Hmmm,
I'd say my favorite Kanji are:

超 (ちょう) - Super

EX - 伝説の(スーパー)サイヤ人！！

And a lovely Kanji:

友達 (ともだち) - Friend

EX - サスケ 「お前は一体・・・何なんだ・・・？」
ナルト 「友達だ」

I'll add some more to the list later.

朝マック　（あさマック）　= Breakfast at McDonald's

This is the official "nick" invented by McDonald's Japan. You will sound like a Japanese person if you say:

「朝マックしよう！」 = Let's have breakfast at McDonald's!
