Dodgebullet 

Dodgebullet is the American version of Dodgeball. Instead of soft sponge balls lining the centre of the room, there are a variety of guns from pistols to shotguns. They will fire guns at the opposing team, and your aim is to shoot people using the bullets in your gun, or dodge the bullets being mercilessly fired in your direction. If it comes down to it, and the clip in your gun is empty, you use your last resort; throwing the gun itself. After that? Well, better hope you can Dodge some Bullets!

Don't confuse Dodgebullet with it's street counterpart, though. Street Dodgebullet is far more aggressive and even more risky. It's usually used to settle conflicts and debates in an unsafe and illegal enviroment. Being caught participating in Street Dodgebullet will result in arrest.

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."
