tuggeranong

A region of Canberra located in the ACT, considered by many to be rather backwater. Tuggeranong is centuries behind the rest of Canberra in terms of hygiene, and standard of living. Many Tuggeranong inhabitants are forced to live in shanty towns, with houses made from anything they can find. Some examples of these shanty towns include Conder, Banks, Chisolm, and Bonython. The average life expectancy for somewhere who lives in Tuggeranong their whole life is a mere 47, compared to 78 for somewhere who is native to Woden. Tuggeranong even has its own dialect. It's vastly different from the language experienced a mere few mile to the north, with excessive use of the 'fucking' and an emphasis on the wrong syllables. This dialect is very similar to the dialect experienced in the Queanbeyan region of NSW. The interchange of Tuggeranong is inhabited by mainly petrol-sniffing aboriginals as opposed to the interchange of Woden which is inhabited by the Subaru WRX driving wogs.
" I used to live in Tuggeranong, and then I thought WOW, this is really shit, so then I moved somewhere decent."
"Ayy wanna go to the Hyperdome and fight some freshies?"
Ahhhhhhhh yeaaaaaaaaaaahhhh mattttttttteeee rightoooo. (an example of the tuggeranong dialect.

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.
