I prefer English words making it incorrectly into German. "Getting a handy from your buddy at a public viewing" is totally innocent in German.
My friend in Australia is a doctor studying psychiatry and he kept asking me what certain worlds meant and half the time I had no idea what they were or how to explain them lol.
Very random. Here's a wiki list but I remember there were some others too

"Ouch"
Does "Neuschwanstein" count? As in the castle in bavaria. Because I find it amusing how native english speakers just stumple over the pronounciation. Also "Gesamtkunstwerk" because it seems kinda superflous.
