I know a few of them. The manager of our local Internet cafe likes the word "discombobulated", I've often heard him say it. He also says "lollygag" occasionally. "Gobbledygook" is still quite commonly used around here, and so is "jiggery-pokery". I've known the words "agog", "hullabaloo", "kerfuffle", "malarkey", "quire" and "skedaddle" since I was in school. I know one woman who calls armpits "oxters" and she's local (not Scottish or Irish).
