Asatru

The religion of the Old-Norse. Asatru is the name for the current reformation of the old religion that is primarily found in Scandinavia, Iceland, Greenland, Germany and the United States.
Followers of the Asatru faith tend to be of Norse descent.

Though it is a Neo-Pagan Religion, Followers of Asatru typically don't associate themselves the same as wiccans.
Many of the same gods found in Asatru are also found in Celtic Reconstruction Religions such as Druidry, as well as many holidays and religious customs (due to the fact that the two groups intermingled so much)

The family held a ritual to honor Odin in their yard, which made many of their neighbors curious and nervous.
When asked what religion the family was, they answered " Asatru "

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...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.

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."
