RIP Headphone Users

When people upload videos that are unnecessarily and surprisingly loud, even at normal volume, giving the impression that the loudness killed people who use headphones due to their proximity to the ears.

YouTube video: "Barney sings I love you"
Audio (volume X9999): "I LOVE YOU YOU LOVE ME WE'RE A HAPPY FAMILY!"

iPod headphones

the headphones created by Apple, they are the biggest pain in the ass because they will tangle up even if you are not using your ipod.

Don't ever turn your back on your ipod headphones because they will tie themselves into a friggin' knot, or bundle up like a ball of yarn in Grandma's house.

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."
