Software Engineer

A person who is rejected by the Engineering community, due to a dispute over whether software engineering is really engineering, despite the fact that software engineers don't purely write code and actually are taught other aspects of engineering.
John (Mech Eng): Hey Jim, what do you do for a living?
Jim: I'm a software engineer.
John: Nerd!
Jim: Yeah? Well this nerd wrote the program for the flight computer of the aircraft you are designing, as well as the program you used to design it. Lazy ass.
John: Meehheeh fucker. *Aside* (Dude I wish I make as much as he does. All these stupid fucking problems I did and all I get for it is to be made fun of by a rather sexy man actually.)

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.

Example 2:
