Yes, but before I learned that, I saw a video with someone standing in front of a SMEG refrigerator and was impressed by the great lengths they’d gone to to express their fondness of Red Dwarf.
I was looking this up on DDG to provide you with a satisfactory answer, but then I learned that I didn’t want to do any more searching on the topic.
Mildly gross stuff below. I don’t think it’s too much, but don’t want to overwhelm anyone’s sensibilities since it does involve genitalia. I’m not sure how to do spoilers on my phone but will update my post later after opening this on my desktop.

Fans theorized that “smeg,” a word used as a replacement for cursing in Red Dwarf, was short for “smegma,” a real word related to discharge under the foreskin of uncircumcised men. (The authors of Red Dwarf denied this.) (One of the things I learned in the aforementioned search is that the discharge can exist for both men and women and does not require a lack of circumcision.) The discharge is natural and facilitates intercourse, but can be described as gross due to its “thick, cheese-like” appearance (a quote from my memory that I’m not even going to try to validate because I’m not searching for anything close to a combination of the words I’m using in this summary). I believe the text is also the content of an official card in Cards Against Humanity.
There is a Wikipedia entry on the topic. It has some explicit photos. I won’t link it because I’m still not sure how link previews work in various clients, but it is a very short search away.
edit: I appreciate the (I think?) reference to Rimmer’s affectations.
edit 2: Copied spoiler markdown from another post I made. Hope it works. It’s really not that bad, but I don’t want to upset or surprise anyone.
Ah yes that. I understand your hesitation to go into detail. I believe it was mentioned on an episode of QI that they just made up the word smeg, with no relation to the above or the line of appliances by the same name.
Smeg
I expect this requires no explanation. You lemmings already know.
Heeeeeead
Oh, we accepting abbreviations now to fit one syllable? This is cheating, I’m calling the police
Smeg is actually a well known appliance brand

You lemmings know even more about smeg than I thought!
I know one more thing about it, but the (definitely singular) author of the original Red Dwarf disavowed any association so I shouldn’t mention it.
Now you have to tell us, in accordance with space corps directive 1742.
Under no circumstances can wild badgers be trained in professional juggling without the written authorization of 2 or more flag officers?

This seven-cheese pizza calls for “Richard’s cheese?” Did I get that right?
This is how I abbreviate avocado smash & eggs. Mostly with two g’s, but still.
It is a versatile word
That’s an appliance company here.
MA!
