Space Whale Aesop

When a story has a moral or message that is either too simplistic for the complexity of the story or so strange that it doesn’t quite fit. The term is a writer slang and has nothing to do with Aesop becoming a space whale (boo!) other than it's derivation of name
Publisher: .. And what's the ending of the story?
Writer: Uhh.. the Octopus King donates it to an alien in Saturn who is very poor and owns a space pizzeria moral is "always donate to the poor".
Publisher: You made a total of 2874 wars and 78 billion universes destruct and a total of 420 trillion people die and the Octopus King to lose all his friends and family, be alienated by everyone, locked in a prison for 5 centuries, become blind and get the cold side removed from his pillow just for him to donate the treasure that could have made him the all-powerful universe ruler to an alien he has no relation with

Writer: Yessir
Publisher: that's such a Space Whale Aesop

Orca Whale

Someone who has a bigger-than-life persona, a big spender, Someone who's Over-The-Top

In Las Vegas, an Orca Whale is a gambler who consistently wagers large amounts of money. High rollers often receive lavish "comps" from casinos to entice them onto the gambling floors, such as free private jet transfers, limousine use, and use of the casinos' best suites. This is because he's a big catch.
1. Business Context / Sales teams hunt for Orca Whales, those ultra-high-net-worth clients who bring in seven-figure deals.

2. Gambling Context / The Blackjack Dealer realized he was in the presence of an Orca Whale from the way he bet—this guy was dropping $100,000 a hand without blinking

3. General Metaphor / Strippers love when the Orca Whales come in, they're the guys who just don't make it rain, they flood the place.

4. I'm moving to LA Kansas is too slow for me; I feel like an Orca Whale in a small pond surrounded by a bunch of guppies.
