Classic bear trap 

A deception or misunderstanding that results in a classic rookie/ basic error that is typically made by an individual with a rudimentary understanding of a given task or activity. The individual is tricked by and falls into the ‘classic bear trap’, being deceived into making this error thinking that it will be beneficial for them, but instead results in negative effects on the individual making the mistake.

A ‘classic bear trap’ is in effect the cause of a common rookie mistake.
Example 1: A guy is getting back with his ex for the third time even though she cheated on him twice. The act of her making herself available to him and pretending she wants only him is a classic bear trap for the guy, as he is deceived into thinking she still loves him and won’t sleep with other men.

Example 2: A straight male in Nana Plaza, Thailand, paying an attractive bargirl - who appears female - for sex. This is a classic bear trap as the straight male expects the bargirl to be female, when they are in fact a ladyboy, and thus may end up being pegged which does not typically align with a straight males sexual preferences.

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.

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.
