Derived from the Latin Descendere (“go down”), it is defined as fear of walking down stairs or inclines; fear or discomfort while descending stairs or walking down a hill; fear of going down in a lift or elevator. The symptoms can include dizziness and space disorientation and in extreme cases it can reach the state of irrational fear.

I do wonder if Donald Trump suffers from bathmophobia or descendophobia.

Destenie

A random out going girl who is charming, sweet and funny.

She will listen to you even if she doesn't care about what you

are saying. A Destiney loves bright colors and gets distracted

easily by shiny things. A Destiney is NOT like most girls,

and is capable of stealing your heart before you even know it.

Man, I love Destenie She is the best

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.
