swift

When one has to make something up, or when one has made something look like a greater amount of effort and work has gone into the production of it. Often, but not always, involving the duplication of others work or terminology in order to produce something that looks like ones own.

A term synonymous with bullshitting, blagging, making up or too 'wing it', though more often used within the architectural profession.

"That Nathaniel sure was laying on the swift real heavy"

or

"I sure had to write a loft of swift to get those plans through building control"

Taylor Swift

A popular musical artist who says things that she doesn’t really mean, e.g. she talks about how much she likes underdog groups and how she thinks they’re brave, but when members of those groups reach out to her, she and her agents spit in their faces.

Now remember, everybody: don’t be like Taylor Swift. It’s uncool to say things that you don’t really mean.

Taylor Swifted

When a person makes a post on social media that is about you, but the author doesn't want to actually put your name in the post, like a Taylor Swift song about her exes.

Laura made a post about me, but was too scared to put my name to it. I feel like I've been Taylor Swifted into a vague post.
