The term describes a combination of a picky, unrefined eater and a pretentious "wine snob" who actually knows nothing about wine. It targets someone who aggressively tries to fake culinary sophistication to impress others, despite having a completely clueless and basic understanding of taste. A person described as a "palatard" will typically:

Pretend to be an expert: They confidently throw around fancy terminology like "tannins", "terroir", or "notes of oak" without having any actual idea what those concepts mean.

Fail at describing flavors: When put on the spot, they make nonsensical or wildly inaccurate descriptions of what they are drinking, instantly exposing their lack of a refined palate.

Mask their ignorance with confidence: They desperately crave the social status of being seen as sophisticated, but end up looking foolish to anyone with actual knowledge.

Revert to childish tastes: Outside of trying to show off, they secretly prefer completely plain, bland, or sweet comfort foods and show a stubborn refusal to genuinely experience complex flavor profiles.

In short, it describes someone who is severely stunted in their ability to appreciate food and drink, but too prideful and pretentious to admit it.
"He has absolutely no idea what he's talking about—he’s such a palatard."

Someone who insists that they are better because they knew of Paramore before Twilight, failing to realise it was already over played before there was talk about a Twilight Movie. They tend to whine and complain. Hate Decode (maybe ever Airplanes) and feel the need to make it clear that they hate Twilight. They're under the delusion that you can't be a "true" fan unless you knew of them before Twilight. Most only know of the band because Fuse used to play them every hour back when it was mostly music.
Cassie: Ugh, this chick was listening to Decode so I punched her in the face, like really. She ain't a true fan.

Lilly: Wow, I didn't know I was friends with a Paratard.

A paletard is somebody who is pro-Palestine protestor.

Paletards are not to be confused with somebody who is anti-war, like a libertarian perhaps. Paletards are very much pro-war, but are just upset that the U.S. isn’t involved in their side of the war. Paletards are also generally unaware of the things that they claim to support, and are often hypocritical in the ways that they protest.

For example, Paletards believe that Israel is on occupied land, and they should be forced to leave that land. However, the Paletards will protest this by occupying land they don’t own (on colleges and universities all over the United States, thousands of miles away), cosplaying as homeless people by living in tents and they will whine when they are removed from that land in the way they think Israel should be forced out of Palestine.
“Hey Brad, what’s going on over on the other side of campus?”

“Good question Chad. I think the Queers for Palestine are protesting for an end to the war.”

“That’s kinda cringe. Don’t those paletards know if they protested over in Gaza they’d be thrown off a building?”

“Good point. Let’s go wave some American Flags and throw deodorant and job applications at them.”

“That’s a based idea. These paletards should shut up and go fight.”

palitard 

Palitard is anyone who is supporting or participating in Jihadist terror related to the Arabs currently occupying Judea and Gaza. Those arabs culturally appropriated the term British Palestinian Mandate in the 1960s as a purely anti-semetic movement to destroy the single Jewish state.
We are seeing more Palitards on our streets lately, it's a worrying sign.

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.
