Trooping the Colour is an ancient tradition performed by young men in the London district of Earl's Court on the second Saturday of each June. Overseen by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the young men of the area colourfully display their lemons and plums before each hour engaging in musical displays of side-walk flaccidity known as Trooping. Originally dating back to 1123BC when King Kong was on the thrown, in recent years many smaller plumbs have been used as a result of global cooling.

Ere Liz, look at that flaccid young man Trooping the Colour of his lemons and plumbs. Cor yeah Phil, they look reet juicy for me gaggin swallow hole. And just think, they date back to King Kong.

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?
