Shelf-righteous 

(adj.) Having or being characterized by an unprecedented lack of morality in the presence of others, often to please others. Someone who is shelf-righteous is congenitally virtuous, but often leaves their morals ‘on the shelf’ in the presence of their friends or coworkers. A shelf-righteous act is typically done to appease a peer whose view is highly bigoted or jaundiced.
Person 1:I can’t fathom why he would ever say such a thing. He’s not that kind of person.
Person 2: He probably said it in the heat of the moment, in the presence of his friends.
Person 1: Wow he’s so shelf-righteous.

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.
