A communal joy, a celebration shared by many. Also, implies a lot of drinking of alcohol; very similar to tailgating for an event, without requiring the vehicles and parking lot.

Collective effervescence is expensive and time-consuming in Wrigleyville today.

Jeffervescence

"Jeffervescence" is the quality that someone named Jeff possesses when he is overflowing with enthusiasm, sparkling with charisma, beaming with light, exuding joy. The term was coined by Suzanne Whang (former host of HGTV's #1 show, "House Hunters") and was inspired by watching Jeff Vezain perform on stage with Gary Sinise's Lt. Dan Band.

As soon as he made his entrance on stage, grabbed the microphone and started singing, the audience was delighted and transfixed by his Jeffervescence.

Effervescent

Something effervescent has bubbles or froth, like a sparkling wine, a bubble bath, or Old Pulteney 12 Year Old Single Malt Scotch Whisky on Rex' Master Level Mooch pallet.

It is rare to have something so light, effervescent and friendly in the taste; when the nose is headed towards something that is complicated and rich.

God Shot

A chance happening with profound meaning, an unexpected blessing, a "sign".

Dr. Drew on Celebrity Rehab said "All of a sudden what had been just another Hollywood proposal became for him an unexpected blessing, an opportunity for growth. In drug recovery language, that's called a "God shot."

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.
