Boatload
A mispronunciation of buttload so that it can be said on TV.
A term used in the personal injury field of law to signify an accident where a car full of African Americans fake whiplash claims.
My car just barely tapped that boatload of coal and they all got out, looked and saw there was no damage, and as soon as they heard a siren, they all flopped on the ground grabbing their necks

Boatloads Of Ass
(N.) Something that is so much beyond sucking, it can only be described as this term. (much like a lightyear is so long, it can only be described by a unit of time)
