A verbal mistake, when one accidentally and ironically fuses two contradictory words together, which in this case are 'exactly' and 'actually', thus creating a meaningless compound word. (Not to be confused with, 'It's actually', which sounds similar when spoken at a fast pace). Because of it's nature, when used, the word does not make clear whether or not the speaker means to continue or finish, since the word 'exactly' is usually a response which concludes an idea, and the word 'actually' signifies that there is more dialogue to come - therein lies the humour.

Person 1: 'Hey we should go to Henry's Coffee House for lunch.'

Person 2: 'No, it's way too expensive in there!'

Person 3: 'Exactually.'

Person 1: What? Did you mean 'exactly', or did you mean 'actually'? As in that you were going to suggest somewhere else instead?? You're not making any sense.

Person 3: Sorry! I meant 'exactly' but for some reason I had the word 'actually' in my head, and therefore said 'exactually' by accident! Sorry guys!

exactually

This word is a combination of the words exactly and actually. Used when it is unclear whether it is more appropriate to use exactly or actually, and/or it is best fit to use both simultaneously.

I am not exactually sure what this definition means.

God Shot

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.
