Swarlay
A slang term used by Australian youth, particularly in eshay subculture, to refer to police officers. It’s often used in a mocking or disrespectful context. The origin is unclear but likely stems from the subculture’s tendency to manipulate language for humor, identity, or rebellion. Swarlay reflects the eshay ethos of defying authority and creating an in-group slang..

She is the girl of your dreams. You can come to Her About Any And Everything , She’s Very understanding And Puts Others Before Herself. She’s a really Cool person But Under That Mask Of smiles She Is really hurting deep inside. She’s the wifey type. She’s shy at first but when you get to know her it’ll only be laughs and aggravation. She’s really sweet but when it comes to her friends she will hurt any and everybody. She could possibly be the biggest hearted girl there is. No matter how many times people fuck Her Over she’s always there for them. In her mind she is just fine but she knows deep down she isn’t . It’s nothing but smiles with her but if you look into her eyes when she’s deep in thoughts you’ll see her pain. One mistake you can make with her is losing her. If you tell her business to the world she would be pissed and it’d be hard getting back on her good side. She can be devilish when she wants so try not to cross her. She’s very unique in her own way. She’s hard to trust people so just give her some time and when she warms up you’ll love it.

From HIMYM: the name the freaking person behind the counter at probably a Starbucks shop will write on your coffee cup, but it's all wrong because they are deaf and it's not actually your name. Whenever you don't care about someone because they are completely irrelevant, you can also call them Swarley.

From HP: Another variation is Wheatherby.
PersonX: "Bye, Swarley."
Wheatherby *who tried to talk to a girl he likes but failed, turns around to leave with a pathetically sad face*: "It's Barney..."
