Adaptogenre 

Adaptogenre is a word coined by welsh.wl on Discord on December 23rd, 2024.
Adaptogenre refers to someone whose gender can switch depending on who they are talking to or what the situation is. Adaptogenre is NOT gender-fluid, as it does not shift because of the ‘way’ someone is feeling. Adaptogenre is predictable once you know what gender you feel like when talking to a specific person. This also means that your pronouns, and possibly sexuality, will fluctuate.
Adaptogenre people do NOT switch their gender to be rude or to exclude anybody. It’s involuntary and therefore they cannot control what gender they identify as when talking to certain people.
The word ‘Adaptogenre’ comes from the English word ‘adapt’ and French word for gender/kind, ‘genre’.
Max: “Hey, Brie!”
Brian: “Please call me Brian, not Brie!”
Max: “Why can’t I call you Brie? I just saw someone else do it and you were fine!”
Brian: “I’m Adaptogenre, which means my gender will change based off of who I’m talking to!”

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."

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.
