Petering Your Novak

What does it mean to Peter your Novak? Why do we uses this term, this can most be simply described in song and dance. Petering your Novak was developed by high-tech scientists in 1987 to develop a pure essence of life. During this wondering to create something so beautiful. This would end up being to be a tragedy however; the whole experiment went south! The results were somewhat of a anti-pure-essence which took the minds of many and showed them the reality that we call "Petering-your-Novak". The minds of these scientists became manic and would often become uncensored doing what they want.

To this day nobody knows the true effects of Petering on that Novak

Now the term Petering your Novak is used to remember those times. it is often used to describe grotesque events. At the same time describing the most beautiful ones.

You can say - "I petered my Novak" for a sense of how you could use this.

What it means is usually up to the user. This way nobody can really be upset when it comes to Petering their Novak

"You're Petering Your Novak."

Pathering

Not big enough for a party, but not small enough for a gathering. Alcohol must be consumed and music must be played for it to be considered a pathering.

OMG I WAS AT THE BEST PATHERING THE OTHER NIGHT.

Paltering

Paltering (gerund or verb) and palter (verb) refer to an extremely common practice of lying and deceiving with true statements. Probably the most common form of paltering (especially among politicians and interviewees on media) is answering a challenging or embarrassing question with a statement which is true but does not address the original question. Frustrated questioners sense the lie, but instead of identifying the paltering, often rephrase and repeat their original question. Strangely, very few know this word and its phenomenon, thinking a lie must be only a misstatement of fact. Check out a long scholarly article on paltering at www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/psp-pspi0000081.pdf .

By subtle paltering, the witness at a Senate hearing avoided all the challenging and important questions that Senators directed his way, leaving the Senators with a sense of confusion and frustration.

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.
