wait, are we accepting french words that are in common usage? because that really open the floodgates… savoir-faire…. tete-a-tete… je-ne-sais-quoi…
I think "cul-de-sac" is probably the most unnecessarily fancy term for something ordinary.

Or these guys.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CunninLynguists Be sure to check out their mixtapes, Sloppy Seconds Vol 1 and Sloppy Seconds Vol 2 (cross referencing the cassette thread.)
I'm so embarrassed. Going from being school sixth grade spelling bee champ to not being able to spell cunnilingus. Where have my skills gone?

How do you guys feel about the word "plethora?"
Last night our daughter claimed that my wife uses it all the time, but my wife responded that "No I don't, I hate that word."
During the conversation I was thinking that it's a fun word, but I didn't want to chime in and invite an insult.

damn, how could I forget schadenfreude…by far desert island word selection
I do love Ciao too, I remember buying the Cult's Ciao Edie single and teen-hatch thinking it was pronounced Kia-oh
While the Germans have some good words, the Jews with Yiddish take all the awards
Chutzpah
Kvetch
Meshuggeneh
Putz
Schlep
Schmooze
Schmuck
and my favorite and ALWAYS have to look up how it's spelt
Tchotchke

Tchotchke is a great one and was thinking about this one earlier because of the band with the same name
