Made popular after politics professor Matthew Goodwin promised to eat his new book if Labour polled over 38% in the 2017 UK general election under Jeremy Corbyn.

On 27 May 2017 he tweeted: "I'm saying this out loud. I do not believe that Labour, under Jeremy Corbyn, will poll 38%. I will happily eat my new Brexit book if they do".
After the 2017 election, where Labour gained 40% of the vote under Corbyn, Matthew ate his book on live TV after a large amount of pressure on Twitter.

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.
