Bob: Hey Jones, can I borrow your lighter
Jones: Yeah hold on, here you go

Bob uses the lighter and then places it in his pocket....

Jones: Hey, you stole my fire you thief, don't be such a pyrokleptic

Actually this word developed because a past girl friend...a she who shall not be named variety ex-girlfriend, had a really bad habit of borrowing your lighter and then putting in her purse....

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.
