\fˈau̇t-ˌrāj\
noun
1. a feeling of extreme anger because of something that is perceived as bad, hurtful, or morally wrong but when viewed in a rational context is really harmless, benign and insignificant.

2. a combination of the words False and Outrage used to describe unjustified anger or resentment over a petty issue.

Examples
* Starbucks received much negative criticism towards their minimalist redesign of the 2016 holiday cups. For those in the real world, the vitriol that ensued was nothing more than foutrage over a coffee cup.
*Fox News' annual portrayal of "the war on Christmas" is spun as a threat to Christianity but in reality it is merely manufactured foutrage for the purpose of delegitimizing anything that conflicts with their conservative agenda.

Origin: American English, from combining false- (fake, not true), outrage- (anger).
First use: 21st century

Whale

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.
