I've always been fond of defenestration.

I used it frequently during college, dealing with uppity freshmen.  :)

"ostensibly" is another good one to make people go "huh?"

Benchleyfan:
Serendipity-like the concept, the word is just fun (for me) to say and yet I never really get to use it. 

Names I like:  Walla Walla, WA  and Armand Assante.   :)  Shelley

Zydruna:
Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia 

means fear of long words.

That person had a good sense of humor ;D.

neminem:
A friend of mine just used "gorram" completely naturally, earlier today. It made me happy, a lot.

Incidentally, "frell" is a fun word, too, even though I'd much rather be thought of as a Firefly fanboy than a Farscape one.
