Boyfriend bomb 

A maneuver in which a girl inserts a statement about her boyfriend to let any would-be suitors that she is already taken. In some cases it is used by single women who want to let a guy know that she isn't interested. Despite the violent name of this act, also called the boyfriend drop, and the pain it may cause for the male recipient, the boyfriend bomb is actually an act of kindness in either case. The girl is simply trying to show that she is taken or not interested, before the guy asks her out and makes an ass of himself.
As soon as I could tell he wasn't just being friendly, I hinted to him that I had a boyfriend so that he wouldn't get his hopes up.

That guy at the bar seemed really nice, he just wasn't my type, so I lied and dropped the boyfriend bomb as to not hurt his feelings.

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."
