I-Me-My List

[Henry M]

Blazes! The words in your list aren't IMHO great words. They're just 
arcane or magniloquent. 
Pizzle! Now there's a word. 
A few others that I find interesting or attractive in meaning, 
nuance, or sound:

Evening
Pillow
Nuance
Scrum
Listerine
Ameliorate
Triste
Tryst
Cupidity
Merge
