An unproved political theory that the "People Action Party" (PAP)—the only political party that has ruled Singapore since independence—uses lawsuits to silence critics, and favors detention without trial for those who promote racial or religious hatred.
Ex-PAP member and former presidential candidate, Dr. Tan, is appealing Singapore's High Court's dismissal of his legal challenge that the upcoming Presidential Election should be an affirmative election—however, his fears of being a victim of PAPism for "rejecting multiracism" are not unfounded.

Taking the papiss 

When a goal of such amazing quality is scored during a football match. It will often defy the laws of physics and is capable of silencing an entire stadium of rival fans. Stems from Newcastle's Senegalese sensation Papiss Cisse

1: A(n) (often unconscious) belief that pace is a primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that pacial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular pace.

2: A belief that a hurried pace is superior to that of a slower pace

3: An obnoxious impatience with slow pace. Type A personalities often exhibit this impatience and oppress those of slower pace.
In a coffee shop one notices the pacist telling a barista who is preparing a caffeinated beverage to order, "Hurry up! I have a meeting!!!" The pacist acts as if their own timing and agendas are not only superior to that of the slower pace people but that the slower pace of others is inherently annoying or cause for oppression. Pacism is the underlying factor in impatience with others' slower pace.

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.
