A phrase to respond to an unanswerable question. It comes from a review by Possum Reviews on the homemade movie, "The Goblin." In one scene, the goblin kills a homeowner and turns on a propane stove. It is never brought up again and has no reason, so Possum repeats it multiple times in the video.

Friend: Why did your parents make you?
You: I don't know. Why did the goblin turn on the stove?

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?
