Why? So you can take another crack at trying to suck my dick?
Hym "Boy oh boy would I love to have a real dialogue in the context of my public notoriety with someone who knows who I am."

Guy "Get a job!"

Hym "Super helpful. I never would have thought of that without your petty, bitch-made retort. That's a great idea because that way I won't get what I want and I'll get to work until I die without getting what I want. Fantastic advice. You're a true scholar."

Get a job! 

Not great advice to yell at a homeless. Do you think they haven't thought of that? They're on the street corner and it just never occurred to them to do that?
Iam "It not that I thought that no one saw it. It's that I didn't realize I had a dedicated fan base that would actively respond everything I write. That's a bizarre thing. You see how that's bizarre right?"

Hym "Hey, you see that interview? CAN YOU FUCKING BELIEVE THAT GUY!? Apparently, everyone told him that it looked like someone other than him wrote it. Can you believe that shit!? Not going to watch the after-show though cus I don't have any fucking money because the only thing I have in life was stolen from me in front of 60 million people. So... Yeah... The reasons not to drink a bottle of gin and drive through a crowded intersection are just-a piling up over here. But how are you? How are the kids? Good?"

Iam "Why are you like this? This is why everyone hates us."

Hym "Body Dysmorphia, Dissociative disorder, Oedipus complex, and/or possibly Schizophrenia. The gang stalking doesn't help either... Isn't it wild that I proved that that shit was real!? And spun it around in my favor? I'm a goddamn genius. Good job me!"

Iam "........"

Hym "......."

Iam "......."

Hym "You're not going to do the thing?"

Iam "........"

Hym "Fine I'll do it. Good job me! 'GoOd JoB oThEr Me!' 🙏 (That's a self high 5 by the way)"

Iam "That's not what I sound like. I... Whatever. I'm going to bed."

Hym "Of course it doesn't. I can't make myself sound THAT stupid. Get a job!"

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?
