The fear of being happy or the fear of the general feeling of happiness. A person that's Cherophobic might feel guilty about feeling happy (think they don't deserve to be happy) and soon after become depressed or they might avoid happiness and things that might make them happy in fear of something bad happening afterwards. These people could seem completely normal and live perfectly normal lives but usually avoid hanging out with friends and or doing fun activities where they might become happy.

Kat has Cherophobia, she won't go to the party tonight.

Chavrose

Someone of humble origins, new to the middle class who makes a big deal about food shopping at Waitrose or M&S. Such types will lose no opportunity to let you know where that "delightful couscous salad" came from and will frequently carry other items in a Waitrose/M&S bag to drive the point home. Normally the dregs of society who get their news from The Daily Mail, they will often scorn Aldi/Lidl shoppers and invite others to share their disgusting insecurity. Regard themselves as "posh", a word and a concept that is alien to anyone with breeding.

That Chavrose was around again this morning, banging on about who came to her dinner party.

Oh God, that awful Chavrose is coming over. I've never met anyone so common.

Cherokee Grandmother Syndrome

Claiming one has some distant Native American ancestor in order to sound more exotic or interesting when in fact no such Native American ancestor exists.

This practice is also relatively common by some American celebrities and personalities.

Larry: "And my great-great grandmother was part Choctaw and Apache."

Bob: "Larry, that's BS, your paternal grandparents where German immigrants and your maternal grandparents were Irish immigrants. You sound like you have a case of Cherokee Grandmother Syndrome."

James: "Hey did you hear Elizabeth Warren is 1/32nd Cherokee?"

Dustin: "Pff, yeah sure man"

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?
