Ancients

A highly advanced race of humans that lived on Earth millions of years before our evolution (of their doing) that built the massive Stargate network in our galaxy before either ascending or leaving in their flying city (Atlantis).

The Ancients would say: "If you immediately know the candlelight is fire, the meal was cooked long ago."

Ancients effect

The “Ancients Effect” is a virtual mental illness for people who play this game called “Growtopia” Usually people with the “Ancients effect” have low self esteem, failing school, and fake. Usually after joining Ancients guild members start to act strangely and slowly betray those who care about them just for some Ancients super stars (Mods.) Also these players are way to serious and can’t take jokes.

John betrayed me, broke my trust and betrayed me for fake ancients members! He’s so got the “ancients effect.”

I made a joke vouching my friend in ancients but my GE yelled at me! Shes so got the “ancients effect.”

Ancients

The eight ancient civilisations - the four main ones(Ancient Alvaros, Ancient Karens, Ancient Ashleys and Ancient Nikitas), plus the four civilisations that split from the others - Ancient Jeremies(from the Ancient Alvaros), Ancient Sabians(from the Ancient Karens), Ancient Cyrils(from the Ancient Ashleys) and Ancient Steavers(from the Ancient Nikitas). Only 8 people still survive today from these civilisations, and strangely, all of them have the name that was used to refer to their original civilisation. These 8 civilisations existed long before dinosaurs - except the Ancient Karens(and therefore also the Ancient Sabians), they all came from other planets. The Ancient Karens were the first people on earth.

The Ancient Steavers, Ancient Nikitas and Ancient Karens are the best.

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."

God Shot

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
