My favourite is Munter...  A word my daughter in law used.  It means someone or something really ugly..

[Highlander]

At a black tie dinner I attended, the guest speaker said that he did lots and lots of such dinners but that he had rarely seen so many beautiful woman, so beautifully turn out and invited all us men to give them a round of applause which of course we duly did.

It was only after the appluase had stopped that he said "Mind you there are some right mingers amongst you"

Cue hoots of laughter from the men followed by the speaker announcing, almost triumphantly

"And you know who you are"

Cue fits of laughter all round the room

NOTE: minger = munter
