Dust Rat

- Noun

One of the members of the DPW (department of public works) crew that sets up Black Rock City, the location where Burning Men is held each year in the Black Rock Desert. So named because their long exposure to the Playa has both covered them in dust and reduced their social abilities to those of a rabid rat.

Although they are the biggest assholes at Burning Man they get away with behaving like drunken morons because if it wasn't for them the city wouldn't get built.

Dude, I was just trying to sit in this chair in this guys camp, and this dude in all black with a really bad suntan came up and punched me for being near his tent. What the fuck.

Oh, thats just a DPW dust rat. He's probably been out here for six months and is a little pissy about 50,000 ravers showing up in his back yard.

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.

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."
