reaction video 

Literally the stupidest thing to grace the Internet. Some attention starved asshole gets the bright idea to record his/her ugly face watching a YouTube vid or, god forbid, a 20-40 minute episode of something and expects us to sit there and watch them make facial expressions or some shit. It's literally watching a video of someone watching a video! Their face takes up 80% of the screen and the thing they're watching is usually miniature and in the corner. It's a pathetic fad that needs to die very very quickly. Newsflash people: NO ONE CARES WHAT FACIAL EXPRESSIONS YOU MAKE OR WHAT STUPID SOUNDS COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH WHEN YOU WATCH SOMETHING!
Guy 1: Hey bro, have you seen this live reaction video of the new RWBY episode?
Guy 2: Uh, no, I'd rather watch the actual episode, not some guy's ugly face.

Reaction Videos

The most pointless and dumbest type of content on the internet with exaggerated thumbnails just for views, when someone’s watching a 20-50 minute episode of a show or a 1-2 hour movie as if anyone’s gonna watch the whole thing. The creator’s ugly ass face takes up 80% of the screen and the show they’re watching is a tiny video usually in the bottom right corner, and they always pause the video every 2 seconds which obviously gets super annoying. There’s a high chance that the person watching the video wouldn’t give two fucks about what’s happening and just makes exaggerated facial expressions for more attention.
Person1: hey, dude! Have you seen that new reaction video of BFDI?

Person2: hell no, reaction videos are so pointless! I’d rather watch BFDI by myself without some random person with their ugly face taking up the whole screen!

Person1: okay.. jeez.

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.

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."
