(p.s. what does s.o.a.b. stand for?)

He incorrectly used s.o.a.b for s.o.b. which is an abbreviation for
Son of a bi**h, written sometimes as "sonofabi**h" and "sunnuvabi**h." The term has mutated here in Texas to where some folks pronounce it as "sumbi**h"
The literal inference is that the subject's mother was a dog, or generally of low worth as a human, though that has lost currencly. It is now a general perjorative term.
Usage is as a subsitution for a person:
"Why you s.o.b. you stole my SOJ"
It is sometimes used in an exclamatory fashion, to show surprise or amazement:
"Well I'll be a green skinned s.o.b!"
It can be used to connotate general harshness of spirit:
"I can be a real nice guy, or I can be a real s.o.b."
Glad to be of help. :D
