Gilley
humour
(Usenet) The unit of analogical bogosity. According to its originator, the standard for one gilley was “the act of bogotoficiously comparing the shutting down of 1000 machines for a day with the killing of one person”. The milligilley has been found to suffice for most normal conversational exchanges.
