Modern Fantasy. Also known as Urban Fantasy, Contemporary Fantasy, or Dark Fantasy. A stylized subgenre of fiction most commonly written in first person. ModFan is a steadily growing genre that perfectly melds the aspects of fantasy books, such as magic or monsters, with the modern world's cities and technology. A large number of these books have characters wielding both magic and guns. Most ModFan novels fall into two categories. 1:The magical world goes unnoticed by most humans. 2:The magic world is common knowledge (stories taking place in an alternate reality in which the cities and most other aspects of our reality are unchanged.) Examples of ModFan include books by the fallowing Authors; Ilona Andrews, Jim Butcher, Karen Chance, Kim Harrison, Patricia Briggs, Simon Green, and Rob Thurman.

mofanity 

Mormon profanity, commonly used by people from Utah and the surrounding intermountain west who are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, which strongly discourages the use of profanity.
Common mofanity terms include:
"dang" instead of "damn", as in, "Where did I put my dang car keys?"
"fetch" instead of "fuck", as in, "Oh, fetch! The dang keys are locked in the car!"
"fricken'" instead of "fucking", as in, "Who the fetch locked the dang keys in the fricken car?"
"heck" instead of "Hell", as in, "Oh my heck, honey! You locked the keys in the car "again"?" (The expression "Oh, my heck" is apparently derived from "Oh, my Hell," which is apparently derived from "Oh, my heavens," which apparently is not at all an okay thing to say.)
"shoot" instead of "shit", as in, "Oh, shoot! I just slammed my fingers in the car door and it hurts like heck!"

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.

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."
