Re: OT- What do you think the following expression means
Got to agree with Puke. In engineering terms it means that you've destroyed something. Sometimes deliberate, sometimes by accident. Thus "Smoke Testing" is where you run something to destruction, it catches fire etc.

We used it when playing with miniatures. We referred to tanks we had blown up as "Smoked". Usualy identified by a small piece of cotton placed on.

Re: OT- What do you think the following expression means
Where I come from four meanings.
To beat someone in a race
To beat someone in a competition
To kill someone
To blow smoke in someones face. (An insult)

Re: OT- What do you think the following expression means
How I have heard the expression used, "Smoked Him" means "punched him", especially in the face.
So if you go up to a guy and strike him in the nose with your fist, you've smoked him.
