adrift at sea

starting to take a shit in a public toilet when it's empty, but then someone else enters the toilets and you have to hold until they leave before you continue your business.

the term comes from the same fear and loneliness felt by both those genuinely lost at sea and those holding a shit in a public restroom
Steve-"bro you were in that toilet for ages! what was the deal with that!?"
Dan-"Ah man, i ended up adrift at sea, the fear i felt was unbearable!"
Steve- " i'm so sorry that happened to you"

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."
