As a computer geek, I was a bit disappointed not to see "glitch" in this list, but with a plethora of Yiddish words to choose from, and only room for five, we can't all have everything we want.
I read a book called The Lost Traveller by Steve Wilson, which dealt with a post-apocalyptic society in which the descendants of a the Hell's Angels motorcycle gang acted as paramilitary forces for one of the communities that had formed after the "Blam." Over the years, they developed their own pantheon of gods and spirits, on of whom was Glitch, the godlet of hangups, goofs, and, well, glitches.
