To obtain extra luck by adding an extra item or 'gibbon' to what you already have.

This phrase comes from Southern China, where the nobel gibbons where seen as "the gentlemen of the forest". These gibbons were collected by wealthy lords and it was common for a lord to add an extra gibbon to his collection to bring enhanced good fortune.

In modern times it has become a phrase used simply to justify overindulging. This phrase is now used less in China and more in Malaysia, Thailand and Sumatra where gibbons still thrive in the wild.

Jonty: Do you really need to take 8 pens into your exam?

Laurence: Well you know what they say, an extra gibbon for good luck.

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."
