This doesn't not mean to exit or leave, people who think that are inherently wrong, and usually bad at sports.
People who use the word egress, are pedantic little shits.
Egress by Urmom7262 October 22, 2022
A career field in the Air Force, the maintainers who inspect, repair, and service the ejection systems on fighters and bombers. They are the elite of the elite, knowing perfection as a way of life, with the understanding that success means life, and that failure entails death. They work harder than all other maintainers, on explosive parts that can kill them in a second, with tolerances in the thousandths of an inch, to make sure that when a pilot pulls that yellow handle, he can be sure that he's going to get out of that aircraft. Because when all else fails, Egress prevails.
"That guy is a sexy bitch. And he can out-drink everyone else in the bar. AND he is infinitely smarter than all those crew chiefs. Who is he?"
"Oh, that's SSgt Taronji. He's an Egress troop."
"Egress, eh? That explains everything."

Noun. Edress in BBS days refered to the specific memory location within a computer system where electronic messages could be left for a person or organization for later retrieval.
The name e-mail later won out over edress (maybe it sounded too much like clothing?).
Edress is still used today to refer to a name or a sequence of characters that designates an e-mail account.
I first coined this word back in the 1980's BBS (Bulletin Board System) days of computer science (Someone else may have thought of it before me, but I thought of it on my own as well).
If you give me your edress I will forward the e-mail to you.

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?
