You're adopted! 

A comeback without much reason behind it besides random shock/bewilderment value. It is similar in usage to "You're Face!" or other random things that can be said as a comeback.

NOTE: This comeback is however tricky to use as saying it to a person who IS indeed adopted would be in very bad taste.

NOTE: This term is best used to friends or people you know are not adopted.
Person #1: "I don't understand why you would do that. That has to be the stupidest thing I have ever heard of a person doing!"

Person #2: "Shut up, you're adopted!"

Person #1: I am adopted, you monster!

Person #1: Oh! Well... I... uh...
What I am. Something that not only happens to a person but plays a major part in shaping who they are, what they do and how they treat others. It's no ones fault. Understand, Deal and Move On. You'll only burn if you can't get past it.
You're Adopted. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
You still want me right?
Of course

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.
