altadena 

Altadena is a small town north of Pasadena, in the Los Angeles area, right at the base of the San Gabriel Mountains. It is known for being very diverse in regards to ethnicities and social/financial households.

Often referred to as "The Dena", Altadena is has been known to attract teenage partying and fun, not to mention quite a bit of marijuana use. Altadena also attracts teenagers from 'boring' areas or suburbs around Los Angeles (such as La Canada, etc.). Altadena is host to a few girls and boys foster homes and half-way houses, and is quite even in population between young people and elderly.

Gravity Hill is located in a "secret" location in Altadena, and Farnsworth Park is a notable landmark for partying, making out, pick-up baseball/basketball/football/soccer games, little league, picnics, and concerts.

Although Altadena has been host to a few gangs, violence is minimal, if there is violence at all. In fact, most violence goes down in Pasadena.

All in all, Altadena is the place to be for a naturally good time. No raves or anything, just good people and cool places to be.
Dude, I'm spending the weekend in Altadena. That place is the shit.

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."
