Liam: Wait, what?

International taco fortnight

International taco fortnight originated around 2012 in the Monterey Bay Area of California and is an annual festive event to celebrate tacos and Mexican cuisine in general, lasting one fortnight (or longer if desired). One is encouraged, but not required, to consume tacos on a daily basis for the duration of this event. Documenting your activities relating to this event on video or otherwise is encouraged, however frowned upon by some as "yet another image of food". The exact date of this event fluctuates and typically is announced a few weeks ahead of time.

I just ate three whole cheese tacos to celebrate international taco fortnight and now I feel sick.

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."
