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."

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?"

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."

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."
