Misery Chain 

A “Misery Chain” describes the "endless cycle" of bad parenting.

"Fucked up parents" create "fucked up kids" who grow up to have more fucked up kids of their own, which keeps the Misery Chain going on and on into the future.

"Misery Chains" are often created by selfish or stupid people with no insight or sense of ethics: playboys, players, skanks, sluts, floozies, druggies, crack heads, dark friends, beach trolls, hill trolls, city trolls and trolls in general.

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."
