e-lifting 

A technique for getting stuff for free online. To e-lift, start by picking out a company that sells products with a wide range of prices. Then, buy one of their cheapest products. When the product arrives, complain to a customer service rep. They will at least offer to replace the product at no additional charge. Most of the time, they will send you a new product AND refund the original purchase. After all, they don't want their seller rating dragged down over one of their cheapest products. Once in a while they will refund the purchase, send you a new product, and let you keep the original supposedly messed up product.

Warnings: Usually works, but doesn't work every time, so don't use it for anything that you wouldn't probably have bought anyway.
A man goes e-lifting some new sunglasses. He finds a company that sells $50 boots and a 3pack of sunglasses for $6.99. Knowing a customer service rep won't jam him up over a set of sunglasses for $2 each when they also sell boots for $50, he orders 2 sets glasses. When they arrive, he complains to a customer service rep that . Not wanting to have their rating lowered over their cheapest product, they offer to send him 2 new sets for free, refund the original order, and let him keep the "defective" products.

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

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.
