Air Jordans 

An over priced pair of shoes made by Asian kids and sold to ghetto trash and wanna-be ghetto trash in the US and elsewhere. Typically purchased by people who can't remotely afford them and so are willing to make sacrifices (such as not feeding their kids, selling food stamps, etc.) to obtain them.

The possession of such footwear instills false feelings of superiority to those who don't have them, self worth, attractiveness and popularity. In all reality though, everyone knows the truth- you're just a moron who spent $180+ on a pair of shoes that you can't afford. The possession of these shoes has one annoying draw back- next month there is a new pair coming out that said moron has to get because the pair they just bought are now considered to be old.
Brian: Shi'thead over there just bought those new Air Jordans.

Bob: Ah, no wonder his kids are begging for food in the streets.

Brian: They're already considered to be old. A new pair is coming out in two weeks so the whole miserable process will repeat itself here shortly.

Air Jordans 

Ugly, overpriced footwear that take $10 to make in buttfuck nowhere, SE Asia and typically go for $150 to $180 in the US. Owners are typically braindead ghettomonkies and mouthbreathing skaters who are still obsessed with Micheal Jordan despite the fact that he retired over a decade ago.

They have become something of a poor man's status symbol as the only people who buy them are people who can't afford them.

Whenever new models come out, go to the nearest mall. I swear it looks like the Rodney King riots.

The terms "air" and "jordans" when used in a sentence together are used to describe a pair or several pairs of the line of Michael Jordan Signature Footwear marketed by Nike. The Jordan line-up of shoes are usually expensive and represent taste. Nike began with the Air Jordan I shoe model in 1985 and, due to its success, came up with a new design the Air Jordan II. This process is still being continued today and now we have the Air Jordan XX model, which was released in 2005 with a retail price of: $175 USD

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.

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."
