Pirating

The best and worst thing. For us, it's the BEST thing; for the people that made it, it's the WORST thing.
Pirating is when you download a game, movie, music, porn, etc. for free (illegally) and basically is claimed to be "stealing". But if you actually robbed a DVD out of a store, it ain't there anymore because it's with you. But if you pirated a DVD, it's still gonna be there AND on your computer.

For me, pirating is the best thing if you are:
1) Too lazy to get a part-time job as a teen
2) Broke as hell
3) Never in a mood to buy a movie

Mordecai: Dude, why are you pirating that movie? It just came out.
Rigby: Because, why buy it, if you can get for FREEEEE?

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."
