Brocavore 

The newest urban man-in-demand--the brocavore--is more down with nature. He's all about eating local and organic, making his own beer, and drinking from mason jars.

"A dude involved in the local food movement and restaurant scene. Typically identified by his fixed-gear bicycle, tattoos, facial hair and fondness for craft beer (preferably Sixpoint) in a jar and early Pavement. Commonly seen at Roberta’s, Prime Meats, the Bell House."
- CHRISTINE MUHLKE (New York Time's Magazine).
Hey! Did you check out that brocavore behind the bar? Maybe he's got a good recipe for my heart and my appetite. Thank GOD metrosexuals are out because I need a man's man with a sensitive palette. Pass the homebrew, boy !!!

brocore moshdog 

misplaced jocks, frat boys, or guidos who mosh in hardcore, metal, or punk rock pits and high five after punching little kids and girls in the face. Also partake in chest bumping and are usually far too overdressed for these activities. Spiked hair with large amounts of hair gel or designer hats turned slightly crooked are sure signs you might have found a brocore moshdog in your pit.
Wow that brocore moshdog just punched that little girl in the face!

What has now become an form of music an culture of mostly white males (other races are of course included) whos only purpose is to churn out the exact same style of music and culture that they have seen in magazine ads and at brocore shows. Not defined this way by the people who advocate and participate in it, they are fully convinced they are playing hardcore.

Dress:
-Yes they essentially have a uniform that consists of
Train driver caps/ball caps backwards
Brocore bands shirts, or other "hardcore" bands
mesh shorts , or baggy pants (preferably camo)
Wrist sweat bands(sometimes)
Gauged ears (as is keeping with trendy magazine ads)
Shaved heads/fauxhawks
vans(or other shoes they can pull out of context)
Brocore bands hoodies, (hood up of course)

Music:
-Highly repetitive guitar riffs in either drop-d or drop-c repeated over and over with 1 big meat finger across the fret board
-Break downs as much as possible(I.E. half time of the same repeated over and over again)
-a singer that attempts to sound as masculinely caveman as possible and just paces around the stage looking angry/constepated
-lyrics about how tough you are and how your bros are going to back you up (I.E. help you gang up on someone)
-imitate as closely as you can any other band of the brocore or detuned "hardcore" scene from the 90s and on
-a complete perversion of the origional hardcore punk that accidently birthed it

Culture:
-said to have came from northern california but seemingly easily spread to any city in any town, as brocore is a formula not a musical movement of any kind
-mostly males whose only purpose is to act as "tough" as is possible this includes but is not limited to;
flailing your arms around in a mass crowd of people
not "giving a fuck" about anyone but yourself and bros
flexing your muscles around people
looking as angry as is possible
crossed arms, hood up, blank expression
disregard for whoever you hurt, especialy women
- very closely resembles the pesky skin-head nazi punks of the 80s and 90s (without the racism, but with the supremecy)
would go as far as saying they are modern day skinheads
-anything that is not brocore refered to as for "faggots"
-anyone who disagrees with brocore/brocore people are "fags"
-general homophobia
-also is exactly like the jock mentality very common in highschool that excludes anyone who doesnt fully conform to their viewpoints and actions
side note:
not at all brocore bands claim to support this type of behavior
yet they aren't doing anything about it

Brocore by jessicaxbrox September 10, 2007
It is a style of music, and a style of dressing.
The music is generally made up of 'beatdowns'.
It originated in Northern California, and is associated with hardcore. Also with dinocore.
The style of dressing is close to hardcore: camo shorts, basketball shorts, levis, band shirts, baller caps, vans.
Gauged ears generally go with the look.

Brocore in Southern California refers to something completely different in style, in that case it means like BMX/MX bros. With dickies and high socks. Thing metal melisha.
SharkPunch is such a good joke brocore band.

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?

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.
