Flâneur 

A person that is able to saunter around and wander detached from society with no other purpose than to be an acute observer of his surroundings. He/she is deliberately aimless, just soaking in his surroundings through different perspectives. Perspectives that are untouched by others who see these surroundings as normal and don't even dwell on it.

Flâneur (pronounced flɑnœʁ), from the French noun flâneur, means stroller, lounger, saunterer, or loafer.
The flâneur was essential to any picture of the streets of Paris, a literary type from the 19th-century in France. Now flâneur has become an important symbol for scholars, artists and writers.
He is a real flâneur when he takes the bus; just staring out of the window and observing the normal but weird things humans do.

Words you can keep
Someone strolling around, innocently observing everything around, like a spy. A person who is reconnoitering.
The best flaneurs are people who blend in and don't attract attention to themselves, people you forget the moment you have passed them.

ENTRE-FLANEUR

An individual who saunters through life, getting involved in randomness to see what happens:

Entrepreneur (originally a french word):
A person who sets up a business or businesses, taking on financial risks in the hope of profit... Someone who finds a way.

Flaneur (originally a french word):
An individual who saunters around observing society.

The two words come together to make "entre-flaneur"
I thought they were only watching, but then they got involved, look at that "entre-flaneur" go... I bet that opens doors for them, I bet they make bank!

Or:

When I grow up, I wanna be an "entre-flaneur", so I can make interesting YouTube videos and get paid for it... I was thinking pranks or observational comedy!

Flanery is a word meaning 'extremely cool'.

Flanery was a word developed by CJ, the God of Crittannia. (see eCritters) If you ever want to become flanery, you must use this word and worship CJ. Or else.

There are also negative forms of the word 'flanery', including 'unflanery', meaning 'not cool', and 'doubleplusunflanery', meaning '/really/ uncool and bad'.
CJ, God of Crittannia, is very flanery.
Nerdzrool is the doubleplusunflanery antigod.

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.
