number is up

Someone's number is up the moment before they die. When used in the past tense, it means they were destined to die at the very time they actually did die. When used in the present tense, it might be a threat to kill someone immediately.

The phrase is perhaps based on the Take-a-Number System, in which customers take a numbered ticket rather than waiting in line. When the clerk calls out your number, "your number is up", and it is your turn to place your order with the clerk. Of course, the clerk might be the grim reaper instead!
A tree fell and killed him because his number was up. OR: You've pissed me off too many times, Humberto; your number is up.

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.
