wet cowboy handkerchief 

A sex act named after a life hack cowboys used in the Old West. Cowboys would moisten their handkerchiefs with water, and then tie them around their necks. The moisture would evaporate in the arid clmate, leaving the cowboys cool as a cucumber. The sex act involves one partner urinating on the other, and then cleaning up the mess with a Kleenex. The giving partner then cleans up the mess, plugging the recieving partner's anus with the Kleenex. The Kleenex is left there for "x" amount of days, until the giving partner believes he or she is ready. The giver then removes the Kleenex, leaving the recieving partner's anus a fermented, ammonia-like smell and flavor.

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."
