Joel Barlow High School 

The fucking worst place in the world. Nobody likes anyone. Nothing happens. 1 or 2 fights per year. 10 non white kids per grade if you're lucky. Shitty ass walls that looks like someone painted it all pink, then shit and pissed on the whole thing.
Me: "I go to Joel Barlow High School."
Rest of Fairfield County: "Poor ass bitch."

Joel Barlow High School 

Situated in Redding, CT this high school is made up of the Easton and Redding kids, because both towns are basically too small to have their own place. School spirit is at an all time low, and doesn’t seem like we’ll start yelling ‘Barlow’s got the Power’ with our disliked cheerleaders until our athletics shape up and everyone come down from their high or sobers up a little bit. If you ask a Barlow kid what they listen to, most likely they will either say Dave Matthews Band or, if they think they are scene, From First to Last or Bleed the Dream.

The school has this wonderful tendency to be really weird. The walls for instance, are pink splattered paint that is sometimes known as “pig vomit paint”. Also, if you are looking for the record holder of pulled fire alarms in one year, you may want to check out Barlow. Those who were in the school in 2004-2005 will remember the ‘mercury spill’ when the whole school was denied lunch because someone spilt a little mercury on the floor near the cafeteria.
Joel Barlow High School kid 1: oh my god, I'm so high right now, the stuff on the walls are moving!

Kid 2: dude, I'm not high, but I think they might be....

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.

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
