POHM

The examples quotes are incorrect, as they are examples of acronyms which did not come into existence until the 20th Century. 'POMs' are called so because the pale skinned English convicts transported to Australia were so unused to the harsh sunlight that their skin went as red as a pomengranate.

Example? 'Look at that bloody pohm, he's spent too long in the sun'
