Once upon a time there was a comedy skit with this theme... it was called "bulbous bouffant" but I don't remember what the guys who did it called themselves... damn funny, though.
Not that unusual, but I like "manky"... but perhaps I just have a thing for British slang (watched a lot of BBC before my tv died).

My favourite word is 'verisimilitude'.

From the Latin veritas, -atis - f + similis, -e n; later verisimilis, -e. Probably also passed through French at some point...

Here are a couple of words that just... taste 'yummy' when you're saying them.. (At least, they do to me. Forgive me, I'm a strange individual.)
Arcane - there's just something about it. Most people at least have an idea of what it means, but how many people use it regularly?
Defenestration - throwing someone or something out of a window. It's such a wonderful word, and it just sounds so painful!!

atrixa Means 'to have the appearance of truth or reality'. Yupyup. And then it was bastardized by the French. Stoopid surrender monkeys.

Raige No Kaze Kazemuki You mentioned defenestration. That is insta-win. Yay! Someone else shares my love of the word?? That makes me very happy! I first came across it in The Tamuli - David Eddings. At least, that's the first time I remember. You've been for me what no other could be... Makes me think of Michael Jackson. ^.^
Will I now grow old and forget all those? Drown all sorrow, goodbye tomorrow.

AH, I got it from my Latin class. Every week, we've got to fill out a sheet with four or five words and include the definition, Latin roots and forms, meanings of said roots, and related words from said roots. Fun stuff.

I feel really stupid mentioning these words, but they are regular words that I think sound funny.
Fork
and
Purple.
Another word that I enjoy is Hippopotomonstrosequippidaliophobia, it is, get this, the fear of long words. Silly in my opinion. How are they ever going to tell anyone what they fear. I am quite in love with the phobia's, some of them just make me giggle, like the fear of something being to the left of you, how do you survive??
