Slatering the upper deck

This technique is for the most skilled of slaterer's. One must be nimble and quick in order to accomplish this feat. It involves combining the classics "slatering" and the "upper decker." You sit on the top of the toilet in the AC slater position (from saved by the bell) and take a hot steamy dump in the upper deck.

Jorge: Hey man, what's wrong. Why is your face all bruised on your left side?

Carlos: Shit man, I was slatering the upper deck on your can and I fell off.

Jorge: What the hell does that mean man. What's that brown shit on your shirt and pants.

Carlos: Shit.

Jorge: You are f'd man. Why do I hang out with you.

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?
