When you feel intimidated and irked either due to a lack of knowledge in trendy pop cultural/meme references, or from the fact that you probably have no interest in them. Usually happens when you're out with a new group of peers, and they be saying some memey phrase or sharing some pop cultural fad and you have no idea what it is or what it means (nor do you care). Likewise, this is also very commonly experienced on the internet, most notably in the YouTube comment section.

1) Jimmy felt very pop culturally intimidated by his girlfriend once he found out that she knew more pop cultural references than him.

2) Matt joined his new group of female peers to work on a course-related project. While he didn't have trouble socializing with them, he felt extremely pop-culturally intimidated by the odd memey phrases that their peers were tossing around and giggling about. Then, they started sharing pictures of Korean guys and went on talking about their favorite kpop star. "Stop. Please...", he wished to tell them.

inTIMidated

How Toolman Taylor felt when his wife was seething mad about his having driven her antique Austin-Healey after she'd specifically forbidden him to do so.

Jill Taylor (not wanting to unleash her fury in front of the children): Boys --- OUT! (seeing her inTIMidated hubby starting to slither out the door, as well) Tim, IN!

I'm not going to be intimidated

Really guys.

Hym "I'm not going to be intimidated. I'm not changing my tactic. Fuck your kids. I'm not walking away with nothing. Out of the workforce (and out of prison) because if I'm going to prison anyway I might as well just kill one of your kids. Or as many as I can."

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.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
