23. Scheppervescent
There was a great radio skit done by Radio Free Vestibule (I think) of some guy walking up to a bus stop and getting into a conversation with a guy already there who was into saying weird words.

I notice that you're not wearing your... GALOSHES.
Uh, no. No, I'm not. It's sunny out today.
I'm wearing my... GALOSHES!
Uh-huh.
Galoshes. Hey, did you read the thing about the... ESKIMOS in the paper?
No.
Well, the article was talking about how the ESKIMOS will eat the fat from the whales. Do you know what they call that?
Uh, no.
BLUBBER! The ESKIMOS eat the BLUBBER from the whales. And they get them from different kinds of whales too like BELUGA whales. They don't wear GALOSHES.
Wh-who? The whales?
NO! The ESKIMOS! They wear MUKLUKS!
Oh.
MUKLUKS! Say it! MUKLUKS!
Mukluks!
Pretty good, eh?

Eventually more people arrive at the bus stop, and they all get into it, and it becomes an accapella rap of strange words.

25. egregious
Has just the right number of consonants and vowels and they're all in the right places.

Plus it's a very appropriate word for when one lives in Bushworld.
