I found these in my dictionary:
la rigolade = fun (related to the verb rigoler)
ringard(e) = old fashioned (in a pejorative/derogatory sense)
bourre = either "bouree de" meaning crammed full of; or plastered or pickled (the familiar of the verb "ivre" meaning drunk)
connerie = some stupid or foolish thing to say or do
I've heard connerie used in a sentance such as "faire de la connerie" or "arretez de faire la connerie" in a manner that implies anger rather than light-hearted foolishness.
Other than what I've mentioned above, I don't know what a more formal version of these words might be.
I hope this helps!
