I read that and wondered if it has to do with "smegma".

I expect you're right. Never heard of it 'til now. Must be an
Americanism.

Only among those who use immature insults as a substitute for
reasoned thoughts. It is not a commonly used expression.

No, thankfully we don't hear it often. The first time I even heard
_of_ the word I was around 30+ years old. Someone was asking me "what
is the most disgusting word in the US language? Actually I've never
heard it used derogatorily, just joking and grossing people out. I
can't say how it was meant up above, hopefully in a joking way.

Look up "Red Dwarf" and smeg. I thought you guys were Brits?

I'm transplanted from Eastern PA to Appalachian Smoky Mountains in
Tennessee. Trust me, they don't speak "British" here! A quick peek and
it looks like a british comedy. Sounds much better than the definition
I pointed to!
