Alternating Asses 

A little known technique for fitting the max amount of people into the backseat of a car. If done properly, 4 maybe even 5 people will be able to comfortably ride in a 3 person backseat.

It consists of having the first person who gets in the back seat sitting with their ass either touching the backrest(as you would normally ride) or sitting with their ass as close to the edge of the seat(and as far from the backrest) as possible. From their, everyone alternates ass to front ass to back until you can't fit anymore people.

This is proven effective.

"It's chill we'll just sit with alternating asses and be good to go."-Guy 2

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.

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."
