Galvanistic 

galvanism is the concept, uh, the obsolete scientific theory that there is a kind of electricity flowing through our bloodstreams
And that was our life force
I used the term because I came across it in, uh, Mary Shelley's, uh, "Frankenstein"
And that book is sort of an exploration of the theme of creating a character, of making up a person
So I used the term "galvanistic" to allude to that book as a sort of a symbol of how I like, created you as a character
I'm pretending that I know a lot more about you than I actually do
And also to refer to the fact that I've fall—fallen in love with the characters you've created in, uh, your body of work
You galvanistic young boy
You galvanistic young man
You galvanistic young inhuman
You understand

Galvinized 

To be Galvinized, can be mistaken for the common job of varnishing a piece of metal. However, the true meaning of Galvinized can only be found in the ancient history books, translated by Monk Scholars in Tibet. To be Galvinized refers to someone getting "pwn3d" or being beaten by a mere man, who is seen as a god. A man who can harness this power, has the ability to slay countless poon and live an eternal life.

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?
