maudit anglais

Cajun for "English-speaker" or "non-Cajun." The term goes back to when the Acadians were driven out of their homes in Acadia (part of the Canadian province of Nova Scotia) by the British Army and local officials in an early instance of ethnic cleansing.

In some parts of Louisiana, the word "anglais" ("English") is never spoken without "Maudit" ("Goddamned" or "accursed") before it - all in one term - maudit anglais = "Goddamn Englishman," "Goddamn English-speaker," "Goddamn non-Cajun ('american' understood)", or "Goddamn Yankee" ("Yankee" and maudit anglais meaning about the same thing.

We were doing all right till a maudit anglais planning commission condemned our property to build a Wal-Mart on...

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."

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?
