Dunderhead
Definition: The first person to approach you privately - and say confidential things about the social group you have just joined for the first time - is almost invariably that group's dunderhead who is eager to make interpersonal inroads with someone who doesn't yet realize it.
See also: oddball, black sheep, misfit, weirdo etc.
Exquisite
Definition: extremely beautiful and, typically, delicate
Exception: in the expression "exquisite banter", the use of the word "exquisite" is an example of antonymic ironicism.

Fairly
As in “the old bucket was fairly rusty, as opposed to the wheelbarrow which was very rusty”
Gums
As in: "Ooh er, get your gums around my plumbs said the vicar to the toothless actress as he came in from the orchard carrying a basket."

Fellatio
As in: "The softball questions the ex-president was handed during the FOX News interview brought the word fellatio to mind but I mean figuratively, I don't mean I was literally imagining it. Although, I am now. Aaaaghh. I can't unsee it."
