brown dog Posted February 1, 2017 Report Share Posted February 1, 2017 Ya, but SWAG is decades old and military in origin, whereas the other acronyms are internet inventions of the millenial generation. It's become a word in its own right; SWAG also gets used to mean to cuff or bluff something: "I haven't prepared tomorrow's presentation, I'll have to SWAG it" etc In military colloquialism, it's generally used to mean something along the lines of 'best fast intuitive approximation".
