~noun~ (twa-lay) When someone is guilty of, or is caught in the act of performing "extra shit" (see definition), which gets in the way of the original plan(s). This person ends up fucking up everything because they cannot stick to the original plans and are acting "twalee."
The original plan was to play an epic round of zombies and then go get something to eat. As soon as the round was over, Pete had to make a phone call to the love of his life, holding the rest of us up from a delicious meal, all the while saying he would only be a few minutes, when in fact he was on the phone for 20-30 minutes and THEN wanted to stop at TWO other stores BEFORE we could go get food, therefore earning him the title of "twalee" for the evening.

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.
