A "kiwi shampoo" / "kiwi shampoos" is cop-slang for kicking a criminals' head in. Police have to wear shine-able shoes as part of their uniforms, and Kiwi is a popular brand of shoe polish, as well as being a popular scent for hair products . It was made more prominent by the TNT drama "Southland" using the term on several occasions.

The perp hit officer Valazquez in the head with the beer bottle he threw, so he decided to give him a good old Kiwi Shampoo before shoving him in the back of the patrol car.

Kiwi pass

Kiwis (New Zealanders) are internationally renowned for smoking joints down to the cardboard filter.
A "Kiwi pass" is when the roach is passed on to the next person and results in them burning their fingers and mouths if they try to inhale since there's nothing left.
Brought about because Kiwis smoke 100% pure joints and people from other countries mix their's with tobacco. Thus the very end of joints in NZ are still good but overseas they are less than good.

"What the hell are you passing that to me for, I dont want no kiwi pass!"

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."
