patrolling the high seas

This is a simple and fun activity done by inebriated or high people to pass time. It involves anything from making memes to understanding deep philosophical questions in life this is used in lieu of driving or putting people in danger. Some of these activities include: crying, trying to make a full-sized pizza in your microwave, mambo italiano, turning down the volume to see better, sitting at your door waiting for the pizza man to deliver a new pizza, freestyle rapping, finding a mouse and making a new friend, trying to find that ONE cd, theorizing the flat earth, watching the wizard of oz with Pink Floyd on, crying again because you dropped your new pizza, and donating a large amount of money to a charity then thinking tater that someone stole your credit card but then end up just taking money away from kids with AIDS.

Galantir

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."
