Back-peddling pussy 

MMO slang. Typically what the Bow Fag does once they draw the aggro of the mobs. They run around backwards while shooting the mobs which are chasing them. Or course this in turn requires all the melee class to follow in pursuit. So it basically looks similar to a Benny Hill re-run.
The bow fag ranger just grabbed the aggro of all the mobs, so now he's a back-peddling pussy.

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."
