Stanley Kurbrick Filmed the Moon Landing 

From 1945 to 1991 there was the Cold War between the United States, NATO, and the Western world and the Soviet Union, Comintern in Asia, and the Warsaw Pact in Europe.
In 1968, Stanley Kubrick released 2001:A Space Oddesy.
Meanwhile the Space Race was going on between the USA and the USSR, with the Soviets having major wins, leading to the US becoming desperate to get a major win.
Now, here's where we get crazy, because this theory states that the US gov, seeing Kubrick's wonderful job filming space, hired Stanley Kubrick to film the Moon Landing, giving the US a false major win over the Soviets.
There's even a video released after Kubrick's death of him confessing to it.

Now for the debunking.
First off, no member of the world at large had seen video of space, meaning he could've made it look however, and you have to keep in mind this is Kubrick that we're talking about. His films are incredibly well-made with dozens upon dozens of retakes until it's perfect, not to mention the director and extended editions, while the Moon Landing has bad audio and video quality, is short, is fuzzy, and is the polar oppisite of Kubrick's works.
Now at this point you may be thinking "But my name, you said there's video of him confessing to it", well, that video is quite easy to be proven as a hoax -- made by a random guy who moderately looks like 1990s Kubrick --, simple as.
As to why this easily-disprovable conspiracy began, well, that is something I'm still pondering, myself.

You, an intellectual: Don't be a fool; everyone knows Hitchcock filmed it
This was originally about 2,400 characters, but I needed to revise it to just 1,500 to publish it, so it's not as enticing, not as in depth, nor does it explain what nations were even in the Comintern or Warsaw Pact, but i encourage you to watch a video on YouTube about this by The Why Files

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."
