A thousand meters. A metric measurment used for mid to long distances. Approximately 5/8 or .625 of a mile.
A word which is - more often than not - BUTCHERED by alledgedly educated media speakers and now the general population.
The correct pronunciation is based on the FACT that the first part of the word is 'kilo' meaning 1000 and uttered as 'keelo.' The second part is 'meter', uttered 'meeter.' Thus the true pronunciation of this 'whopper' - give me a break - is 'keelomeeter' with the 'o' pronounced as it is generally uttered in the alphabet as opposed to the long 'awww' sound. The explanation for this is best offered through understanding prefixes and suffixes as well as investigating how other related metric measurements are uttered. 'Centimeter' for example is NOT uttered 'cent-IM-itter' just as 'millimeter' is NOT uttered 'mill-IM-itter.' These two words are usually NOT BUTCHERED and are found said properly as 'sEnta-mEEter' or 'sEnti-meeter' - with the 'i' pronounced as in the word 'it.' And 'milli-meeter' - 'i' pronounced as in the word 'it.' Or 'milleemeeter.'

A typical example of the BUTCHERING of the word 'kilometer':
Trucker Bob: "I drove 'bout 500 'killawwwmitters' til I stuck it in the sleeper. So tired, forgot I never had a sleeper and woke up in the godamned reefer...sheeet!
Fed-up etymologist: "Excuse me dude, but it is pronounced 'keelomeeter' *long 'o' as in 'toe'* could you please get it right and pass it on?"
Trucker Bob: *walking over to etymologist and dumping half eaten bacon and eggs on his head* "I don't take kindly to bein' corrected by some teacher-boy home-ohhh-secksull!"
Fed-up etymologist: *who also happens to be a runner-up in an ultimate fighting light-heavyweight t.v. championship, Ninjas the trucker in the throat and throws him INTO the floor while stating* "Perhaps today is a good day to learn shit-for-brains." *drags him outside and stuffs him into his reefer*.

Get the kilometer mug.Beautiful cottage country in south-central Ontario, Canada. Made 'famous' by such Hollywood stars as Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn and Tom Hanks and others.
Once a place of peace and quiet, respectfully tainted with the noise of summer-fun including boating, water skiing, tubing, and just about any other outdoor activity - other than HUNTING!
The original cottages were a place to escape to from the rat-race of the stinky city - mainly the city of Toronto.
Once this land was 'discovered' by certain high-profile people, rich pricks decided it was 'trendy' and 'necessary' to purchase land or a cottage there so as to look upwardly-mobile. This has degraded Muskoka by making it unrealistically expensive for the average layman to purchase; and unmanagable for those who first set their cottage roots there, due to higher taxes and anal newcomers.
Like the white-man raped the Native Americans' lands, so has the yuppie/rich prick raped Muskoka.

New Muskokan cottager:
Franchini: "Are we taking the Bentley and the Bichon to Muskoka this weekend Elsha?"
Elsha: "Well we may need the Bentley because Arthur is flying in from Eton. I think we should have Ramon watch the Bichon as you know Arthur just won't have anything to do with her shedding!"
Franchini: "Fine..fine..fine..Let Ramon watch the bitch and we shall enjoy Cognac with Arthur in Muskoka...I do hope the central air is on when we arrive and that the plumbers have installed the three 'bidets' in the main washrooms."
TRUE Muskokan cottager in the 70s:
Merv: "Did we get the coolers and sleeping bags all packed kids?"
Kids: "Yes daddy, and mommy made us some lunches 'cause we're hungry now and can't wait till we stop for our mid-trip snack. I hope the bunny's are there at the stop. Can we get our allowance now so we can buy some blackballs and bottlecaps daddy?"
Merv: "If you are good. Remember, its a long drive but at least we have this wagon now. Too bad we can't afford a plane to fly up and avoid the traffic." - laughing
Kids: "Yea, but at least we have a boat so we can ski and fish and stuff."
Merv: "That's true kids, good attitude."

Get the Muskoka mug.A movie (actually titled "Dead Ringers") directed by David Cronenberg telling the story of identical twin gynecologists - Elliot and Beverly, played by the ever boring Jeremy Irons - One is shy and normal per se, the other, a total whack job. They share the same practice, the same apartment, the same women. When a new patient, glamorous actress Claire Niveau - played by the almost do-able Genevieve Bujold - challenges their eerie bond, they descend into a whirlpool of sexual confusion, drugs, and madness including the creation of "Alien-like" gynecological tools.
"I watched "Dead Ringers" and left the theatre feeling like a psychopath for having not left earlier."

Get the dead ringer mug.THE new - to CANADA - Mercedes misnomered smart car. Word invented by psiscott once he saw this car with his little son. Can be used to describe any small useless or gaudy car such as many rice rockets
Little Buddy: "Daddy, huh..huh..what is THAT!?"
Daddy: "OHhhh, that's one of those stupid new fart rockets! Instead of offering available alternative fuels, we get offered that useless undersized winter-worthless four-wheeled over priced, MODERATELY fuel efficient, bicycle!"

Get the fart rocket mug.An exceedingly vulgar term to be used ONLY in the most upsetting of situations to reference a woman's cunt or vagina such as where a man has had sexual intercourse with a woman only to end up with 5 different diseases and a testicular blood clot. This individual - realizing that he would have been better off fucking a band-saw - gets so upset that any reference to her genitalia is wrought with expletives and this term.
Scott: "Hey guy, you don't look so good."
Max: "No shit Trebek! I ding that chick Bevvy last week and now I am on 8 different penicillins and need my scrote drained every 24 fucking hours. She had the most diseased bitch hole I've ever stuck!!!"
Scott: "Bummer."

Get the bitch hole mug.An aggressive asshole driver who decides that he is so much more important than everyone else in a traffic jam that he ducks out of traffic into the clear merging lane to overtake a few dozen cars, only to fuck up the traffic even more as he tries to get back in to the jammed traffic lane.
worst driver cunt asshole redneck punk shithead rice rocket street racer racer nitro
worst driver cunt asshole redneck punk shithead rice rocket street racer racer nitro
Jean is driving on a busy thoroughfare in LA when Click the aggressive driver jumps out of the curb lane - as a typical merge hopper does - onto the merge to pass 50 cars. Jean sees him coming in her rear view mirror, pulls out her 45 and blows the tires out of Click's car causing him to ditch. Click is okay, VERY LATE for work now, and no longer a threat to traffic for this particular day.

Get the merge hopper mug.A made up word used by total dwankers who think that they are ordering a stylish beverage but have infact totally fucked-up the pronunciation. See espresso.
Preppie dwanker: "I'll have an expresso and my partner will have an expresso frappe latte strawberry with light cream and a twist of lime...cane sugar on the side."
Server: "What the fuck is an 'expresso?' And would you and your boyfriend like to serve your own sugar and cream over there by the pile of wood...this is an 'extreme getaway vacation' fruitloop; not Starbucks!"
