empty sleepiness 

A tired feeling that cannot easily be satisfied by sleep. You may be able to fall asleep, but since it is not caused by physical exhaustion, it may be harder. It is a main symptom of a Computer Hangover and is not a pleasant feeling. Though it is not pleasant, the feeling is somewhat addictive for a lazy teen with an empty Saturday to fill. It is also a sign that you are becoming a couch potato.

CAUSES:
-- Computer Hangover
-- couch-potato-ness
-- a nap (grogginess after waking)
-- extreme mental exercise
-- above symptoms accompanied by a dull headache

CURES:
-- a cool shower
-- a glass of cold water IMMEDIATELY AFTER to cure as soon as possible.
-- another nap (WARNING: temporary! Your exhaustion will get worse afterwards.)
-- time, time time!
-- calling a friend to chat
-- reengaging your mind with something required like homework (WARNING: no media should be involved, or your empty sleepiness will not be helped at all!)
-- Going outside for a quick run/walk
-- Washing your face with a cold cloth
-- Changing your clothes, brushing your hair, doing new makeup, "freshening up"
FIRST EXAMPLE:

A: Dude, you OK? You look terrible....
B: Yeah.... Ugh, I'm so tired.
A: Tired?! You just slept!
B: I'm just starting to wake up. I've got such a dull headache.
A: Homeboy, that's what we call "empty sleepiness." Here, lemme get you some water.

SECOND EXAMPLE:

A: I'm so tired...
B: Why? You've done absolutely NOTHING useful this entire afternoon.
A: Yeah, but videogames are exhausting.
B: No, not really.
A: Mentally, not physically, you dufus.
B: Eh, whatever. You've paid for your sins in the form of a computer hangover....

A: Water? Please?
B: (reluctantly) I guess so...

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?
