A question male colleagues used to ask back in the old days before you could just go to Facebook and see all the details of how everyone's wives are doing.

How's the wife?

She's doing fine, thanks.

Not according to her status update this morning she isn't.

Well then what did you ask me for, you @#$%!

"How's it hanging?"
"I'm fine, thanks! I just got out of the closet, finally I can express my true self instead of living a lie!"

or

"How's it hanging?"

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.
