Actually, yes 

A moment in time where another person says something that sounds like complete bullshit to you, and then you realize it's true after starting to call them out for it.

Usually followed up by a laugh from the other person, knowing you were trying to contradict their truth.

endwarfins

The rush of neurotransmitters and neuropeptides triggered specifically by watching the Seven Dwarfs march home singing "Heigh-Ho" — that particular high of pickaxes, whistling while you work, and communal domestic bliss in a cottage built for men half your height.
I only meant to watch the Heigh-Ho scene for the endwarfins, and then it was two hours later and I'd watched the whole movie.

Endwarfins aren't just a Snow White thing — I get the same hit off the Lollipop Guild in Oz.
