Paperclipping 

When your crush ignores you, but still occasionally texts you to don't forget about him/her/them.

The term comes from Clippy, Microsoft's most hated virtual assistant.
- I thought he's not interested in me, but he texted me last night and left me on read, again. He has been doing this for a month now and I don't know what should I do with his mixed signals.
- Just dump him, he's totally paperclipping you.

paperclipping 

The process of using a paperclip to reset a modem or router to its factory default settings. This process involves unfolding the paperclip and sticking the end of it into a small hole in the router designed specifically for this purpose.
After forgetting my modem's password I had to call my ISP and they said I had to paperclip it. After paperclipping it I had to reconfigure it from scratch.

Paperclipping 

When one partner, usually the man or dominant in the relationship, is laying on his back... the other partner laying on his chest as a pillow, one arm over, one leg over.

Not to be confused with spooning - the reverse paperclip is when partner one still lays on his back - and partner two is in the aforementioned position only facing outwards.

Founded by the A.S.M (anti spooning movement)
Guy 1: "Did you snuggle after sex?"

Guy 2: "Yeah dude - we paperclipped it up - fuck spooning, I mean i spooned her early in the night BEFORE we fucked..."

Guy 1: "hahaha totally - everyone hates spooning, you just use it to get laid right?!?"

Guy 2: "Exactly... and after I made her say the safety word we drifted off paperclipping"

Guy 1: "awesome - real men don't spoon after sex - spooning is for pussies."

Powerclipping 

The act of cc'ing more senior people to an email thread in order to gain some form of recognition for your efforts. Desperate corporate types clambering up the greasy pole will exhibit this behaviour.

The powerclipper is usually not self-aware enough to use this in an ironic reflexive form, i.e. "I powerclipped senior management so they know how great I am"

Antonym: Powershedding - The emailer sees no need to cc'd everyone on the list so emails directly to the appropriate party. The emailer will usually exhibit high self-esteem.
Noun: "He's a powerclipper"
Verb: "Geez, he powerclipped me in on this banality; it's way below my pay grade"

Ann: "Why did I get this email from Bill?"
Colin: "He's powerclipping his way to the top."

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?
