sanphorism 

In a flash of clarity, a handful of words are carefully selected to form a memorable, more often than not - optimistic - insight on the world. Poignant, concise - these are the staples to the philosophical exploration done alone at night. These thoughts are spewed out to the world though tweets and status updates. It is common to see encouragement through the forms of likes.

Be confident enough to succeed in what you do, be humble enough to learn from others.

Drinking from the cup of love and the sometimes loveless, of countless failures, scarce triumphs, and infinite hope.

I don't quote people because they are right. I quote people because there are many faces to humanity, all of which we need to understand.
A: I just made a realization last night: humans are all capable of loving one another regardless of their pasts.

B: Oh man, we got a sanphorism on our hands. Hold on one second and let me tweet this.

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.
