The population of students who increase the need for a curve or scale in a class, specifically due to poor grade performance.

The curve fodder primarily thrive in college environments, perhaps due to the abundance of chemical resources. However, they have been observed developing in earlier stages of education.

The creature can be identified by its notorious, wide-eyed and confused response when presented with a test, and can be found at the conclusion of the class frantically scratching down random work and answers as the instructor forcibly demands it from them.

The curve fodder is your ticket to a better grade, as long as they continue to do worse than you. Respect the curve fodder, as there will be inevitably a time at which you will find yourself a part of their collective.

"I just got back from that final, I heard 75% of the class didn't finish. Curve fodder ftw."

*notices someone's single digit score, announces "A WILD CURVE FODDER APPEARED"*

"Oh man... definitely was reppin the curve fodder on that last test. The guy next to me got twice my score."

Instructor: "Okay, times up..."
Curve fodder: *writing*
Instructor: "I need the tests..."
Curve fodder: *writing faster*
Instructor: "Tests now or you all get zeros"

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."
