Eg trying to get into a club while improperly dressed; Bouncer : “ In your ****ing dreams sunshine”

Parturient

With a scornful snicker, he settled himself behind his desk, replaced the empty cigarette holder in his mouth and lapsed into a parturient silence for a few moments. "Now that I think about it," he confessed, as much to himself as to the chaplain, "having the men pray to God probably wasn't such a hot idea anyway. The editors of The Saturday Evening Post might not have cooperated."

Cygnet, which I learned from Ogden Nash.

Whales have calves,
Cats have kittens,
Bears have cubs,
Bats have bittens,
Swans have cygnets,
Seals have puppies,
But guppies just have little guppies.

Not a particular word so much, but somewhat unusual meanings of common words.

For example, "pedestrian", but not in the case of "a person walking on foot", but in the case of "unimaginative".
