A line from the William and Mary alma mater song. The full verse goes:

"William and Mary, loved of old,
Hark upon the gale!
Hear the thunder of our chorus,
Alma mater hail!"

The college and the students use this phrase a lot, both seriously and in jokes. It is a well-known phrase to anyone at the college.

A few freshmen in the dining hall, loudly: "William and Mary, loved of old..."
Camille: Some freshmen are singing the Alma Mater agian.
Joey: Let's join them!
Camille: Are you serious?
Literally everyone in the dining hall: HARK UPON THE GALE! HEAR THE THUNDER OF OUR CHORUS...

Galen

Probably one of the best people you will ever meet. His charisma and charm works wonders on everyone he talks to. When he smiles, it can give you an almost indescribable feeling like your running among the clouds, filled with a joy like no other. His personality is exceptional and he's hard to get to know at first, but once you do, make sure you keep him as a friend forever. He's irreplaceable. And he's normally really cute.

Guy 1: I was talking to Galen the other day and he smiled at me. I felt my heart skip a beat.
Girl 1: You talk about him so much lololol

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.
