Ferking is a nautical term derived from the or pearl punishment of the chief / cook or ships mate who spoils the food being prepared. This could be buring the food, letting it go off or failing to ensure th Ferk (barrel lid) is securely fastened, so as to preserve the stored perishables for the voyage. Ferking is done like applied punishment, with the use of paddles and other instruments in both S&M today and in the discipline in olden days.

Today it's more commonly used as a less offensive alternative to Fucking (Forniction under the command of the King) as a derogatory swear word for implied sexul performance. In any case Ferking still replicates the expression of disappointment and disapproval of a person, situation.
You are Ferking terrible at cooking.

The Cook didn't put the Ferk on properly and the fruit has turned. He's getting a good Ferking for that.

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.

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.
