The turkey thing I know: Suddenly going off opiates often causes chills, feeling cold, leading to hairs standing up, better known as "goose flesh" but also feeling like any kind of plucked poultry I guess, so turkey. So kicking heroin could lead to feeling cold (yourself) turkey (someone else feeling your skin), and the phrase got transferred to sudden cessation of any habit.
"come on, its the 90's" is my favorite idiom.
