premorse 

1.) n. Portmanteau - pre-emptive remorse. When you're okay with the regret and shame you're going to feel (oxymoronic as that may seem), usually for instant gratification.

2.) adj. some real word meaning "having jagged edges" or something. Probably fits.

premorse 

The feeling that you're about to regret something just before you do it anyway (against your better judgment), which is immediately followed by the action and the confirmation that it was a bad idea; remorse suffered in advance.

Also shows up as that little voice in your head which says, "I've got a bad feeling about this...."
Just as I had a sense of premorse that I should grab a napkin before eating any more blueberry pie, a giant blue glob fell off of my fork onto my white shirt.

Or, for those who work on cars or other mechanical objects, the sense of premorse that you should reposition your hand, just before the wrench slips and you bang up your knuckles on something hard and painful.

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.
