    Keelhaul - A form of punishment. Even if you don't know what it means, the word just sounds nasty. Next time someone crosses you, get a wild look in your eyes and shout, 'I'll keelhaul ye!' Watch how fast they straighten up their act and show you some respect. :)

    Poop deck - Top deck on a large ship. If you don't have a ship, you can use this phrase to refer to the room over the garage. If you really want to make your seventh-grader giggle, use 'poop deck' and 'bunghole' in the same sentence ("Plug the bunghole before it leaks on the poop deck!").
