Zebs.fesh.stekenda defect 

A German phrase that means, a self-hiding problem or defect. It describes a frustrating and commonly encountered situation, where you try and show someone a problem(or anomaly or defect) that you've been experiencing or observing, But you can't reproduce or demonstrate the problem because the problem or defect has seemingly MAGICALLY disappeared and everything functions or appears as it should!! (leaving you looking confused and feeling really stupid). These days it is most commonly a problem with your phone, computer or some kind of device (but it could be a problem or anomaly that you are experiencing or observing with anything really e.g. an abstract idea, an observed event, concept or demonstration).
<<Zebst.fash.stekenda.defect>> is a simplified phonetic pronunciation of the German phrase - Selbstversteckender Defekt - which means "Self-hiding problem or defect"

A more accurate pronunciation would be <<Zebst.fesht.stekenda defect>> the t sound on the first two phonemes adding to the authentic German-sounding pronunciation. [You can use Google translate for an accurate pronunciation rendition).

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.
