's why I date short women - there's less digging when the relationship ends!
