I don't have any words I enjoy using for the word itself, but there are some words I use all the time in my everyday speaking because I love using them: I do also love using the word "queer" to mean odd. I'm not quite sure why.

"Crux". It just sounds so cool. "Exigencies" Because I used it in a sentence once without thinking about it and made all of my non-English major, non-literary friends stare at me. I totally agree on these. Good words, good words.

"Facetious." Also, "yonder." Also also, "thither." (As in "hither and thither" or "thither and yon.")

"Mellifluous" because it's pretty! "Bizarre" because I love the spelling. "Splenetic" because I use it to describe all of my favourite people.

For some reasons I've always loved ridiculous... It's been my "favorite" for the longest time, though I remember writing a whole diary entry about refrigerator in uhm, third grade? (English isn't my native language)
Lately I'm loving words that end on -phany (epiphany!) or are kind of rare words? I love the lists that keep showing up on tumblr (petrichor <3) :]

Sprawl. I love the long "aw" sound.

Sprawl. I love the long "aw" sound. The sound of that so accurately portrays what the word describes. I love it.
