ground up 

An underground rap/hip-hop group out of Philadelphia remaking rap from the ground up. while all the rappers in the mainstream are putting on fake personas these guys have managed to keep their shit legit and real and brought back the skill that rap used to take before it hit the mainstream. They are also one of the rare rap/ hip-hop groups to have really good music by Bij Links on top of the witty rapping of Azar and Malakai instead of the lame bass heavy loops normally played as the background beat. Even if you aren't in to rap or hip-hop, these guys will still get your highest respect. "The Only Movement in Motion"

Ground swallow me up 

Ground swallow me up or GSMU is a phrase which sums up the overall desire to escape an embarrasing or awkward situation.

While the request for a time-machine might seem a more dignified approach to being swallowed up by the ground which seems a cruel fate. GSMU is more fitting to identify feelings of desperation and guilt.

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.
Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
