What does SWMBO stand for?

[hebdena]

Being new to the forum I can work out what SWMBOs are but don't know what the abbreviation stands for.
I once belonged to and Landrover forum and SWMBOs were refered to as 'sandbags', i.e. ballast to add weight to a sticky situation!

SWMBO = She Who Must Be Obeyed
DILLIGAF = Do I Look Like I Give A F***
IMHO = In My Humble Opinion

I thought it was going to be more disrespectful than that!
I do like DILLIGAF though.

LOL creates confusion

it really not 'Laughing out loud' but 'Lots of love.'

The real laughter one is 'ROTDLMAO' or any variation that suits you.

Re:ROTDLMAO

Would that be "Rolled Off The Dunnie Laughing My Arse Off"?

Does anyone know the origin of SWMBO? I got it from Mortimer's Rumpole, but was it around before that?
pmsl is another good one

Okay, so what does "PMSL" represent. I can only guess at:
"Ph*ck me, Santa Lives",
"Please Mate, Stella - Large" or perhaps
"Pre-Masturbation Sexual Lust"

SWMBO - from the H Rider Haggard novel 'She', also known as Ayesha, she-who-must-be-obeyed. She was a seriously scary lady who lived for 2000 years, just the stuff for schoolboy reading.

Sample dialogue: "We enter the presence of She, and, if thou art not humble, of a surety she will blast thee where thou standest."

I my experience SWMBO stands for very little. She expects me to be on best behaviour all the time!

pmsl - pissing myself laughing (yes I know that's pml, but I didn't make it up)
I'll have to check out 'She'. Your description reminds me of an old friend that refers to his ex-wife as 'the Cerberus'

Cerberus was a fifty headed beast of Greek mythology. But strangely enough was male, not female.

Cerebus

I thought Cerebus was the hound that guarded the gates to Hell..........

Re: Cerebus

Yes he was.

Originally he was depicted as having 50 heads but later pictures showed just 3 (easier to draw I guess /forums/images/icons/smile.gif) and a serpent tail/body.

...sounds nice!

In the film she was played by Ursular Andress - I suppose you could call that scary/forums/images/icons/wink.gif
