YouTube subbing 

YouTube subbing is when you take a real conversation with friends and substitute it for watching YouTube videos, usually when someone will be reminded of a YouTube video they want to show you. This inevitably triggers a response video that someone else wants to show them, effectively killing any real conversation. The two videos are likely to be completely unrelated.
Jay: "I'm so glad to see you guys again, it's been almost a year! Let's go to the bar and catch up!"

Eric: "Oh! That reminds me of this YouTube video of this guy that's totally wasted. Here I'll show you."

Corey: "Dude, did you see that one with the guy getting his ass kicked in a street fight?"

Eric: "Hold on, we'll watch that one next."

Jay: "Are you guys YouTube subbing our reunion here?"

Eric: "Oh, you totally gotta see this Subway employee freaking out next."

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."
