whale in the bay

A Whale in the Bay is a covert term to advise of the unwelcomed presence of an undercover investigator amongst the ranks. The term has evolved as a means of communicating that there are others present, making it difficult to speak freely during a telephone conversation.
It was identified as a police term during an Australian royal commission into police corruption in the 1980s where corrupt officers would warn others of an internal investigation by mentioning that there was "a whale in the bay" - a normally noteable event on the Australian east coast.

You're a hopeless whale watcher!

Alpha Whale

Someone who once thought they were the alpha male, top dog, and cream of the crop but has put on quite a bit of weight and is no longer worthy of the title.
He was once the alpha male of the group now he's just an alpha whale.

whale-style

The ULTIMATE expression. Can be used to describe any event or action or a way something is done. The use of "whale-style" makes any statement sound AMAZING.
"Come on Kathryn! Whale-style it!"

"I'm not just going to eat this sandwich, I'm gonna whale-style it!"

whale-stabber

In all fairness this term was coined from the adult swim TV show "The Oblongs" (at least this is where I first heard the word used).

It is used to describe an eskimo or somebody from alaska possibly in a derogatory way.
Guy 1: Hey guy 2 how's it going
Guy 2: Terrible. A bunch of fucking whale-stabbers moved in next door.
Guy 1: Well it beat having a bunch of spear chuckers for neighbors.
