Space Marines 

One of the most popular races in the table top game, Warhammer 40k. Space marines are basically super soldiers with power armor. The reason for their popularity is
1. Their tactics are fairly straight forward.
2. They are easy to paint.
3. Easy on the wallet since you don't need many of them to have an effective army.
4. They are hella tough.
Damn, he just raped my orc army with his space marines because my orcs have a fucking stupid 6+ save and are raped by bolters.

Space Marines 

One of the strongest races in a video game called Warhammer 40k:Dawn of war. Remember when you are playing as them you wouldn't need 60 men to destroy a base like you would
with the Eldar (space elves). Only about 20-30 to take out a base. At first they may seem confusing but after you master the Eldar they seem SUPER easy. When I first started playing Dawn of War I thought that i could
only play as the Eldar and despised the Imperial Guard. But one day I decided "I'm
gonna choose space marines for the hell of
it" then i brutally destroyed 5 out of 6 of the opponents. Then my friend took out the last one with his Eldar.
Billy:I'm going to choose Space Marines!

Mitchell: Space Marines blow!

1 month later

Mitchell: Holy **** i destroyed them!

Billy: See all you had to do was practice.

Bald Space Marines 

The modern character design for just about every M-rated first-person-shooter and third-person-shooter video game. It involves a bald, ridiculously muscular alpha male (space) marine with a very manly chin. Usually the personality of your average badass war hero comes with this design.
Crysis. Gears of War. Killzone. GTAIV. Mass Effect. Space Marines. All big fans of the Bald Space Marines character design.

Faction in Warhammer 40K. Imperium of Man's best soldiers. An outcome of lots of genetic engineering, rigorious training and awsomly looking armour. have guns that shoot "bolts" - somethinh between a bullet and a rocket. Has access to lots of powrefull weapons and venchiles. main drawback - old gear, because in W40K humans are affraid of new technologies. although pretty awesome, powerfull adn fearless they rarely win in real life because of stupid people playing with them
every space marine died from the attack or dark eldar. SM player was a moron.

space marine

the space marine could be compared to the cowboys of the old west, or pirates of the high seas. they are tough, smart, and always have the biggest guns or are just insanely strong. the idea of the space marine has been around for a while, but only in recent years have they been popular in books, movies, and videogames. you might not realise it, but you can look in almost any sci fi movie and find a space marine. pretty soon you wont be able to find any children playing "cowboys and injuns" but youll find many playing "spartans and covenants" the only difference is that theyre playing it online via xbox live.
master chief, the doom(1,2,and 3)guy, all those dead guys from metroid prime 2: echoes, everyone in the movie aliens,and the humans in aliens vs. predator and prettymuch anyone else with a big gun and a uniform in a science fiction movie/book/videogame.

Technically, the troopers in "Starship Troopers" were known as 'The Mobile Infantry,' storm troopers, shock troops, marines, and army special forces all rolled into one.

The military personal featured in "Aliens" and "Space: Above and Beyond" were 'space marines.'

'Space Marines' were also featured in the Japanimation show "Space Battleship Yamato/Star Blazers." In the original Japanese show they were called 'The Space Calvary."

In the James Bond movie "Moonraker," Drax's space station is attacked by U.S. Astronaut Marines--different beast entirely.

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."
