Built in 1930, it stands in New York City as one of the most beautiful skyscrapers. Construction started in 1926 and ended in 1930. When the sunburst at the top was finished, it stood at 932 feet. It claimed the title as the tallest building in the world , but not the tallest thing made by mankind. The architect, William Van Allen secretly built a 114 ft spire inside the building. When the building was done, a crane hoisted the spire through the building in 90 minutes. Once the spire was in place, it stood at an astonishing 1,046 ft. Not only was it the first structure to rise to 1000 ft, but it was also the first building that stood taller than Tour Eiffel (Eiffel Tower).

To this day the Chrysler Building is still one of the attractions in New York City, and is a key building in the Manhattan skyline.

character building experience

Any personal happening that is so absolutely awful, embarrassing, or painful that, in order to make one feel better about it, its very existence must be given some sort of arbitrary purpose, such as "building character."

My home is at least five miles away and I have no car, no money, and no pants. Now, to get there. This'll be a character building experience.

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."
