Gamzee Makara is one of the 12 trolls in the Homestuck webcomic. Gamzee is titled the 'Bard of Rage', and is a purple-blooded troll (which set him very high in the troll's caste-like society). Gamzee's associated zodiac sign is Capricorn and he has become a favorite among fans.

Because of a bad upbringing, Gamzee is always stoned on sopor slime, a substance not supposed to be eaten because it supposedly affects the troll's minds, and is a sort of juggalo/ clown cultist. While high, he is very mellow, goofy and friendly and nothing angers him.
SPOILERS: Further along during the story, he runs out of sopor slime and suffers an extreme faith crisis along with finding his crush dead. Now sober and completely insane, he believes it is his highborn duty to kill the other trolls, strangling Equius Zahhak and beating Nepeta Leijon to death with juggling clubs. He only stops his murderous attacks because of a major shooshpap from his friend Karkat.

Gamzee was named after forumite Gammy, as well as "Gamze", which is a Turkish word meaning "dimple" or "coquettish look". Makara is the Sanskrit counterpart to the Capricorn sign, as well as referring to a mythological Hindu creature with the hind legs of an aquatic creature and the forelegs of a terrestrial one (much like the Greek Capricorn).

In text, Gamzee speaks with aLtErNaTiNg CaPs. When sober, he randomly switches between all lowercase and ALL UPPERCASE LETTERS AND STILL HONKS from time to time.

Sober: WELCOME TO THE DARK CARNIVAL, BROTHER. honk. HONK. honk. HOOOOOOOOOOONK.

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."
