Zeus Effect 

Developed by Kevin in describing Martins consistent exercise of the fundamental governing laws of economics. Martin has given a new meaning to the term, "supply and demand." Martins ability of not being around when others talk about him has caused him to become immortalized in legendary delusions others fabricate as a defense mechanism in result of compensating for his lack of presence in their lives, also known as "ZEUS Effect".

His lack of presence is the greatest anomaly since wheat bread at the Cheesecake Factory. With his brief sightings throughout the US, including the Angeles Crest Forest, the Rocky mountains,( because he's can stay warm there shirt-less),and Las Vegas (because of they support limitless buffets that can satisfy his appetite,) Martin has established a reputation and following one of many  known as "Smartin," to the educational community, "Bubba" to the" CEA (Competetive Eating Association,)" and  "Sasquatch," to the southerners. The longest Martin sightings has taken place in a series of buffets throughout the U.S. Which after an encounter, end up claiming bankruptcy in result of martins insatiable appetite. Refusing the Right To Service to Martin would be considered the eight deadly sin...especially at a buffet.
Zeus Effect Examples:

"Martin didn't give me a birthday present, but its okay because I think he is a descendant of Abraham Lincoln and that's Present ENOUGH for me".

"Man I think martin is in training to be an Astronaut because I hear he is so heavy he wont bounce as much on the moon when he is collecting rocks and junk".

" I think martin is in training to be an Astronaut because due to the recession, NASA doesn't have to spend as much money on padding the space suit for thermal ventilation".

"I think Martin is in training for the Olympics because he has ignored all of my text messages. It must be Illegal to call him".

"Damn...I think Martin is playing for the Harlem globetrotters in 2007 cuz I barely saw him around".

"Martins must be a descendant of the Vikings because he's got enough body hair for a 72 hour bond fire".

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."
