de-tag
Verb (it's what you do)
1) The act of removing one's self, usually represented as a label or a tag, from a facebook picture that either depicts the individual under incriminating circumstances or being inebriated while doing something humiliating.
2) The act of coining a weird word like "detag" just so you can sound even remotely cool. Well, this person in particular is cool, regardless.
3) This might actually be a weird Facebook jargon I'm completely unaware of. So...my bad!
Hieu had some pretty revealing pictures of himself on facebook, in which some idiot tagged -- so now the whole world knows about his dirty little secrets. Then he talked to Christine about it and she threw out the word "detag" so that I can untag myself. Problem solved.

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.
