Reverse Favor

When someone you know or don't know sells or gives you something as a "Favor" that is framed by them as a good deal being low priced or just free, but it's actually worthless to them or it is something that is a headache they must pay to rid themselves of it and by you taking it for free or buying it you are doing them the favor therefore making it a "Reverse Favor".
My buddy sold me his rare 1990s Japanese car for cheap but turns out it's got 298,000 miles on it, a cracked block, & a shot transmission from drifting. I guess it might've been a Reverse Favor because the scrap yard is charging me to get rid of it...

Reverse Party Favor 

The horrifically stupid act of ASSUMING that the white powder on the floor is spilled COCAINE from the night before; then tenaciously SNORTING it off the ground with a 3" straw the next morning; an idiotic effort to beckon the energy to clean up an abandoned party mess left at your house; Only to quickly and painfully realize it was NOT COCAINE, but was DEFINITELY old, dried, dog urine soaked potpourri scented CARPET REFRESHING POWDER from who knows when.
So, I only ever got duped by a Reverse Party Favor ONCE, and will never, EVER, snort ANYTHING off of the ground without tasting it first.

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.

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."
