I talk such an incredible amount of nonsense these days that it's becoming hard to tell which bits were stolen from my parents/grandparents and which were stolen from Russell Brand.

I described something as 'piffle' earlier, I guess that counts.

I don't say encyclopedia. I say encyclopaedia. Hilarity ensues.

have even been told that I'm going to hell for telling someone not to look a gift horse in the mouth.

I don't get it. Why would someone say you're going to hell for that?

Sometimes it sucks because I forget what I'm doing in the middle of doing it, so I end up standing around looking like an idiot, holding strange objects.

I do that sometimes, half way up/down the stairs and I forget what I was going to do.

Archaisms are fun! I love finding sesquipadalianisms (obscure words) from the Phrontistery (www.phrontistery.info) and slipping them into everyday conversations, sometimes because they are fun words, other times for the sheer look of terror on their faces.

interesting site, going to use your strategy and see what happens.
On topic, I sometimes use "holler" which I hate, and do my best to avoid.

 

[klakkat]

I say "Idgit" from time to time, and "albeit." I've only seen those words in writing, never heard anyone say them.

I've made every effort to bring back the word "courtesan", so far without success.
