A largely pejorative term for an eccentric or even slightly idiosyncratic individual with a penchant for mischievous and perhaps reckless behavior.

Derived from the curious appearance of Former Toronto Blue Jay and Seattle Mariner John Olerud, who famously wore a batting helmet in the field as a first baseman.

"Olerud, don't you realize that if you put canned goods in the microwave that bad stuff can happen?"

Olerud Offense

An Olerud Offense applies stricto sensu to football but it can be broadened to include a variety of other sports, both real and virtual.

The Olerud Offense was derived from the madcap antics of the baseball great John Olerud. Just as the adjective Olerud implies a zany unpredictability, the Olerud Offense is characterized by its maverick formations and headlong playcalling. The term was coined in the early 1990s during one of Houston's famous living room Tecmo tournaments.

One prominent feature of the Olerud Offense is the flea-flicker; another is the so-called 100-yard-pass play, made most famous in Super Tecmo by QB Eagles.

This guy runs an Olerud Offense so watch the fudge out!!

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.

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."
