so•cha |sō ch ä|

noun

• a plant, typically found growing around human-made structures such as buildings, walls, pathways, drains, gardens and farms.
• a plant out of place.
• a synonym for “weed” with a positive connotation.

Usage of socha

A socha is a plant considered to be undesirable in a particular environment. Just like a “weed”, a socha grows where it is not wanted and often in competition with cultivated plants. While the term "weed" generally has a negative connotation, many plants known as weeds have beneficial qualities (e.g. nutritional, medicinal, environmental, aesthetic) and can be called sochas.

Origin of socha

Ubykh Soatshe (noun), Spanish Nolana Sedifolia (Sosa/Hierba de la lombriz/Sosa brava) (noun), Spanish Sosa (noun), Portuguese and Galician Sousa (noun), Sosah (noun) of unknown origin; related to English Weed (noun)

History of socha

This usage of the word can be traced back to New York City in the early 2000s. The term was initially used to describe the wild plants found growing through the cracks of the city’s concrete sidewalks and around sewer drains. Since then, the expression has evolved to include most plants growing in surprising or unfavorable places and to symbolize perseverance (i.e. life finding a way).

*Disclaimer*

Sochas are equal opportunity growers and do not discriminate on the basis of temperature, light, water, oxygen, mineral content or insect species.
“There’s a beautiful socha right down the street.”

Southampton Chandler 

A technique for courtship practiced on the South Coast (usually in a nightclub, but can also be effective in libraries and hospitals). The maneouvre begins by working oneself into a unholy sweat, sauna's may be used, however the purists shun this frivilous aid.
Next the participant (using a feminine alias, such as Justin or Miranda) must choose his target and incessantly annoy them with a socially inept dogma - this can result in a 'pull'.
If the distinctly average looking target (gender unspecified) can be lured to a bedroom, the ritual mating will begin. This usually lasts for about 15 minutes or until the 'gurning fuck lizard' is so 'gunked up' her tears taste salty. Real Salty.

Illegal in most civilised worlds.
Justin: You know I created the Southampton Chandler

Girl: Get the fuck away from me, you depraved, red, sweaty fuck.

Justin: I'll put you down as a maybe.

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."
