alternadude 

Noun. - A male (usually young, bourgeois) who considers himself removed from the mainstream, yet is actually rooted quite firmly in it. Prone to posting Bob Dylan lyrics as status updates on Facebook, owning several pairs of Converse shoes and swearing by his copy of "Fight Club".

An alternachick is a female version of an alternadude; the concept is the same but the symptoms may vary. Alternachicks like antique shopping, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" and 'photography'.

The terms are often used derisively and in a condescending manner. Often coupled with ironic remarks.
Oh, yeah, Jake's a real alternadude. Spent all lunch trying to impress me with his theories on "Donnie Darko".

Did you see Lois's latest Facebook pictures? They're just a bunch of empty chairs with all this filtering crap going on. She's such an alternachick, that one.

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.
