curlfishing

The act of wearing non-natural curls, including wigs, weave, extensions or perms, and pretending the curls are natural.

The term was first coined by British hair brand FYC when an advertising post featuring a customer was accused of being fake and deceptive because of the customer’s real curls. The brand called out the accuser, stating that they were not curlfishing and all images featured real users of the products and real curls.
“There’s no way those curls are natural, she’s curlfishing”

“Prove that woman is displaying her real hair. This advert deceptive. It’s curlfishing”

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.
