Swag

Swag is an almost indefinable term. It is loosely tied with confidence, but it mostly stems from the overall character of a person and you're really just born with it—or not. Some cases of swag are easy to mistake for retardation.

Swag is almost impossible to conceal. People with severe cases of swag can but will not

necessarily have:
- an epic walk
- epic dress sense
- raw animal magnetism
- not giving a fuck about what other people (who don't have swag) think

Swag is almost entirely stockpiled by Filipinos, Eastern Europeans, South Americans, Indonesians and definitely African-Americans, also known as negroes. It is also generally possessed by men.

Many swathes of Asia, Europe and Africa are almost entirely without swag and Russia has its own kind of swag which is a markedly different in style. Japan has a dangerous form of anti-swag, also known as anime.

There are so many black people with ludicrously visible swag* that this results in a new term: "black man swag". Famous owners of black man swag include Samuel L. Jackson and Donald Glover, but not Will Smith.

If you only remember one thing from this definition, remember this:

You can NEVER take away a black man's swag.

Swag can also mean money, in terms of stolen loot, or jewellery, also known as bling. As you have probably noticed, both theft and bling are very popular with African-Americans.

*However, Filipinos have the most swag per capita.

Person 1: No matter the circumstances, black men walk through life with swag
Person 2: True as fuck.

Person 1: Filipinos have so much swag. I don't know why God chose to give them so much fucking swag, but He did.

Person 1: Jessica, you cheated on me with a Filipino... again??

Person 1: God, I wish I had as much swag as he does.
