Half Quote 

A type of quotation that is used to combine the views of an individual's meaning for meaning translation of another person's quote, or to almost accurately, yet impurely quote something. Half quotes are used when a writer has an agenda, wants to be funny, has a slightly better way of saying what the original quote said, or just forgets the word for word quote itself, but still remembers the author of the original quote and what it meant.

Half Quotes are expressed by leaving out the initial quotation marks, and are sometimes used explicitly to give the reader the initial feeling that they are still reading from the writer, but end with quotation marks and give credit to the author of the original version of the statement.

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.

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."
