Short and much more to-the-point form of "standard". Mostly used among highly sophisticated individuals to define and applaud acts of normality. "Standy" can be used as both a noun and an adjective. A common phrase that stems from this term is 'Standy the Boy.'
This idiom does a nice job of simplifying the following: 'Wow, I just acknowledged how typical you are being at this moment and because of this, I will give you my approval and praise!'

Bob: "Hey Jeremy, did the Leafs win today?"
Jeremy: "They almost came back in the 3rd"
Bob: "Standy"

Alex: "I just got 100% on my chemistry midterm!"
Tyler: "Standy the boy!"

Hans: "Shit I just found out my midterm is in 3 hours"
Gordon: "Whoa, are you gonna study for it?"

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."
