I remember my friend tried to use it and used it out of context. Something along the lines of: "that was a Smorgasbord"....apparently it sounded like it should mean "huge" how...i dont know!! hahah!!

Yep, this word is originally Swedish. I don't think this thing (Smörgåsbord: it's like a buffé with warm and cold dishes on a big table, and you go around it and take the food that you want on your own plate), I don't think an english word exist for this thing, so they took the Swedish word. ;) Smörgåsbord became "smorgasbord", they don't have the dots. ;D "Smörgås" = sandwich "Bord" = table
