Besides the universally hated "Small World", the one I have the greatest hatred for is the theme from "A Chorus Line". I always do my best to morph this into "Mame", which is less offensive...

But German has some much better words:

Drachenfutter: Peace offerings for wives from guilty husbands. Lit. "Dragon fodder"
Fisselig: Flustered to the point of incompetence - a temporary state of inexactitude and sloppiness that is elicited by another person's nagging.
Korinthenkacker: a person overly concerned with trivial details. Lit. "Currant crapper"
Torschlusspanik: the fear of diminishing opportunities as one ages. This word is most frequently applied to women who race the ‘biological clock’ to wed and bear children. Lit. "Gate Closing Panic"
Gardinenpredigt: (Thanks to Marmoe for the correction) A verbal diatribe along the lines of "Why can't you get off your lazy butt and get a job, oh my blessed mother was right, I could have married that fine doctor next door but no, ...". Lit. "Curtain Sermon"

I love German...
