A derisive name for someone of arab descent, from the turbans they wear.
PASSENGER ON A FLIGHT:

If that towelhead goes on my flight, I'm gonna make the airline re-book me onto another flight!

The other definitions of this word are inherently wrong as they insinuate that "arabs" wear turbans, which is incorrect. Some people of arab descent may wear some form of headgear to protect themselves from the sand in the desert, but the majority of arabs and muslims do not wear turbans. A turban is worn by those who follow sikhism and is one of the pillars of the religion. Referring to someone as a towel head (in the U.K at least) is derogetory and will usually be directed to a sikh man with a turban on his head. I can only assume that the other two people who have created a definition are american and therefore stupid.
Racistboy1: oi did you see that f***ing towelhead walkin past our school?
Racistboy2: yeh f***ing pakis and towelheads are all wankers, plus they look stupid with that thing on their head.
Sikh person(on overhearing): actually you chav scum, the turban is an integral part of our culture, how dare you sully our religion with your filthy insluts.
Racistboy1: dickhead(runs away)

When you are jerking it in the bathroom after a shower and use your plaid underwear to ejaculate on and wrapping it around the head of your penis thus looking like the stereotype of a towel head(Arab man).
I used my boxers the other night as a Towelhead for my dick.

Towelhead Wifi 

An excruciatingly horrendous wifi signal generally found in a cheap 2 star motel. Similar to McDonald's Wifi in terms of poor connection, though it could be better if the Indian guy managing the place would get off his ass to pay for better internet instead of wallowing in people's hard earned money.
Friend: Damn dude, your internet is total ass.
You: Yeah man, I'm staying at this really shitty motel near the highway.
Friend: Damn you're working with some Towelhead Wifi over there.

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.

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."
