Fear of not receiving a letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry on one's eleventh birthday.

A study recently showed that many children believe in the magical world of Harry Potter created by J.K. Rowling and are, in fact, fearful of it not existing. This fear often manifests itself in the form of an act described in the book which would be the first contact with the magical world in question - receiving a letter from Hogwarts. The build up to the eleventh birthday can be a time of anxiety for children suffering from this phobia.

-'Have you noticed James acting oddly recently?'
-'Yes, I think he may be suffering from Benkinersophobia.'

berline

Berline is a pretty girl who has an attitude when you try her and she will probably slap the fuck out of you when needed but she is very nice in the heart easy to talk to. She will stand up for you no matter who and what it is. She will ride for you the longest as possible even for a lifetime. She has a wide heart and opens to anyone but Dont break it because she would hurt you and go off on you. But it doesn't really matter to her because its your choice to be in her hear or not.

That girl berline is a keeper. Watch out she's a pain in the ass.

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
