petty lust 

A term coined to mean the lust that one feels for someone that is not full on "I HAVE TO HAVE YOU RIGHT NOW" and yet is not just "Oh hey you're kind of hot." It is that middle ground of being attracted to someone more than just a little bit but still not enough to potentially go out of your way to act on it.
"What do you think of Jamie?"
"Oh he's pretty hot...yeah I'd tap that."
"Ask him out!"
"No, it's just petty lust."

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.
