Don't forget the "non-words" that people invent on the spot, especially during interviews.
 
  Affectuate   -Cause a change
  Mazing   -A contracted "amazing", so one can say "it's mazing".
  Prolly   -Shortened "probably"
  Rebecoming   -Sports personality talk.  A second coming?  I thought only one guy was permitted this!
  Di'ent, or did'dent or din'nent or did'nent.  -"Didn't" never had quit as many vowels or dents.
  Recoglection-  Sports coach responding to a query.
  Functionable-   Fully, I guess.
  Eyeskulls-   Frozen water that hangs from a house.
  Assumulated-   Response on a tv coutroom show.
  Impactful-   What the weather is to a weatherman.
 
   Some crap like this has actually ended up in the dictionary!

Then there's "I'm like...", especially when it comes from one of those girls who talks from the back of her throat. Sometimes it's followed by a "you know?".

I would also like to add people? who always you know? kind of like? talk in you know, like? questions?

Throw them also onto the pyre.
