palooka

Taken from the old Joe Palooka comic strip: a big boxer hero that helped fight the bad guys.

The word palooka has now become somewhat of a negative term usually preceded by the word "big".

Large man, clumsy man, oaf, fighter, bully, brawler.

Somewhat of a slang term.

Get away from me ya big palooka.

Stop acting like a big palooka.

Go outside if ya wanna fight ya big palooka!

Who do ya think ya are: Palooka Joe?

Palookaville

The middle of nowhere, back of beyond. A place where a no-name nobody (e.g a journeyman golf pro)lives.

As soon as Jerry Kelly has worked that flukey streak out of his system, he'll be going back to Palookaville where he belongs.

Palookas

Refers to an incompetent opponent in a sporting arena (usually boxing). Can also be used to refer to minnow cricket teams and other clumsy or useless beings.

"Bangladesh and Zimbabwe would battle to beat my local ski-boat club on a bad day. To hear players and coaches stating how well they played against these palookas is really pathetic."
