Literally, "a thousand pardons." A geeky form of apology that is nominally three orders of magnitude better than a simple, "I'm sorry." Kilopology is the most commonly used SI-unitized solicitation of forgiveness; others include "megapology" (offered in matters of sexual infidelity), "gigapology" (offered in matters of accidentally killing a little girl's pet pony), and terapology (offered when destroying worlds). Antonyms: millipology (i.e., not really giving a shit) & picopology (i.e., not even giving a fart).

Unsuccessful pursuit or venture incorporating an over reliance upon state-of-the-market technologies and gadgetry instead of the safer, more reliable, "Keep It Simple, Stupid" (KISS) philosophy. Epic technology fail.
Terry: This Firebird X guitar has so many switches and knobs and settings... I just can't understand how to use all $6,000 of its robotic multiprocessing awesomeness.
Terry's Dad: Son, them boys just got bit by the high tech dumbass. Here, try my '64 Gibson ES-120...

a polite amalgam of the terms "et cetera" and "all that shit." It sounds like Latin and therefore makes you appear smarter than you actually are.

An involuntary, often momentary, cessation of higher mental and/or cognizant functionality typically preceded by hearing a stops-you-dead-in-your-tracks comment (often political) or a knocks-your-socks-off experience (e.g., orgasm). Similar to mind numbing but more extreme with faster onset (i.e., it has nothing to do with the physiological response to lectures on thermodynamics).
Just to screw with my wife’s left-leaning friends and politically-affiliated solicitors, I now answer the home phone with the greeting “Palin-Bachmann 2012 campaign headquarters,” a real mindstun.

Slang term used by emergency services personnel (esp. in the southern U.S.) used to describe a particulary violent vehicular collision, typically with horrendous injuries &/or fatalities.
EMT #1: Last night's root knocker had two pinned in one car and a crispy critter in the other; we had to use the Jaws of Life to pry their drunk asses out. We cut Sir Crispie out later.
EMT#2: I heard. (pause) Where do you want to go for lunch? I suddenly have a hankerin' for Bar-B-Q.
