When an individual, who has always thought or assumed they're straight, suddenly develops a huge crush on someone of the same gender. This makes the individual wonder if they are actually bisexual, rather than straight. As the same-sex crushes persist (as well as opposite-sex crushes), they realize in time that they have had their bisexual awakening, and are indeed a bisexual.

"It's weird... I've always only ever liked girls... but now I have the biggest crush on Matt! I want him, I want nobody but him! I've never felt this way before!! I... think I've had my bisexual awakening!!"

Spring Awakening Budapest

The lulziest incarnation of the Broadway show Spring Awakening to date. If you go see this, remember to be on the lookout for butter knives, pillows, armless babies, disco cubes, and plenty of bloody sheets. Though statutory rape, boy-on-boy rape, and girl-on-boy rape are all present, we guarantee that you'll be in tears before the Song of Purple Togas!

Person 1: Have you seen Spring Awakening Budapest yet?!
Person 2: Oh my god, yes! The Mirror Blue Bucket was so SYMBOLIC~!

Spiritual Awakening

Spiritual awakening refers to a shift in consciousness, an apperception of reality which had been previously unrealized. The culmination of such realizations is in the recognition of oneness with all of existence.

Over the course of human history there has existed a timeless wisdom - a deep and profound realization of the ground state of being; the unconditioned source of all existence.

Over time, many great teachers have come to embody this wisdom, some of note include Jesus (the Christ), Siddhartha Gautama (the Buddha), Lao-Tzu, and Krishna - though there have been many more.

The core message has been the same, that absolute truth is beyond all the concepts and beliefs of man, that underlying apparent differences is fundamental oneness, and that your true nature is whole, unbounded and everlasting.

All form arises from pure potentiality; the sages referred to this as emptiness, the Tao, Brahman, Allah, God - while science may refer to it as the implicate order or the zero point field.

By any name, the words point to an intangible energetic essence that transitions from possibility and timelessness to actualization, where experience occurs through the rich diversity of form.

To say that you've had a spiritual awakening is a bit of an oxymoron, the 'you' is exactly what vanishes.

To be on a path to spiritual awakening is more accurate.

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.

Whale

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."
