Exam Syndrome 

An abnormality in behavior that a person shows while studying for the exams, which makes him deviate from the immediate goal of studying for the next subject to something completely useless and total crap.
In some rare cases, the affected person also starts thinking about his future, still ignoring the fact that studying is a little step in building it.
Also, sometimes, some affected individuals like to stare at the wall or just sleep.

Last Exam Syndrome 

A worldwide student condition that makes one completely unmotivated and unproductive in the time leading up to and during one's final exam. Procrastination reaches unchartable levels and everything except actual studying is done. During the exam writing tends to be rambling and illegible and 95% of cases leave their exam early, even if what they have written isn't up to usual standard/they've written too little for good marks.
"Dude! Your exam starts in three hours; why are you making an elephant out of old macaroni?"

Post-exam Analysis Stress Syndrome (PASS) 

One of the most unproductive form of exam stress. PASS usually occurs the day following an important exam and involves the sufferer analysing and stressing about said exam and all the things they think they got wrong or right, what they could have done better and how well they think they did.
It is usually accompanied by insomnia which usually leads to poor performance in exams that may follow, thus perpetuating further post and pre-exam stress.
person1- oh man, I'm gonna be up all night thinking about that physics paper we just wrote.

person2- yeah, I definitely got question 9.3.1 all wrong...

person1- damn it, Post-exam Analysis Stress Syndrome (PASS) is so pointless!

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.

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."
