argillaceous
A word that you only see on the "most searched" list of sites as dictionary.com. It's interesting that the other words on such list are: peripheral, intervention, resource, christian, blow, walk. Argillaceous has something to do with minerals or clay or something.
Bob: "I'm interested in coprolites and argillaceous minerals."
Steve: "Are you ready to inspect each sphincter of a dinosaur?"

propinquity
Use this word when you want to seem smart – or stupid. It's your choice, really. (It's all just a big game of fortuna, as it's the other people that form their opinion on you and you cannot really affect that process.) It's the type of word you only see on the "most searched" list of dictionary.com and on Yahoo!'s headlines (the latter-mentioned explains the first-mentioned).
People who have to look up this word are either too smart or "too dumb" and if this being the case, they are also very likely to read Yahoo! News. Why Yahoo! in the first place uses words that are understood only by 0.01‰ (1 out of 100 000) of the population, remains yet unclear. But when you are seen to use this word, people will know (if they're intelligent enough) that you got it from nowhere else than Yahoo! News...

Woody: "The propinquity of these – pardon my sterile approach on the topic – two given objects is inversely proportional to..
Bob: "Why don't you just say "approximity" or "distance" or something?"
Woody: "W-what? I don't.."
Bob: "Yes, you do. Don't play stupid."
Gary: "Yeah, man. Don't use words that are understood only by 3500 Americans – that's what Yahoo! News does."

the great eight
The "great eight" filler words whose meaning the people using them don't even understand, but solely spam them on every YouTube video they can get their hands onto, because "that is what you are supposed to do!" These people probably (I don't want to know) use this YouTube/Reddit/add-your-site-of-choice-here meme language in real-life situations too: at school (if they attend to one (hey, everything is possible)), in a line at a supermarket, at the mall etc. It must be spoken loudly, so people around can hear it the same way everyone sees their comments on-line.
The Great Eight filler words are: honest(ly), literally, appreciate, underrated, legit (short for legitimate), ignore, actually and though (short for although). Notice that "legit" is NEVER written as "legitimate" and its meaning is NOT "legitimate" but "legitimately" in this age of newspeak and memetalk. "Though" is never written as "although" and it has NO meaning whatsoever; it's a 100% bona-fide filler word. Summa summarum: it wouldn't make a difference if you wrote "onionballz!" instead of "legit" or "though", as anyone with a functioning set of brains just omits; passes these empty words with no meaning or value.

Melvin: "Nice to see a new video from The Rolling Stones though. Let's be honest and stop ignoring the fact that they are legit the most underrated band in the world. SMH."
Sparky: "Facts. The Stones literally is sooo underrated that it hurts, to be honest, actually."
Thor: "*ambiguous smiley* Anyone else here for they actually appreciate the music though?"
Alfred: "Anyone watching in 2021? I wish this pandemic was over..."
Bob: "Gee, guys! Ever heard of The Great Eight?" ¦D"

legit
Short for "legitimate". NOT short for "legitimately" which is a totally different word. The difference is roughly the same as between "good" and "well" – in case you cared. An extremely popular yet badly understood filler word.
Melvin: "Bill Murray must be legit the most underrated comedian ever!"
Sparky: "IKR? He could've been literally one of the greatest, though."

though
Short for "although". One of the "great eight" filler words. Only approximately 0.1‰ (1 out of 10 000) know how to use the word properly.
Bob: "Missy Crotchrot is such an overall perfect woman!"
Melvin: "Yeah, but what about that butt, though."
Melvin: "Yeah, but what about that butt, though."

ain't
Short for "am not" and for nothing else – not even "is not", for "it ain't" would just be "it am not". The only correct use is "I ain't" which is a contraction of "I am not". So, don't say e.g. "you ain't" which would only mean "you am not".
Clinique: "Let 'im go, he didn't do nothing!"
TyRone: "I ain't done nothing! I ain't done no nothing!"
LaKeisha: "You bastards, let us go! I ain't done none!"
Barackeisha: "You let 'em go!! They's ain't have done nothing! They ain't have done none!"
TyRone: "I ain't done nothing! I ain't done no nothing!"
LaKeisha: "You bastards, let us go! I ain't done none!"
Barackeisha: "You let 'em go!! They's ain't have done nothing! They ain't have done none!"
