What is SWMBO?

[BradleyBrew]

What is this... why does everyone refer to it?

 

[Homercidal]

It simply means:

Sudden Worrisome Manic Brewing Obsession

 

[SGTSparty]

It simply means:

Sudden Worrisome Manic Brewing Obsession

LOL

@BradleyBrew it means She Who Must Be Obeyed aka the wife. You'll also see HWBMO from our non-hetero-male brewers but its less common.

 

[TorMag]

SHE..... Originally from H.R Haggard book.

 

[JonM]

SWMBO stands for STFU, WTF, MYOB, BYOB, OMG.

 

[BeardedBrews]

SHE..... Originally from H.R Haggard book.

Really?

The first I remember hearing it was Rumpole (John Mortimer) but I suppose he probably got it from somewhere.

 

[Homercidal]

You guys are no fun at all. I yearn for the good old days when noobs were strung along for many pages before the answer was finally revealed.

I guess this particular rite of passage is over with.

They have entered the realm of the cruel and beautiful Ayesha, known to those who worship her as “She-who-must-be-obeyed.” For two thousand years, the white queen has been waiting—for what, Vincey and Holly are about to find out.

Too bad the real answer has already been given, it was the first time I could invent some answers:

Simple Whipping Method Brewing Oddity
Sadistic White Mad Beer Ogre
Short Wailing Mediocre Beatin' Orc
(endless possibilities)

I told SWMBO it was: She Who Merits the Best Orgasms. Not sure she believe me.

 

[Redlantern]

UH...........................

it is a vulgar reference to the woman of the house who takes care of us, accepts us despite our shortcomings and loves us (even publicly) when we don't derserve it - which is often

(she might be reading this...)

Or HWMO from some of the female brewers around here.

I mean- look at how I dress <-- in my avatar. He'd better obey me!

Exactly. I don't have the kickass whip, but he'd darn well better obey!

I didn't understand it at first, but like anything, a quick plug into google explained it quickly

99.99% of questions have been asked before... and most answers can be found through sifting through Google. When it's beer related, HBT will show various threads to choose from.

So, I'm with @Homercidal for spoiling the fun on Page 1 already. Mine is set at 40 posts per page, a pretty high standard on what "Page 1" entails.

 

[MapleGroveAleworks]

In my household it's SWMOM.

 

[Amadeo38]

This is like when my grandmother types her question into a Facebook status instead of the Google bar, except you posted a thread instead of Googling!

Wow, so if 100,000 questions have been asked on HBT there has only been 10 unique questions?

How did I not know you could change the posts per page?!?! Game Changer!

 

[ThatVideoKid]

Yeah. And it upsets me greatly when people post a thread and reference a page number and not a post number. Floccing not everyone's page numbers are the same

The group-think on this website regarding this topic is hilarious.

Just wondering how you have been a member since 2010 and have over 1700 posts and don't have a clue what SWMBO means?

 

[starsealsseo]

SWMBO, pronounced 'swimbo', is an acronym of 'She Who Must Be Obeyed', a tongue-in-cheek reference to a female partner.

 

[enokidaki]

I take it the guys on this forum are often in a lot of trouble for our brewing obsession. God knows I am.

Too afraid to ask......

 

[krackin]

It started as a Yuppie term years back , then the hipsters thought it was cool, so on to mils and whomever. Myself, being a gray beard backwoods, stump jumpin' biker, I don't much care what all you wimps for the last 4 decades think. Fork y'all. 'Be Obeyed' my ass. 'Boot in ass' would be a good phrase for most of you SWMBO laddies.

SWMBO is the one who's posting!

Yes. And they are all a variation of two: "Did I ruin my beer?" and "Will this work?"
