romance is really a business 

Romantic relationships are a business—because each party is trying to get the most for the least, a negotiation, and a can culminate in a partnership where both parties reproduce themselves by having children.
C.M. Fabara realized that contradicting the prevailing understanding of what romantic relationships and love are, romance is really a business where the man and the woman both work to get the most they can by giving the least to the other person. Of course, sometimes participants in a romantic relationship "fall in love" and start giving the most they can to the other person. However, their purpose is always to get the most in return. Also, keep in mind that love is basically need. And the way it works is by making individuals feel love for someone they calculate will be able to and will satisfy one or more of their needs, such as sex, protection, connections, etc.

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.
