The way far too many people spell "hilarious." It is definitely one of the most popular misspelled words in the english laguage. "Halarious" is how most people pronounce "Hilarious" in every day speech. This is the root of the word.

Nanaimo (na 'nai mo),
is the second largest city on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. It has been dubbed the "Bathtub Racing Capital of the World" and "Harbour City". Nanaimo is also sometimes referred to as the "Hub City" because of its central location on Vancouver Island, and being the main ferry connector between Vancouver and Vancouver Island.
Nanaimo is about 55 km west of Vancouver, separated by the Strait of Georgia, but directly linked to Vancouver via BC Ferries. By virtue of its proximity to Vancouver, Nanaimo is the gateway to many other destinations both on the island — Tofino, Campbell River, Comox Valley, Port Alberni, Rathtrevor Provincial Park — and off its coast — Newcastle Island, Gabriola Island, Valdes Island, and many other of the Gulf Islands.
Nanaimo began as a trading post in the early 1800s; in 1849 the Snuneymuxw chief Ki-et-sa-kun ("Coal Tyee") informed the Hudson's Bay Company of the presence of coal in the area, and in 1853 the company built a fort known as the Nanaimo Bastion (still preserved). Subsequently the town was chiefly known for the export of coal. The 1887 Nanaimo Mine Explosion killed 148 miners and was the largest man-made explosion until the Halifax Explosion. In the 1940s, lumber supplanted coal as the main business, although Minetown Days are still celebrated in the neighbouring community of Lantzville.
Malaspina University-College's beautiful and scenic main campus is located in Nanaimo, which brings many international students to the city. The school is also renowned for its music programs.
Notable Persons from Nanaimo:
Cameron Bright, Child actor
Kim Cattrall, Actress
Justin Chatwin, Actor
Glen Clark, Politician
Diana Krall, Jazz pianist and singer

One of the best characters from the Conan O'Brien show (12:30am weekdays on NBC). His skit is named "Pierre Bernard's Recliner of Rage." He's a very soft-spoken fellow. Conan usually starts the skit out by saying "Are you comfortable, Pierre?" and Pierre responds with "I'm comfortable and furious Conan." It's very humorous coming from such a soft-spoken little guy. After Conan introduces him, he proceeds to complain about 'important' contemporary issues, well, important to him. They're usually very bizarre, random, and trivial, making it all the more hilarious.
Brandon: "Did you see Pierre Bernard on Conan last night, hahaha, that guy is hilarious."
Cody: "Oh, I saw it, it was brilliant, I almost crapped in my pajama pants."

A reoccurring red and blotchy rash surrounding the armpit. The cause and the cure for this symptom are both unknown. Some experts believe that it is due to continual usage of a certain arm deodorant and/or antiperspirant in which the person is somewhat allergic. A sufferer of "shitpit" usually decides not to switch the infecting product just for the heck of it, rather than logically trying a different product. It is a very complex disease affecting the person both mentally (insanity) and physically (red pits).
Darrell: "Dude, let's go to the Aqua-centre for a swim."
Bjorn: "Nah, I don't really want to."
Darrell: "Why the hell not?"
Bjorn: "Uhhh..... my shitpit is acting up again, it'll be embarrassing."
