A sailor. Disparaging.
This term, frequently used by non-sailors to refer to sailors, is most likely a contraction of the term "swabbie" or "swabby", presumably derived from the notion of sailors "swabbing the deck". "Swabbie/y" is currently in use only among the elderly; "swab" is the more common term among young people.
Typically applied to sailors of the U.S. Navy.

SWAB stands for Slithering Wanker at the Bottom. It is when one decides to plunge from a high area to the ground and they are an idiot for doing so and thus injure themselves and all they have left to do is slither around at the bottom.
