splainer 

Using humor and fun to explain things and make them understandable. Splainers often rely on one (or sometimes all) of the following: theme, metaphor (sometimes mixed-metaphors), props, situation, etc…
Jenny cracked me up. Her splainer about how satellite radio works involved coconuts, tin foil, gum wrappers and an Emeril Lagasse beet juicer.

Splainer 

A joke that none of its recipients get, and then needs to be explained.

Generally is a bad joke that wasn't funny in the first place.
Jim stopped telling the joke halfway through once he realized it was inevitably going to be a splainer.

Class 'splainer 

A person who thinks they can tell someone with a working class occupation (tradesperson/retail staff/food prep or service etc) how to do their job because 'how difficult can it be really'.

The typical class 'splainer has a degree level education or higher and seems to think their 2:2 in music tech qualifies them to explain plumbing to a plumber. You might overhear a class 'splainer lecture a 19 year old part time sales assistant on stock rotation before asking 'what kind of opperation are you running here', insisting that running out of a particular item is 'ridiculous' and demanding 100% discount for the inconvenience.

Some class 'splainers don't have much educational attainment but instead climbed the ranks of whatever leeching corportation was stupid enough to raise them to the dizzying hights of middle management after taking a night course in whatever defunct version of MS Office they're still running. Such individuals will try to compensate for feeling like an outsider at work by lording it over service staff often by insisting they 'don't see why you can't just {insert unreasonable demand}' and snorting 'it's hardly difficult'. These people might feel the need to affect an upper class British accent.

Any push back is met with some variation of who do you think you are / who do you think you're talking to. Intersects with mansplainer though sometimes women do it too.
Some condescending toff won't shut up about the EU regulations on pints, he keeps saying everythings ridiculous and demanding the finest wines.

He's a Class 'splainer, tell him he's barred!

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 1:
“Did you see that caillou over there? His head is reflecting the sun like a disco ball.”
Example 2:
“I think Dave is finally accepting his hair loss. He just went full caillou and shaved the whole thing off.”
