A provincial adaption of a word where "y" or "ie" replaces the last part of the word. It is endemic to Australia and parts of the United Kingdom.
Provincial Australian language often deploys whyming to adapt to the local intelligence quotient (which is low to very low). Words are shortened to accommodate more beer.
Television becomes "telly." Hospital becomes "hossy." Football becomes "footy." Biscuit becomes "bicky." Biker becomes "bikey." Thingamajig becomes "thingy." And so on. It's an appalling yet slightly charming abuse of language.

Whyoming 

defn: A place you want to avoid like the plague.

Whyoming, a play on the spelling and name of the desolate state Wyoming, adding a "h" in a proper place, helps ask the eternal question: "Why?"

Wyoming is a cold, very windy, desolate state. It has the least amount of people per square mile for a reason. The largest city is its capital, Cheyenne, which is in the range of 60,000 people (yes, a few universities have more students than that).

In short, though it has a few beautiful areas, it's known to urban and city people as a place to avoid like the plague. Why go to Wyoming when Colorado is nearby?
"I don't wanna' go to that lame frat party--that's Whyoming!"

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.
