Cantankerous - difficult or irritating to deal with (for the sound)
Serendipity - the faculty or phenomenon of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for, or an instance of this (for the meaning)
Also, twelfth and jazz make excellent hangman words.

I like to try and pronounce complicated or long words like serendipity, psychoanalysis, etc. because I'm the Queen of Mispronounciation. I had fun with one project I did on parapsychology--I didn't bother to try and learn how to pronounce the different concepts until the morning of the presentation.
Anyway, I usually end up falling over laughing at myself.

I kinda like made up words that represent the way we actually speak...like kinda.
I am also partial to big words like,phneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcaniconiosis which is a type of lung disease. Or polysylabicsequadecapedelianistic which is a way of describing someone that uses big words.
Most slang is totally way cool, wicked, boss, and groovy...especially as it becomes dated!
