jammin' my frequencies

When someone is all up in your "kool-aid" either by accident or on purpose. When someone is too close for your particular comfort.

While you are working on your PC and some guy comes up looking over your shoulder and his junk bangs into your shoulder. Or maybe a barber leans too close while you are under the shroud in a barbers chair, "junking" your arm or elbow that is rested on the barbers chair arm rest. You would at this point exclaim, "How 'bout hangin' back, ya jammin' my frequencies!"

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?
