I am convinced that the only other definition on this page was written by the devil himself (Alex Greenwald) because there is no way that anyone could think he is that cool. Now, here is the TRUE definition of Mr. Greenwald!
Alex Greenwald (Gaywald for short) is a indie rock faggot that would do literally anything to be in the spotlight including sucking off a giraffe at a PETA rally to butt fucking Sting for his shitty band to get an opening slot on his tour.
Gaywald's hobbies include trying to be popular, copying whatever music is popular at the time, dating actresses who are more famous than him (then dumping them for the next barely-legal pussy that goes by). His theme song is "Little Girls" by Oingo Boingo.
George: "Yo, homie! Have you heard about that fuckass Alex Greenwald?"
Bobby: "No! I've never heard of him before in my life! Who the fuck is he?"
George: "Oh. he's some sleazebag fucko that likes barely legal girls, especially if they're famous"
Bobby: "You're kidding?"
George: "No joke! He just went through another one this year and now he's dating his pet mongoose"
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."
A chance happening with profound meaning, an unexpected blessing, a "sign".
Dr. Drew on Celebrity Rehab said "All of a sudden what had been just another Hollywood proposal became for him an unexpected blessing, an opportunity for growth. In drug recovery language, that's called a "God shot."
