Portmanteau of whore and thesaurus.

A person who arbitrarily laces their writing with high-register words, usually but not necessarily with the assistane of a thesaurus, in a way which is intended to impress the reader but does not actually add to the content or depth of the text.

"Hey, does anyone know a synonym of 'blah' that sounds more intellectual?" - Thewhoraus

"Does he think I'm that stupid? Replacing words with thesaurus entries is the oldest trick in the book." - A thewhoraus's English teacher

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?
