Infighting
1)When you and/or someone else Criticize a friend or a Political Party, or a News organization that lean towards your political affiliation, but don't agree on specifics and practicalities that fit your niche of that political affiliation.
In other words, you have the same broad worldview of how things should be but you disagree on the specifics.

2)One might blame another for "shooting in the tent" when he criticizes and chastises members of his own political party while the opponents of said party can gain power on the back of "Infighting".

The metaphor is for a guy that has a guy in a tent and has beef with one person and tries to shoot him while endangering his friends as well.

"Man, you really have to stop Shooting in the tent. we're all on the same side after all."

"You don't have to agree 100% and still work for the bigger issues.

But if you keep shooting in the tent you will bring all of us down!"

Rain-In-The-Tent

The act of a man ejaculating on a woman's face without her knowing it is happening while inside a house or tent. Then she will think it is "raining" inside.

I got that girl with a good rain-in-the-tent the other night while she was sleeping. She woke up and thought there was a leak in the ceiling.

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.
