Get the yuh get it i guess mug.A game played with the traditional board game "guess who" but with slightly different rules. The only difference is that all questions must be subjective in nature. There should be no way to be 100% sure if you are elimating the correct people or not. No one ever really wins, but it is really fun.
Sample questions:
"Is, or has your person ever been, a librarian?"
"Is your person racist?"
"Is your person a member of a wine-of-the-month club?"
"Does your person own multiple cats?"
Examples of questions not allowed in subjective guess who:
"Does your person have a mustache?"
"Does your person have long hair?"
"Is, or has your person ever been, a librarian?"
"Is your person racist?"
"Is your person a member of a wine-of-the-month club?"
"Does your person own multiple cats?"
Examples of questions not allowed in subjective guess who:
"Does your person have a mustache?"
"Does your person have long hair?"

Get the subjective guess who mug.The term is generally used by financial, technical professionals and project managers to describe a solid assumption of a numeric target. It is far more than a guess or even a good guess. One is attempting to accurately estimate a number associated with for example a budget or time requirement using the available limited data or in the worse case no data.
If the individual offering the SWAG projection is well recognized and qualified in his area of expertise and he is offering it within that expertise, the likelihood that the SWAG will be taken seriously is high, especially if he has a proven track record.
Someone when challenged on where he came up with his numbers says "well its a SWAG" and he lacks the credentials to support it, is not likely to be taken seriously. In other word, some people use SWAG as a casual term instead of saying I guess.

When challenged to project the budget for a project whose concept is new to the organization, a scientific-wild-ass guess (SWAG) may be the only means of generating a realistic set of numbers. Consult experts in the various areas that may be involved. Example: A new product that has a market pull but has no material, manufacturing processes or facilities but needs to be brought on line within a set period of time, will by necessity require some SWAG. Having a SWAG number helps to provide guidance even if it is not totally accurate. It is far better than having an open checkbook.

Get the Born Guesser mug.If there’s a yes or no question, people usually say this if they are uncomfortable responding with yes or no. OR, someone says something to them and they feel obligated to agree and don’t want to come off as rude, but don’t actually agree one bit!

Person 2: I guess...
Person 1: you’re like SOOO good at soccer right?
