The fictional pairing of Theo Decker and Boris Pavlikovsky. The pairing met in Las Vegas as teenagers, only to fall in love with one another and be reunited as adults. They suit one another and canonically kiss. It’s alluded to that they did more than just that. I mean, they raised a fucking dog together.

Person: boreo is canon. Boris and Theo are so in love. I mean, look at this: “The funny thing: I’d worried, if anything that Boris was the one who was a little too affectionate, if affectionate is the right word. The first time he’d turned in bed and draped an arm over my waist, I lay there for a moment, not knowing what to do: stating at my old socks on the floor, empty beef bottles, my paper backed copy of The Red Badge of Courage. At last—embarrassed—I faked a yawn and tried to roll away m, but instead he sighed and pulled me closer, with a sleepy, snuggling motion.

Ssh, Potter, he whispered, into the back of my neck. Is only me.”

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.

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."
