Thanks Gary!

When your spouse or friend annoyingly buddyf#@ks you.

Originated on a flight from San Jose, CA to Honolulu, HI where a guy named Gary let his TSA precheck expire so got separated from his wife going through security. Somehow Gary was able to board first and as he was about to sit, an older gentleman asked if he minded changing seats across the isle. He agreed and 5 minutes later his wife arrived and saw him in the wrong seat leaving her stuck in the window with two elderly physically challenged people while Gary sat next to a fine young whine girl across the isle. She loudly proclaimed from 5 rows ahead "so what, we're not sitting together on this 5 hour flight?" He innocently replied "no honey, I switched seats." As she squeezed passed the old people to get into her window seat, she loudly sighed "Thanks, Gary...".

Gary later asked if he would like her to switch back to which she replied with an ice cold "NO!" Gary was not going to have a great Hawaiian vacation.
I raced home to enjoy the last piece of cheesecake I'd been thinking about all day and when I looked it was gone. My wife had given it to the dog. Thanks Gary!...

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?
