Noun.

A connoisseur of ratchet women, especially those pulled from nightclubs after last call. The ratcheteer's natural mating call is Rihanna's Talk That Talk which he requests from the DJ or sits in the parking lot banging from his car. The Ratcheteer has a specialized mating dance, similar to a body roll, used to signal ratchets that he is in heat. He is especially adept at disposing of evidence in parking lots.

Once a ratcheteer has identified and brought his ratchet back from the club for an "afterparty" he seeks out four specific environments for mating:

1. A living room full of partygoers
2. A public balcony
3. Someones kitchen
4. An air mattress

The ratcheteer typically will have no recollection of the previous evening as they will sleep until noon the next day. They will only find out about their behavior once on word spreads of their ratchetry on social media websites. Ratcheteers will spend all Monday at work on Facebook deleting evidence so close friends and family do not discover their ratchetness.

Q. What time is it?
A. 1:57 AM.

Q. Did you see that guy parking lot creepin' on those ratchets?
A. Yes, he promised them soda and nuggets at his afterpary.

Q. He should be put on probation for ratcheteering son.
A. Fo sho. bboy.

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.
