In the DVD of the recent animated movie "The Incredibles", one of the
special features is a short, in which the character Syndrome snarls to Mr.
Incredible (in a context I don't exactly remember),
"Not since you put me in the skookum house!"
They must've gotten this phrase from a thesaurus, because the pronunciation
of skookum house he uses rhymes with "book 'em". I've never heard that in
real life.
