Besides da classic "supposedly for giving schoolchildren practice/confidence in public speaking" action (but which actually scares da crap outta many kids and/or causes lower-income students to feel jealous of da more-affluent ones who have nicer/fancier possessions to proudly display), this expression also refers to either of two "displaying da merchandise" actions:
(1) Where Person A lets Person B view one or more of Person A's intimate body-parts --- with da understanding dat said reveal is supposed to be kept confidential, of course --- but then either Person A or Person B goes and blabs about said private-area exposure to one or more other people, causing humiliation and/or repercussions to one or both "Persons", or
(2) Where Person A lets Person B view one or more of Person A's intimate body-parts in exchange for Person B's verbally revealing to Person A one or more secrets dat he would otherwise not divulge.

One good way to get a normally-modest chick to let you see her boobs/butt is to offer to help her with her homework or some other task dat she does not possess da knowledge and/or mental/emotional capabilities to tackle on her own, but insist dat she agree to a "show and tell" contract --- i.e., a deal wherein she agrees to let you view her "goods" in exchange for your putting in da time/effort to tell her da vital bits of info dat she needs in order to complete said drudgerous task.

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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?
