"Soft" or "well done" when referred to pasta. Opposite of "al dente".

Literally, "al palato" means "to the palate". Palate is the upper part of the mouth that in combination with the upward tongue pressure can be used to chew soft foods. Most applicable to those who are missing teeth (or awaiting for them to grow for that matter).

The second definition of the word "palato" is "taste". So it can be interpreted as "to the taste" as well :)

- Can I have an order of penne ala vodka al palato to go, please?
- Yes, you can wait at the table outstairs.

A person or persons who speaks with the intent of deception, using fractional and incoherent information that on the surface seems legitimate, to achieve a less than reputable goal or to attract flattery to ones self.

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."
