Noun. A statement that is obviously bullshit but will nonetheless convince a large audience to believe it, because the author doubles down on their lie by also pretending they have expertise in the field.

From German origins "Aber-kann" (although possible) and french "ânerie" (donkeys will buy it)

A- So I listened to a podcast where the author says there is a new scientific way to use your brain better.

B- Sounds like bullshit to me. Neuroscientists barely understand how the brain works.

A- but wait he says he knows better because he has three pH.Ds, and has given 400 talks on the topic, and went to Stanford...
B- he is probably faking his resume too. You should stop listening to these Aberkâneries.

abercrombie sucks

They suck. There clothes all look the same. They put their logos on every piece of clothing they make, and they don't make clothes that fit overweight people, which is cruel to some people. All of the so called "cool" kids wear them. Most of them just listen to one direction because the majority of the people that wear them are teenage girls. That is basically about it.

I saw a girl wearing abercombie on youtube. She had one direction posters everywhere. Case Closed. Abercrombie sucks.

Named “Aber park” the park owns the local library and also, the football (soccer) club.

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.
