NoVa Curse 

People who were raised in the NoVa (Northern Virginia) area are all implanted with this terrible curse, in particular people from Loudoun County or Fairfax County, and in some cases Prince William County and other bordering cities. It’s when a person leaves NoVa for college or other reasons and always have the thought implanted that it is in their best interest to to go back due to the opportunity in the area. Despite most people hating living in NoVa and saying horrible things about the area and the people who live there, the urge will always be there for these unfortunate souls that they must return to the homeland of which they wanted to leave so bad.
Friend 1: “After college I wanna move to Texas because that’s where I’ve always wanted to live! You should come with, bro.”

Friend 2: “That sounds like a great idea but I have plans to go home because I have the NoVa curse.”

Friend 1: “I thought you said that place was the worst and the people there are assholes? Why would you want to go back”

Friend 2: “The jobs man, everything pays more there than anywhere else.”

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."
