I don't have any specific words or anything, but I do have some general tips that might be useful.
You can exclude words from search results by placing a - at the beginning of the word you don't want. For example if you want real hedgehogs and not Sonic the Hedgehog:
Another tip is you can put quotation marks around a phrase to search for content with that exact set of words. This can be useful when searching for something like a band with a name that just isn't search friendly.
There's a great browser add-on called uBlacklist that can block specific sites from from search results. One particularly useful feature is subscriptions, which allows users to share public lists that update automatically.
