Chicken Littler

A person who claimed in 2000 that "the science is settled" and if we didn't cut CO2 emissions to zero the polar ice would be melted by 2020 and we'd all be under water.
Joe Repub: "The science is settled! If we don't stop using oil and go vegan our coastal cities and island nations will be GONE by 2020! It'll be the end of civilization!"

2024 rolls around, we're using more oil and eating more meat than ever, yet the ice caps haven't melted, our coastal cities and island nations are still there, and civilization marches on.

Joe Repub: "The science is evolving!"

Me: "You sound like a Chicken Littler."

Chicken Little Syndrome 

Every time someone believes the hype behind an apocalyptic theory that will end the world, and the hysteria that ensues. It is an old cumulative tale about a chicken (or a hare in an early version) who believes the world is coming to an end. The phrase "The sky is falling" has passed into the English language as a common idiom indicating a hysterical or mistaken belief that disaster is imminent.
Suffering from Chicken Little Syndrome, Johnny believes that either the Mayans were just lazy, or the world is coming to an end in 2012.

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.
