Set in June 1983 in the rural village of Hinamizawa; it has a population of approximately 2000. Keiichi Maebara moves there and makes many friends; Rena Ryuuguu, Mion Sonozaki, Rika Furude and Sotoko Houjou. Hinamizawa may seem like a peaceful and calm town, but not everything is as it seems. Every year, during the annual Watanagashi Festival, one person disappears, and the other is murdered. Keiichi soon becomes involved in this intricate mystery... and solving it will not be easy. He is constantly dogged by extreme paranoia and illusion. But even with these obstacles, the mystery slowly reveals itself.

- "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni is a good but scary anime!"
- "The characters in Higurashi are so cute!"
- "Man, Higurashi scares the living crap out of me."
- "The music in Higurashi fits it really well."

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.
