barrel rolls 

The clockwise or counterclockwise circular movement created by the contour of one's body when attempting to find a comfortable and successful sleep position. The individual may first try the "on the side" approach, but once that doesn't work, he/she may attempt to move to the "on the stomach" approach, followed by the "other side", and then finally "the back". Once the full circle fails, he/she then tries to repeat the entire process again, resulting in the form of a barrel roll.
Due to Paul's insomnia, he had a bad case of the barrel rolls for hours and then finally ended up just rubbing one out.

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.
