Michigan Technological University is located at the top of the UP in the Keweenaw peninsula. The student population is only 26% women, and the winter is so grueling (up to 360 inches of snow) that most people begin having mental breakdowns around mid february.

To make the students feel better about their lives at MTU, the school used a ploy developed by the psychology department, and created a Four night long drinking festival. The end result was that students hangovers were so horrible by the end of the festival that they forgot all about how much winter sucked and were able to make it to spring sanity intact.

do not attempt carnival if you are pregnant, have liver disease, or plan on living past 50.

The Gym Winter Arc

The arc in which a man bulks up by gaining as much muscle as possible during winter while wearing a hoodie/baggy clothes to later cut the excess fat in time for summer to be shredded.

The gym winter arc is up ahead. Time to put my head down and get to work.

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.

caillou

A slang term used to describe a bald person, typically someone who is completely bald or has a closely shaved head. The term is derived from the infamous, hairless kids’ cartoon character of the same name.

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.”
