"Dating preferences are personal, but when someone exclusively dates white partners while disparaging Black women, that starts to look like Tom-foolery."

or

"There’s a difference between making a living in adult entertainment and actively feeding into racist tropes. Performing under a name like ‘Mandingo’ or engaging in race-play content that glorifies slavery-era fantasies? That’s not just exploitation—that’s Tom-foolery."

Tom foolary

Something yelled at the top of an elderly persons lungs to describe anger towards a younger generation. It is slightly more annoying than a shenanigan and slightly less evil than hooliganism.

A teenager places a bag of burning dog poop on an elderly womans porch and runs away after ringing the doorbell.

Woman yells: You dam youngins and your tom foolary.

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."
