Traincore 

A genre of music made to imitate the sound of a train going "chugga-chugga-CHOO-CHOO!" Because trains are pretty heavy machines, you know this is some pretty heavy music. The art of traincore has been passed done from metal band to metal band for roughly ten years, making it an ancient and prestigious tradition. Traincore is not for the weak of heart, and playing it requires mastering precise guitar techniques. Palm muting is done to imitate the sound of the train going "chugga-chugga" down the tracks, and the whistle of the whistle blowing and going "choo-choo" is imitated using pinch harmonics or slides. The last important trait of traincore is the breakdown where the song slows down. This represents the train grinding to a halt so it can refuel. During the late 2000s and early 2010s traincore was the most popular form of metal, but it has since fallen out of favor and now duckcore, which attempts to recreate the sound of the most majestic waterfowl quacking, is more popular.
Did you hear the latest album by Fire The Prostitute? It was so brutal, they're my favorite traincore band.

Jerry Trainor 

An underrated actor. He's had bit parts on television shows like Malcolm in the Middle and Drake and Josh, and in movies such as Donnie Darko.

He currently is underutilized on iCarly as Spenser Shay. One wonders how much better the show would be if he was the main character.
Is there anything that needs to be said about Jerry Trainor that hasn't been already?

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?
