Scrapheap Challenge

1) Popular British TV programme with 'Red Dwarf's' Kryton actor Robert Llewllyn, along with Lisa Rogers, commonly watched by ugly, overweight, aged, but somewhat esoteric and cool and geeky men. Women almost entirely not allowed, except Lisa Rogers.

2) The act of sifting through the pile of old, stained and somewhat sticky jazz-mags hidden - probably badly - from your other half/parents/housemates/cleaner in order to find the one image of substance that might, today as well as potentially up to 5 years ago, get you off.

3) To find something useful in a pile of seemingly old useless shit.
Mate, I had such a rand on last night I had to resort to a bit of 'scrapheap challenge'. Oh, the memories!

Scrapheap Challenge

Played on the days between running out of weed and next seeing your dealer, scrapheap challenge is a game where you tactfully search the areas in and around your rolling tin (or rolling table, if a connoisseur), grinder or other tools in search of materials to construct a joint or any contraption that will achieve a sufficient high.
That was my last nug, guess it’s Scrapheap Challenge for me tomorrow.

Scraptrap 

William Afton returns as an antagonist and one of four salvageable animatronics in Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator. The player may choose to throw this animatronic away or try to salvage him for parts. Salvaging this animatronic will net the player a base profit of $1000.

He has been given the moniker of Scraptrap in this iteration by outside sources to distinguish him from his other incarnations of William Afton.

Afton's appearance looks drastically different, since there is no accurate evidence of how his suit (and even corpse) changed after his time in Fazbear's Fright: The Horror Attraction as Springtrap from Five Nights at Freddy's 3. There are more torn patches in his suit and has lost his left arm up to the elbow, half his left ear, and the rest of his right ear. His corpse is now mostly skeletal and mummified that can be seen with part of his muscle layers visible through the skull, as well as five bony fingers as his right hand. No visible eyes can be seen in the eye-sockets themselves for the skull, instead having metallic-grey "eyes" (used to help the wearer see) punched in both of the eye-sockets. Fleshy veins and muscle can be seen dangling out of various limbs and inside the torso of the reanimated killer.
Scraptrap literally is just a Jimmy Neutron rip-off!

scrapapple 

Verb: to perform an indeterminate sex act of a very dirty nature (indeterminate because no one can fathom the sexy depths of its dirtiness), named so because "scrapapple" just sounds dirty, doesn't it? Scrapapple parties may involve numerous individuals, who (it is believed, since scrapapple parties are very secret) take turns scrapappling. It is a mix of the words scrabble and apple, for mysterious reasons.

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."
