My all-time favorite word is Perpendicular. Isn't it just hilarious to say? Perpendicular...
stargazer, triskaidekaphobia is one of my favorite words too! I literally use it way more often than such an obscure word deserves to be used. And as for inconceivable - thank you for the Princess Bride reference, that always makes my day.
Some more words:
Loaf
Peruvian
Lecca-lecca (Do italiano words count? It means lollipop; literally translated, it means something like "lick-lick" )
Mauve

Brilliant topic!
Quantity - a rhythmic, to-the-point word
Quinze - pronounced "Queen-zay", this word is Portuguese for fifteen.
Imperial
Cypress
Corsair - has a very adventurous quality and slides off the tongue wonderfully.
Pronto - so much fun to say!
Caldera - sounds delicate and beautiful.
Indefatigable - old fashioned and full of heroic meaning.
Exfiltrate - opposite of infiltrate. This word is begging to be used in a spy novel!
Abysmal - also very fun to use, usually as an exaggeration: "I had an abysmal day."
And from the lists shared above, I have to agree that Triskaidekaphobia, Unmitigated, and Obsequious are all great words as well.
