A casual greeting local to the Ventura, CA area, 'Shally' can be used otherwise as an expression of admiration, joy or occasionally light flirtation.

Pronounced Shall-ee, with the stress on the second syllable, when spoken the speaker often adopts a winking, card-games-and-cocktails like tone.

Shally rose to prominence in 2019 featuring in several viral Tik Took videos - however its original genesis is believed to come from a contraction of the name of beloved Dallas Cowboys linebacker Sean Lee. Other possible origins include the Hindi word for 'surgical' ('shaly') and the mispronunciation of the French word for a luxury mountain hut.

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.
