What's that weird stain on your satin pillow?

Oh, yeah. Sally and I went and saw X last night...it went well. So, yeah.

So yeah ... that's just some RomCom Filth I'm laying on?

Yeah.

romcom job

Jobs with a whimsical quality and tailor made for romantic comedies. There’s a reason why plumbers are found in pornos …they don’t really fit the brief for romcoms, despite being a respectable career choice in our dire economic times. Examples of romcom jobs are:

Greeting card writer (500 Days of Summer)
Bookshop Owner (You’ve Got Mail)
Apartment dresser (Leap Year)
Playwright (Something’s Gotta Give)
Ballet dancer (Saving Face — queer romcom with Joan Chen from Twin Peaks)
Wedding dress designer (The Parent Trap)
Aquarium veterinarian (50 First Dates)
eBay store owner (40 Year Old Virgin — shoutout to the hottest romcom girl of them all, Catherine Keener)
Film director (Pipe Dream — the guy is actually plumber but pretends to be a director to improve his dating life)

The guy I went out on a date with last week has a romcom job: he’s a celebrity ghostwriter

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."
