Outbox Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder suffered by text messages. Much like the human equivalent, agoraphobia, outbox agoraphobia is where the text message suffers from panic attacks in the public, and so decides it best to stay in the relative safety of the outbox.
The condition is most commonly caused by lack of mobile reception and/or lack of mobile credit.
Side effects of the disorder include anxiety of the phone owner themself as they don't recieve a reply, and then annoyance as they realize the text is still sitting in their outbox ready to resend an hour later.

text conversation:
17.31-Phoebe: What time is the table booked for? x
18.26-Phoebe: James? What time is it booked for? x
18.27-James: Oh sorry! It was for 6pm, I thought you were late, I sent you a reply earlier but it had outbox agoraphobia! x

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.
