Compersion 

A feeling of joy when a loved one invests in and takes pleasure from another romantic or sexual relationship.

Commentary: Compersion can be thought of as the opposite of "jealousy;" it is a positive emotional reaction to a loved one's other relationship. The term was coined by the Kerista Commune. It differs from candaulism in that compersion does not specifically refer to joy regarding the sexual activity of one's partner, but refers instead to joy at the relationship with another romantic and/or sexual partner. It is analagous to the feeling of joy a parent feels when their children marry or that best friends feel for each other when they are happy in a romantic relationship.
I feel compersion when I see my husband come home happy from spending time with his girlfriend. His happiness brings me happiness

Composter Syndrome 

Composter syndrome refers to a psychological phenomenon experienced by individuals who have an intense desire to efficiently organize and manage composting processes. People with "composter syndrome" have an overwhelming compulsion to ensure that organic waste is properly recycled and transformed into nutrient-rich compost.

Individuals with composter syndrome may exhibit the following characteristics:

Obsessive attention to composting: They are constantly preoccupied with composting methods, such as the right balance of organic matter, temperature control, and moisture levels. They may spend an excessive amount of time researching composting techniques and experimenting with different composting systems.

Perfectionism in composting: People with composter syndrome strive for perfection in their composting efforts. They may feel a strong need to achieve the ideal compost composition, texture, and odor. They are often dissatisfied if their compost does not meet their self-imposed standards.

Anxiety about waste management: Individuals with composter syndrome may experience heightened anxiety or guilt when organic waste is discarded rather than being composted. They feel a deep responsibility for reducing waste and contributing to environmental sustainability.

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."
