Often the only and/or the last resort as an option for higher education among Caribbean students. While some Faculties have been updated/ upgraded throughout the years, others have remained basically the same since many Caribbean nations were still colonies. Rude/ unhelpful administrators ensures customer service is always bad, lack of funding means that the University is seemingly always on the verge of banruptcy, and trying to eek out as money much from students. That wouldn't be so bad, if there were decent facilities- but good luck finding a textbook or research paper written within the last 5 yearsfrom the library, and you should always expect something to not work at some time or the other. There are some very good lecturers here, but UWI also hosts the literal worst, who fail so spectacularly at saying something remotely comprehensible in the span of 1-2 hours . It goes without saying water, internet and electricity problems are expected.
I don't have any money to go to a passably decent university away. Guess I'll have to go UWI. How bad could it be

Three Years Later: At least I wasn't gang raped by monkeys that turned out to be HIV postive, although there was a time during my program at UWI it felt pretty close to that.

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.

Example 2:
