Concatenation of 'else' and 'if' found in some programming languages such as Ruby and Perl. This frankensteinian combination of the two words exists because it simplifies the abstract syntax tree that is generated to parse the language over the use of the more understandable 'else if'.

Ensiferum 

A really awesome Finnish band.
People argue too much about what genre it is.
It doesn't matter if its Pagan, viking, folk or black metal.
Ensiferum is just an awesome band and you should appreciate that. No... You MUST appreciate it. When Jari Maenpaa left Ensiferum, he was replaced by Petri Lindroos, and he's doing pretty good.

Ensiferum is so awesome it can kill hippies in a range of 2 miles from the speaker at 50 decibels

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.
