Dating Expert 

One of the many on Youtube proclaiming themselves as a "dating expert", in order to make money fleecing the desperate and lonely, mainly targeting men.

A dating coach strings viewers along with ineffective advice, deliberately. First it’s buy this program//book. Use this "magic word", send her this text, stand on this angle (yes, seriously!), wear this and "buy my course to get the dream girl you deserve" . A week or two later, it's use THIS magic word, send her THESE texts, and wear something ELSE. Buy this book. Now another few videos and a course that will "get you your dream girl". Then it's the same procedure, for months on end, with each video differing from the last in some form.

Think about this, they do countless videos on so called “advice”. Now, if this “free” advice was valid, why are they constantly a)bringing out overpriced books/courses etc, for which they sometimes shame and guilt trip people into buying? and b)making video after video for months on end with “advice” that conflicts with previous videos?

Also, the fact that a lot of dating experts have “shills”, as well as fake comments like “Oh I’m glad I found your video by accident today, best advice ever” or “Buy their course guys, it’s really good and changed my life” speaks volumes.
Dating expert: "Buy my $5k relationship mastery course, it will get you your dream girl".
Dating Expert 3 months later : "sign up for my $2k course on how to get your dream girl".

emotionally dating 

A strange place in which a friendship has developed into something more than a friendship yet nothing physical has actually happened. Discussion about this new level of relationship between the couple involved may or may not take place. It is also likely that mutual friends will notice a new intensity in their friendship. It is especially common amongst lesbians where the line between friendship and dating can become blurred.
“We were on the phone for 5 hours last night…”
“You are totally emotionally dating her!”

dating activities 

Activities, both general and specific, that guys normally wouldn't engage in with a group of their guy friends and often times even female friends with whom they have no romantic interest in. Outside the context of dating a girl, participation in dating activities often lowers a man's masculine status among his peers. Thus they are to be avoided when not dating. Dating activities are acceptable when a guy is dating because he really has no interest in the actual activity, but his interest is in the girl and he's just participating to spend some time with her.
Sample of Dating Activities:
Chick flicks (aka dating movies when datiing)
The Notebook (movie)
Dancing (when there's no girl involved unless you are a professional dancer or performer), especially so called formals.
Shopping as a hobby or recreational activity
Dining at EXPENSIVE restaurants especially ones where the food isn't that great, but you're really just paying for the atmosphere and environment.
"Walks in the park"

Yo, Man, what are you doing this weekend?

I'm going to go dancing.

With who?

Courtney.

She's a fox! Alright then, have fun with your weekend dating activity.

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?
