It's from Red Dwarf, a British scifi comedy from the late 80s-90s. It's their take on fake future swears.
I figured out what's missing. He needs a shiny H on his forehead.
It's short for smegma, i.e. dick cheese.
It's not, actually. Some people thought it was, but apparently the creators had never heard of smegma before and it was just an unfortunate coincidence.
The creators may claim as much, but...
Alright, alright, people coming out of the woodwork to tell me about smegma, Jesus. You win the dick cheese argument. 'Gratz.
And people say this server doesn't have any value!
No, my friend, smegma is and has been a word and it has a meaning.
They chose it as an obscure and disgusting word to use as an insult.
So if you're uncircumsized, and have ever not washed your dick in a few days, you're intimately familiar with what smegma is.
It is categorically not a made-up "future swear."
