FPE is the intense enthusiasm one has after finally getting one of their definitions published on "Urban Dictionary" (which is usually preceded by numerous failing attempts and "Sorry, --- was not published" e-mails)

It is frequently followed by the melancholy of noticing that nobody has viewed the definition and the only thumbs up it's got is the one the writer gave themselves right at that moment (See: First Publication Disappointment)

A: Hey, hey, I just checked my e-mail, UD finally published my definition of !@#!#, let's see how much of the world agree with me.
A's Alter Ego: Don't have the "First Publication Excitement" just yet, no one cares.
A: Stop being such a mood-killer. I hate you!
A's Alter Ego: Alright, but you're gonna get first-publication-disappointed soon... btw, I AM YOU!

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."
