strong excitement or feeling about something not typically exemplified by someone that is considered "ghetto". often verbalized using vulgar slang in a positive fashion towards something to which it would normally not be directed.
At the National Zoo one day, I heard someone behind me shout, "Yo! It's a mo'fuckin' giraffe!". He certainly had his share of ghetto-enthusiasm about that animal.

An outward expression of interest and excitement while truly feeling indifferent or annoyed on the inside. Typically exhibited in the workplace.
False enthusiasm is when you say to the boss: "Another new tracking sheet for us to use? This is a great tool to help us be more productive! I can't wait to start using it!"
While Thinking: "If I have to fill out one more freaking tracking sheet, I'm going to go insane."

A very specific period of time that is entirely dependant on motivation, willingness and the possibility of reward.
Terry was on a promise as it had been a while since he’d played hide the sausage with Beryl. He took this fleeting opportunity to get the garden fence painted within this window of enthusiasm.

A male phenomenon. The 'Window of Enthusiasm' is a period of allotted time within which one can be bothered. Usually proceeding a reward or promise from one's partner or lover; eg. sex or OK'd to view a sporting event.
Jed was more than happy to clear the guttering on this occasion. Shirley had promised him full sex that evening - should he complete this one task. Jed is well within the 'Window of Enthusiasm', and will be getting his end-away tonight.

Person 1: "Haha, fat people are so disgusting!"
Person 2: "But your fat."
Person 1: "Yeah but it gives me Self-Enthusiasm."
Person 2: "That's sad..."
Person 1: (Silence)

Enthusiasm about one's overalls.
This can be taken in a sexual or non-sexual way, depending on the context.
Since overalls are the least sexy thing a man can wear, this probably applies to the former; however, if the person is of a female or non-binary gender, they are a safe alternative to pants that can still be viable during pursuits of a sexual partner.

Did you see Jack!? Ugh, I've lost all overall enthusiasm for that hoe.
These overalls have been very itchy, I think I'm losing my overall enthusiasm for them
