To truthfully manipulate a fact to make it sound less harsh and/or worse than the straight truth.

To say the truth in a manner where it doesn't actually sound that bad.

"I have a broken testicle, but my doctor sugarcoated it, and called it a 'loose nut that just needs tightening'."

sugarcoat

Making words in a sentence seem kinder than what they are to avoid hurting someone's feelings.

some fat kid: dude, are you gonna eat that?
some guy: yea man, boy why do you always ask for other people's food?
some fat kid: because i'm always hungry.
some guy: you are so fat man, and i'm not going to sugarcoat it neither because you'll probably eat that too.

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.
