Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

Probably one of the weirdest manga ever penned by the Japanese. Written by the satirist Koji Kumeta, it tells the tale of one Kafuka Fuura, who discovers her teacher, Nozomu Itoshiki, under a sakura tree...

He is hanging by the neck in one of his many suicide attempts. She, being endlessly optimistic, thinks he is simply trying to make himself taller. Needless to say, this is where things get quite strange...and hilarious.

He teaches a class full of strangers, from the hikikomori, to a Disassociative Personality Disorder suffering transfer student, to a stalker, to a ridiculously OCD psychopath. And a normal girl.

The series does not take itself seriously at all, and is probably the darkest, strangest, and most disturbing comedies in existence.

AND I LOVE IT.
I'M IN DESPAIR! THE FACT THAT SAYONARA ZETSUBOU SENSEI HAS ENDED HAS LEFT ME IN DESPAIR! THERE'S NO HOPE! I'M GOING TO GO DIE!

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.
