"Meander." It's my favorite verb to throw into everyday speech, and I do so quite often...just for giggles.
My cousin introduced me to a great word, but I don't recall how it's spelt. I believe it is agida or agita, and it apparently refers to stomach pain. Curious.

Inconceivable,
In real life I keep using that word, though I don't quite know what it means...

You don't know what that means and yet you use it? How inconceivable!

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Anyway for me it is
procrastination.

Grandiloquent
As in:
If I so choose, I can easily lapse into grandiloquent and verbose speech that will confound the simple mind. This ostentatious sesquipedalian loquaciousness provides great pleasure to my ego, yet I avoid its use for the sake of common decency.

I have a few other words that I use very often. bloody (it's not a swear over here...), D'arvit (if you've read the Artemis Fowl books, you know this word.) and Frak (Battle Star Galactica!) I use all of them when I'm frustrated.

I've used
Frick ever since I heard it on Scrubs.
And bajingo, sometimes, but I only ever use that consciously.

I'm a simple man at heart, which shows in the fact that my favourite word is the classical F-word.
