Pathironic

A Portmanteau of 'Pathos' and 'Ironic'. It is meant to express the idea of a sorrowful, or mournful display of ironic conditions, that elicit no sense of joy or pleasure, but rather leave the one experiencing the feeling devoid of any sardonic or humorous elements, that are often the byproduct of ironic circumstance.
The height of pathirony and the pathironic emotional state can be described by referencing the story of Lucifer, originally Helel, whom was named "light-bringer". The covering cherub of God, the most beautiful of created beings. He promised Eve enlightenment, but only brought her darkness. An angel of light whom turned to the darkness, and brought with him suffering everywhere he went, an adversary in whom we find no comfort or light; only the darkness. Even those whom he leads astray with his enlightenment, end up in the outer darkness, isolated from God. How deeply unsettling and pathironic this feeling is.

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."
