I love this word and the concept.

It's a good one. I used it last night when one of the people I was with got tripped out by a jeep that was identical to his. I told him it must be his jeep's doppelganger. There are clones of about half the people i know wandering about this city, so the word ends up being pretty useful.

Masticate

Flabbergasted.

I only say that because I used it in a Scabble game the other day, and it struck me that it's possibly the most awkward looking combination of letters in the english language. I realize there aren't many situations where it would be appropriate, but try to create a few just so you can test it out. I still to this day have never used it verbally, and my life is worse for it.

 

Also: doppelganger.

what about sixths. that's probably the most awkward combination of consonant sounds in english (4 in a row!).

That one's up there too, horrible word to have to pronounce.

A couple other words to use:

Curmudgeon and Haberdashery.

Curmudgeon... I love that word!
