That is one humongous boomer! Explanation: humongous (Urban Dictionary) 1. Enormous, gigantic. a term used for something extremly cool -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-12-02 09:27:57 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Correction: ...humongous box! (Don't know where my mind was--boomers are something else... ;-)) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2008-12-02 10:12:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- In light of clarification on tone involved, you could alter that to: That really/sure is one humongous box. "awesome" in the classical sense could also be used ironically here, to refer to size: That sure is an awesome box. Reference: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=humongous |
