The Congressional Calculator is much like Obamanomics, it's calculations that don't add up in the real world yet people buy into strictly based on the source of the info. The Congressional Calculator is used anytime things don't quite add up but fits the agenda du jour. It's like adding 2+2 and getting minus 4 billion.

"Great news! Government Healthcare just passed which should decrease the deficit by about 2 Trillion!!" "ah, I love the Congressional Calculator, I'm gonna go buy a new 'vette."

alculate

The act of figuring out the way to get the most drunk for the least amount of money.

Mike - Guys, I picked up some Busch Light for the power hour instead of the Zima that Neal requested. I’ve never finished a power hour before, but I have alculated before and this is the cheapest, most effective way to do it.

Neal - I prefer the taste of Zima, but you're correct, this does alculate better.

alculate

To figure out the dollar value per unit of alcoholic beverage. Examples of one unit of alcoholic beverage include: 1.5 oz of 80 proof vodka, 12 oz of beer with 5% alcohol, 5 oz of wine with 12% alcohol.

For the same price, a 750ml bottle of 100 proof SoCo alculates much better than a 750ml bottle of 80 proof SoCo.

SoCo and lime shots alculate horribly as they are 50% SoCo, 50% non-alcoholic lime juice. For better alculation, you are better off asking for the shot of 100% SoCo and squeezing a lime into it.

Mike is a genious for coming up with the term alculate.

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.

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."
