The act of noming in your sleep, or in an altered state of consciousness caused by irregular sleep patterns. For it to be classified as true Nomsomnia, the subject must have little to no recollection of eating while in this altered state of consciousness. Noming refers to the eating of foods normally eaten as snacks or are on the go. Examples include chips, beef jerky, pickles, goldfish, and nutrition bars. Nomsomnia is common in sleep deprived teenagers forgetting to eat fourth meal or elevensies.

Jimmy's dad saw Johnny get up in the middle of the night just to eat half a bag of beef jerky. When Jimmy's dad confronted Johnny about this the next morning, Johnny had no recollection of it except he dreamed that he was eating jerky at a park with his girlfriend. Jimmy told his dad that he thinks Johnny has Nomsomnia.

nasomnia

When you feel spiritually connected to something as simple as a picture to a piece of music, nasomnia is the age your soul came from.

Look at a picture of Christmas and listen to Christmas music, if you instantly feel connected with your soul your nasomnia is ‘Christmas-age’.

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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?
