Our Lady of Mercy Academy 

Otherwise known as "OLMA" or "Mercy", this is a quaint little Catholic school located in scenic Syosset, Long Island. This all-girls school has been producing some of the world's most fabulous people since 1928. Many people like to make fun of the Mercy girls for going to such a school, but that's just because everyone else is jealous, and wishes they could be a Mercy girl.

Mercy is open practically 24 hours a day, especially since most of the girls there are so desperately involved in school that they contemplate setting up makeshift beds in the locker rooms.

The exterior lures prospective students in with its extensive campus and lovely architecture. The interior dates back to 1970 and is in desperate need of a makeover.
I'm never home anymore, and when I am, I'm always doing homework. Obviously, I go to Our Lady of Mercy Academy!

Our Lady of Mercy

The all girls school that everyone passes by but doesnt realize is a school cause it looks like an insane asylum. Everyone thinks of them as whores because they all pretty much have passed 3rd base. The "brother" school McQuaid is where all the girls look for guys. Mercy girls get mad though when girls from public schools take a guy from there because they have a co-ed school. All of the girls roll their skirts and aren't called sluts because girls who don't roll are weird asf. The girls wear expensive shoes and go shopping a lot even though during the school year they wear uniforms. Ramen is a big part of the culture there. Everybody is "friends" with everyone, and talks mad shit bout eachother but it's okay cause everybody's friends. They wear their hair in messy buns because why try with no boys. Once in a while you walk into the bathrooms and hear some lesbians. Everybody acts really religious but you can tell by all the partying and boys that they aren't. The girls in the Brighton NY district uses mad fake tanning shit. Especially during the winter everyone looks orange and streaky. The cheer girls are the most chill girls you'll meet, they don't really give two shits. The track girls though are goody two shoes. Everyone gets a lot of homework and is failing spanish and chem. Also none of the homework gets done but it's okay cause it's Mercy. They only have 150 days of school and summer starts in May so the 10k/year tuition is totally worth it.

Our Lady of Mercy Academy 

Our lady of mercy academy is the only school in the south jersey region that is all girls. The school is characterized by their hypocrisy and their overwhelming need to play TGIF at nearly every event possible. They make poor attempts to educate their students who are already hardly in school to begin with. The faculty is most welcoming but sometimes one must wonder how some of them got teaching degrees in the first place. There’s an over abundance of photos taken on a day to day basis and they will undoubtedly be posted and featuring the worst angles of you imaginable. They’re supposedly linked with St. Augustine prep which can be noticed as the only all boys school on the south jersey region. OLMA travels over there for different sporting events in attempts to “find a prep guy” but will almost always fail. The school can be recognized for their dedication to sports, they have brought home many trophies and titles and have brought their little school up on the divisions. Their cookies are unmatched, and turkey bowl has been by far one of the most popular meals. They go through teachers like an OLMA girl goes through boyfriends. Not a bad school, but not a great one either.
"Oh look, it's the OLMA girls"
"Who?"

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."
