OK.
I think that you should as a matter of urgency incorporate 'Gobsmacked' into
American English. Let this be the SOC's gift to the world.

I can see it in Webster's now:
Gobsmacked (adj) Utterly astonished, speechless, (From northern England -
crossed the Atlantic in 2003 courtesy of a bunch of eejits called the
Second-Class Operator's Club...thanks a bunch lads).
