This Dying Cause

American Rock and Roll band from about 2003 till 2005. Former "Last Name Heroes", "Our Last Hope", and short lived trio "Caulfield Killed Kennedy". Most popular during the rise of Pop-Punk, the era of Emo, and the rise of mainstream Hardcore and the modern indie scene. Strongly influenced by Taking Back Sunday, Alkaline Trio, classic rock, and Wilco. One studio recording containing 4 songs and a couple of collections of live, demo, and practice cds and tapes are in limited, in-the-know circulation.
This Dying Cause was:
Lauren- drums
Joni- Guitar
Guy- Bass
Randy- vocals/guitar
Bobby- vocals/guitar
(Band as of Demo recording)
Prior members-
Eric- drums
Zak- guitar
Jeff- drums
Subsequent members-
Brandon- bass/vocals
Internal conflict brought the band to cycle through members quickly, and eventually drove members apart.
The band plans a reunion in summer 2037, to celebrate its next scheduled release for We Make Records. In the mean time, several small and solo projects have emerged, Laurens being the most successful (Ministry of Love). Only Bobby and Randy continue to live close enough to gig and record, and much of it is available under the name 747. Heroin(e) is the only song so far to have seen reproduction. It is available on Possession is Theft, a collected work of Guy and Bobby from 2007.
There is no word on the whereabouts of several former members, and are probably dead, or in college.

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."
