Dunning-Kruger’s Kill-Joy

A guy who, due to ego or low intelligence, refuses to acknowledge that he didn’t get understand the joke, so instead resorts to insisting that there was never a joke in the first place. He will often criticize the intelligence of the person telling the joke on the basis that they were serious.

“Make sure not to use satire around that guy! He’s Dunning-Kruger’s Kill-Joy, he’ll trap you in an argument you never actually made!”

Let's Dance to Joy Division

Song that apparently upset already depressed Joy Division fans. Kinda pathetic if you look at SongMeanings and similar sites and see their reaction to an indie band mentioning their brilliant band in a song. Oh, the song's also by The Wombats.

Teenager: Hey, did you hear that song Let's Dance to Joy Division? I love it!
JD fan: Fuck you, you don't have the right to listen to that kinda stuff... you little teenybopper.

joy-spreader

An individual met on trains with an effortless disregard for all conventions of society and so one who refuses to be brought down.
Will often engage in conversation with total strangers and with you, and their words may be sad, moving, joyous, outrageous and intelligent but impossible to disagree with. You leave the encounter feeling as though you may have met Jesus.

Their actions may sometimes border on insane, but with no active effort they therefore spread joy.

joy-spreader: (Shouted on leaving the train) Hotdogs and sunshine and reggae music and happiness!

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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?
