The first definition is wrong, A cappella is not using any instruments but the background music is usually accompanied by beats made by the human mouth, usually one linking to the other one, like hitting the floor, then the desk, then the wall to make a beat that goes together, then it is accompanied by the actually singing, A Capella can only be accomplished by separate recording of different sounds, or a group working together

Go to youtube and check out The Temptations-My Girl-A Capella(MrVoxter)

Check this out, this is an A Capella and a really good one

a crapella

Singing out loud while listening to music with your headphones on. Whereas the singer gets the benefit of the music, those unfortunate to be standing nearby are subjected to an unaccompanied (and invariably crappy) rendition of the song.

"I wish that guy would turn his iPod off - his a crapella version of Bohemian Rhapsody is killing me"

Collegiate A Cappella

Music done by college students involving only voices and no instruments. Usually sounds stupid and worse than the original hits because the performers are drunk and care more about getting laid. There are some good groups, but mostly just a soloist sucking and the rest of the group going "doo-doo."

Kayne West: Yo Off the Beat, I'm really happy for you guys, and I'm gonna let you finish, but the original artists had better versions of the songs you covered.

Oscar Wilde: Collegiate A Cappella? Sounds like getting dildo up my ass.

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?
