Armpit of California 

Bakersfield, CA (B-Town) at the southern end of the San Joaquin Valley where oil refineries pollute the air, and there are more cows than people. The dry dessert air constantly filled with dust and pesticides from the massive amount of agriculture.
While Los Angeles's air is polluted so badly there is acid rain on occasion at least there is a cool ocean breeze unlike in the armpit of California just north of the grape vine.

Armpit of california 

Idk if u realize but Bakersfield is in the valley. The wind pushes all the pollution to us and traps it in the valley, so it's basically most of California's pollution because the winds can bring it all the way from San Francisco.
You guys are the stupid armpit of California.

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?
