hapology 

Hapology is a half-hearted apology.

It represents an apology which doesn't mean much. Like saying 'sorry' when you don't mean it.

For example, you've just had a round of beer with your friends and when you reach home your wife vents her fury on you! She is almost about to hit you with your baseball bat when you say sorry to avoid physical damage.

That is a hapology.
I had to tender an hapology for hitting that fat lady, but really, give me a chance and I'll do that again.

Hoopology 

The exact science of comparing the radius and circumference of a girls hoop earrings versus how open the girl is to having sex with a black man. The larger the hoops the more willing. Large hoops may warn white men that they are incapable of the kind of blatant ignorance and disrespect to get with such a woman.

The scientific formula is as follows:
If ,radius = R circumference =C
Then C(2R - 1n) = Total Whore
Basic hoopology would tell you that the girl at the grocery store, wouldn't give me the time of day because i don't look like Jay Z, my pants aren't low enough , I don't have a gold tooth, And I refuse to put a gun to her head to ask her out.

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."
