FOOW, Face Out Of Window, (pronounced fooo), an acronym used to notify someone in chat/IM session you are still there but will be temporarily looking at another window on your computer.

I made this up to use instead of Away from Keyboard AFK because I'm not away from my computer and will return to the chat session shortly.
I'm discussing an article with someone in chat, and I want to give them the web link, so I type:

"hold on, getting link, foow"

and they understand I'm away from the chat window and will be back in a minute.

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."
