randomly 

Related to 'random,' an adverb used by undergraduate English students to indicate that a verb happens for no particular reason or according to no particular pattern. The people engaged in the 'random' activity ('randomly running') may have no idea that they are running, _or_ they may not have considered the consequences of their act.

Your overworked graduate student TAs beg you to use a more INTERESTING AND EXPRESSIVE word than 'randomly.' Please. For the love of Pete, Dale, or Homer...
"The most recent concern about homosexuality seemed to arise during the turn of the century, around the time when couples were able to randomly get married in Las Vegas." (This is an actual sentence--I just read it in a first-year English paper.)

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.
