clarifly 

Verb: To elucidate while dressed in stylish attire
Silky Johnson called the slave owner a honky which confused the slaves. He felt he must clarifly by saying, "Honky is a racial epithet used for white people. It was made popular by George Jefferson in the 1970's. You see he and his wife Weezy had a dry cleaning business so they moved on up to the east side, to a deluxe apartment in the sky. They finally got a piece of the pie. Convoluted story I'll admit. But the point is this, that in the future, all black people will be free!".

clarifying proposal 

'clarifying proposal' or 'defining resolution' or 'defining proposal' is a summary that is also used to reveal an underlying problem to an obfuscating author such as a conman without giving away awareness (by the victim) of the conman's scam.
I am an agent with a buyer who wishes to buy your property but we wish to carry out due diligence first so we offer a deposit whilst conveyancers are engaged. The con is that the agent takes a commission from the conveyancer then the purchase falls through. The seller does not wish to reveal their suspicion of the con so offers a 'clarifying proposal' being: instead of a deposit let the buyer pay all the seller's conveyancer fees.
To clarify is to completely shut down everything someone just said.
Person one- " I like snow cones, it's like flavored snow"
Person two- " Just to clarify, it's actually chopped ice, not snow.. Therefore it should be called ice cones

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?
