Words you can keep

droitwich 

n.) The uncomfortable phenomenon when two people meet while walking and attempt to pass only to have both persons go in the same direction, thus each continuing to block the path of the other. The occurence is usually brief but unsettling enough to cause grievance and annoyance in one or both parties (or however many are involved).

Also is known as "the get-past-you shuffle", "the pavement tango" and "the thing where you go like 'this'".

The word comes from the book "The Meaning of Liff" by Douglas Admas and John Lloyd.
The two men met while walking and suffered a brief but awkward droitwich as they tried to get past one another.

Droitwich 

A pretty little town in the midlands also known as 'Droitwich Spa'. It is highly underestimated and is a nice place to live compared to some of its chavvy counterparts in surrounding areas - as long as you make sure you don't live on the 'boycott' or 'westlands' as it is now known. In fact, Ashley Giles the cricketer lives in Droitwich on Lyttleton Road (also known as millionaires row) and many old people potter about on the cobbled high street and around Waitrose. A lot of people came to Droitwich from Birmingham to obtain jobs so people sometimes refer to Droitwich residents as 'Birmingham overspill', but i know lots of people who live here whose roots aren't in Brum so this isn't necessarily true anymore.

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.
