Homo Sovieticus 

The term is pseudo-Latin/dog Latin and a sarcastic reference to the average Joe lived in the Soviet Union and considered by political zealots as the next level of evolution of humanity, nor is this creature of the Marxist social experiment by any means extinct.

In reality the homo sovieticus was an inactive and submissive tool who waded and queued up in the bureaucratic shit creek and whose main characteritics were drunkenness, complete passivity and who contempt for work and common property and avoided all personal responsibility. Activity occurred in the aforementioned boozing and the theft of common property, in the latter case, the stolen goods were sold and this additional income was used for the goods avaiable on the black markets at high prices due to chronic shortages of certain goods.

Sovok was also an extreme ignoramus who believed uncritically everything what the government's propaganda said, otherwise the coercive power, though with the help of barbed wire, would have collapsed sooner.

Homo sovieticus will never admit any wrongdoings they have done and will never compensate for the damages - in that respect it is consistent, nor have the Mongols done so though they squatted the Slavs for a quarter of a millennium.

Today nothing essential hasn't changed in a mindset of homo post-sovieticus because it is in their genes and Putler's propaganda machinery provides information to the extent that independent thinking is unnecessary.
"Russian tourists seem to be miserable drivers."
"Sure, it's because of their Homo Sovieticus inheritance, cars are relatively new vehicles for them - they used to travel abroad by tanks when liberated oppressed nations."

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.

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.
