Downgrade Dude 

The Guy that your Ex GF ends up with, that helps you fully understand your true value, and instantly validates what you already knew.... that you were always way too good for her.

You don’t dislike this guy, you love him from the second you see his completely absent, zero style....and his creepy, weathered, Opie like features. 90% of his wardrobe comes from either Bass Pro Shop or Cabelas. He dresses like he is, a Junior in high school, yet plays on a way too old man, weekend warrior, softball or OTL (on to losers) league.

His passion and fire in life....is beer, beach, beer, and bro’s. He might combine 2 of them and do something as riveting and spicy as.......Bass Fishing.

Also know as a Downgrade Bro, he has a bad flat bill surf hat, and way too worn, surf tank top, for every occasion. He sleeps in a hat, has sex in a hat, and showers in a hat. He is always making dumb goofy faces or stupid over exaggerated gestures in every pic. This helps off set the ugly, the age and sun weathering, and the severe lack of handsomeness and endowment. (Big lifted truck/small white dick)

Chaaaa brahhh is part of his everyday vocabulary, and being a beach burnout local is his true specialty and prideful talent. Most likely listens to a lot of really bad white boy reggae....(Iration, Dirty Heads, Rome)
1. Dude surfs up at the pier brahhhh, i saw your Ex’s, Downgrade Dude surfing the polluted turd break the other day brahhh! He looked older than her dad, it’s gross !!!

2. Hey are you still dating that one girl that never smiled, was super bitchy, and just read books in her room? (Person 2)......No my man, her lease was up. I Traded in and upgraded to a sleeker, sportier, sexier model, she went with a serious Downgrade Dude.

3. Can I trade in my Lamborghini for that Peugeot over there? Or my Ferrari for that Citron?.....this would best describe my Gf with me, or her choice of a Downgrade Dude.

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."
