Term coined by Carl Jung for the phenomenon of an apparent pattern of coincidental events which, while lacking any causal relationship, bear a meaningful relationship to the observer.

Example: A hot air balloon makes an emergency landing in your yard just as you're imagining what it's like to ride one.

I can't believe there is not a single reasonably correct and straight-forward definition provided for "synchronicity" here.

synchronicity

A magical connection of "coincidental" events that when you point out, makes you more intelligent than everyone else.

I was just thinking of the word synchronicity when I stumbled upon this definition.

Synchronicity

A real life to dream relation. To have a connection or think something has happened before. Very similar to deja vu or to know something in a dream before it actually happens in real life.

Girl 1: I think I have synchronicity!
Girl 2: wait isn't that when you know what is going to happen in real life because it has happened to you in a dream!!!
Girl 1: BINGO ☺

synchronicity

Paradox as a meta-state. The state of paradox being simultaneously a null value and a self-value with a pursuant corollary that "self" and "null" are oppositive values respectively.

Synchronicity is one of four states of the paradox: paradox-as-a-line (process) , paradox-as-a-point (value), paradox-as-a-curve (phenomenon), and paradox-as-a-state (metastate) with two, paradox-as-a-process and paradox-as-a-state being meta-states.

synchronicity

A series of coincidental events that may appear important. If you believe my other definition - then you ARE special. In a retarded sort of way.

"Sie...duh, wauk-uh. Woah, we're walking on a sidewalk!"
"And?"
"And? And I was just thinking of that word. That's not synchronicity. I think the universe is trying to tell me something..."
"Dude you need to lay off the dissociatives."

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

Whale

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."
