The phrase is used in reference to a person who has a vegetable shaped head, deemed displeasing to the eye. It is also used for those seen to have a bad hair style.

It derives from the use of the term “swede” – slang for head – and, as swede is one of the main ingredients of the traditional welsh broth called Cawl, the phrase became a popular put-down.

It is believed to originate from the Cefncaeau area of Llanelli in South Wales, and was commonly used among the town's young population as a derogatory term during the 1990s.

Jesus, she is ugly! Look at the swede on her... that’s a fair head for cawl!

Oh my God, look at this munter over by 'yer - fair head for cawl.

Cawley

Is a name of a guy that looks like two handsome actors in one, but with a 10inch soft. He will always put a smile on your face, sometimes cant control his mouth or actions but that's what makes him who he is. He will always be there for you unless he had a massage scheduled. People blessed with this name will have intercourse with miss america, save a cat out of a tree, naked backflip into a pool, take a fall for a punishment, be a true friend, bicycle kick Chuck Norris,and then throw a 200mph baseball through the earth all while eating a sandwich he got a girl to make him, Easy Monday. He is so nice and giving when he sees a homeless person holding a sign begging for money he will have sex with them just so they know that someone cares.

Hey look there is Cawley with another homeless man, what a nice guy.

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."
