When you're in class, just sitting down going about your business, and all of a sudden, you hear another student's cellphone go off. You suddenly check your phone to make sure it's on silent or vibrate, knowing that the teacher/professor has a no cellphone policy. Your phone was on the whole time! You've just been saved by the sacrifice ringtone.

Christina's cellphone: "I WHIP MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH I WHIP MY HAIR BACK AND FORTH"

LaRon: "Oh shit lemme make sure my phone off!"

Christina: "damn why I had to be the sacrifice ringtone?"

Ringtone Trauma

The severe feelings of anxiety someone develops from their alarm clock ringtone.

Often this anxiety is triggered when the person hears their alarm tone during normal day hours. Upon hearing the ringtone, the person usually feels disturbed or in need to quickly silence the phone as it brings about torturous feelings of being disturbed from a peaceful sleep.

Nathan: "What happened to your phone?"
Kelly: "My alarm clock ringtone went off during lunch by accident and I got a serious case of Ringtone Trauma so I threw it at the wall"
Nathan: "Are you ok?"

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.

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."
