Verisimilitude 

"An illusion's verisimilitude helps to trick us into seeing what isn't really there. Verisimilitude is the appearance of being true or real, and is something that we tend to all strive for in our daily lives. The word is often used to describe stories, so next time a friend tells you an epic story about their night, be sure to let them know whether or not their story had verisimilitude." (Brainjet.com)

verisimilitude 

A word used by pretentious douchebags on internet forums in a vain attempt to cover up the fact they just don't like something, and can't give an intelligent reason as to why not.

It may also be used by students writing critical papers in English Literature classes for much the same purpose, with the double bonus in the hope that dropping a big Latin-based word will get them a higher mark.
I noticed my buddy dropped "verisimilitude" in the opening paragraph, and didn't mention realism (or the appearance thereof) anywhere else. I told him you have to explain what this big word means, or your prof's gonna take off a ton of points.

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."
