"Sodomy"

It instantly takes the tension from any situation.

Ignoramus is a great one. It's just a fancy way of telling somebody they're an idiot, but I love it. Not to be over-used though, it looses it's charm.

**** is another one. Some people get really offended by it so it's not always wise to use, but the fact that it's still a pretty "extreme" curse word makes it all the more fun to use, sparingly :D

I also say brah to, in an ironic way. It's just fun because I'm english, and and englishman saying brah never sounds right :D

"Cad". I use it regularly.

Squamous, though I never have call to use it, is a wonderful sounding word.

Wild ass - Ever since I heard David Attenborough say it in Planet Earth it's become priceless.

Schadenfreude.

It's a German word meaning "Taking pleasure in someone else's misfortune."

PHANTASMAGORIA!

It doesn't even need any context.
I just love the Let's Play where Spoony's all like "So...Ummm...PHANTASMAGORIA!....Not that scary, is it?"

OT: Drengstauli. It's essentially the Icelandic way of saying "Damned child".

I am usually considered to be a bit of an "old soul" in partial to the fact that I seem to use words that others find odd. My examples are words like "shall" or "nor" that are very common in my vocabulary.

I also very much enjoy the term "downtrodden." It usually gets just the right emphasis of what I am trying to say across.

Somnambulist. A much better word for sleep walker.

Cur, cad, ignoramus, blackguard... A lot of somewhat antiquated insults are fun to use.

I just quite like words. I enjoy using big words so that I sound clever utilising colossal idioms so as to facilitate the appearance of intelligence. The aforementioned activity amuses me greatly.

Lexiconography Is a great word, but you very rarely get a chance to use it without sounding like an arrogant prick.

Defenestrate is another good one, but I just like the fact that we have a word dedicated to throwing things out of a window.
