SWAG

(acronym, technical jargon) "Scientific Wild-Ass Guess"

1. An idea proposed by bringing together arguably similar understandings of established science, and then making a huge pile of assumptions, to reach a conclusion that you hope may not be completely wrong. "If it's gonna fall, it's gonna fall to the east, but that's a total SWAG so no guarantees."

2. (sarcastic) An obvious alternative, offered in response to some other alternative that is, itself absurd. "Not to discount his spiritual enlightenment, but just a SWAG here, maybe the dog just likes beef better than carrots."

3. A disclaimer that a well-considered guess is still just a guess; "My SWAG on this is a hundred pounds is safe and two-fifty will snap it like a twig."

SWAG

Scientific Wild Ass Guess.
I used to hear this term used often when I was a technician with a computer company. We would use the term when we didn't know what to do to repair something or why we chose to replace a part on a hunch.
Technician Tom: You fixed it! How did you know to replace the bridge rectifier?
Technician Bob: I didn't know. I just took my best SWAG.

SWAG

A lot of people using this word are incorrect for the definition for this word, the REAL definition is an aconym for "Secretly We Are Gay" or S.W.A.G. and it's origin by a group of people in the early 60's by a group of gay men in HollyWood (doesn't seem so hip now, does it?). This term was most frequently used as code on posters announcing gay orgies."

Which now makes the 13 year old you saw in S.W.A.G. pants look not so innocent, am I right?!

I'm no etymologist, but my skeptic organ is pinging hard. I understand the word "swag" pre-dates the 60's by a wide margin. The claim that it was invented in the 60's is obviously wrong, but still, it is possible the usage was as mentioned. Is there any evidence from the 60's? Actual posters? Written accounts?
