I'm going to have to amend my list and agree with Carl that "Galapagos" is an absolutely awesome word.

Bludgeon. My sister once told me that she thought it was a great word and I had to agree :)

Narf! That's the only single word I can think of right now. At school the trend is using long and meaningless phrases with the word technology at the end it.

Apotheosis has got to be one of the coolest sounding words I've ever heard. It means becoming God or attaining god-like status.

I don't have a particular favourite, but I'm fond of "bollocks". It's just a really satisfying word to say, and you can put a lot of feeling into it.

"Asp" is also a great word. It sounds like what it is. :)
