Similar to Ebola, it's a crippling disease contracted from the stupid. Suffers will start to bleed from orifices until the brain is starved of oxygen for long enough it causes permanent brain damage. The suffer then spread the condition onto other uses creating an ever increasing circle of morons.

Contracting the disease can be as simple as being forced to sit within hearing distance of those already stupid enough that they are unaware of their own stupidity and blather on in incoherent ranting without the ability to shut their mouth and listen

I swear if this guy doesn't shut up I'm going to end up catching dumbola and being as retarded as he is.

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."
