Norbering 

The participation in several events on a single occasion / night.

A common plot device in sitcoms, and comedy films.
Jerry: "I have decided to have two dates in one day, to save time"
George: "But how will you be able to meet two girls on the same night"

George: "I don't know Jerry, this kind of Norbering could get you into a lot of trouble"
Jerry: "Nonsense, my good friend Norber is doing that for year, and no one is the wisest"

When you know a lot of information about something unusual, usually nerdy, and express it with great enthusiasm.
Bruce: Batman never killed his villains until Robin died, which is the only reason why people began to call him 'The Dark Knight'. And in the series 'The Dark Knight Returns', Robin was a girl after Jason died.

Wayne: Dude, relax. I only said I was excited for The Dark Knight.

Bruce: Sorry, I was nerding out for a minute there.

Neandering 

The tendency for men to resort to their primordial caveman tendencies when they are without women for an extended period of time.

Nerdjerking 

Very similar to nerdjacking, but when a person digresses into extreme detail about any and every uninteresting topic. While a nerdjacker tends to "go into extreme and/or unnecessary detail about one’s passion," the nerdjerker will go on about any given subject and usually has very little or absolutely no expertise on the topic (although they speak with such detail that the naive could be fooled into thinking the nerdjerker actually knows what he/she is talking about). Nerdjerking is not aimed at only one passion, as the typical nerdjerker is passionate about any random, irrelevant, topic.

It's easy to fall victim of a nerdjerker's tangent. Regardless of your obvious lack of interest in the topic; nerdjerkers will continue talking until you run away. No matter what, do not respond or input your opinion. This will only cause the person to believe that you actually care about what he/she is talking about and will continue on with an increased passion.
Jane: I accidentally mentioned the economy to Alice and she went off for an hour about how the cost of pens are the cause for poverty. I had no clue what she was even talking about.

Jamie: Yea, you've got to be careful. Alice loves nerdjerking and there is no stopping her once she starts talking. Never mention and of her exes or she will nerdjerk for hours.

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.

Example 2:
