TWITTERVENTION 

When someone tweets so much that it becomes a problem, the friends of said person get together to host a Twittervention.

"Really?"

"Yeah, like he's tweeting every other minute."

"Oh man, I think it's time for a Twittervention."

"Definitely."

TWITTERVENTION 

A Twittervention the act of confronting someone who goes overboard with their status updates on social networking sites such as Facebook and MySpace, when it would be more appropriate to use a social messaging site such as twitter, or a blog. In some cases, it may be necessary to consult a trained twitterventionalist, and be prepared to give the ultimatum to revoke their friend status if their addiction is not addressed.
Jim: Angela updates her Facebok status so much I can’t stand it. I told her about Twitter but she just would not listen so I blocked her updates.
Ben: Blocking isn’t going to help. We have to stage a Twittervention.

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."
