Brainrot Content 

Brainrot Content refers to the various "short" type-videos (typically a YouTube short, a TikTok, an Instagram reel etc.) that swarm Social Media feeds. It's very easy to get sucked in and watch one short after another without even noticing. This lack of stimulation (or more correctly, EMPTY stimulation) "rots" the brain because of its self-repetition and low quality.
Guy 1: "Hey man, Sorry I couldn't come to the party, I scrolled through youtube shorts and forgot."
Guy 2: "What the fuck man! Don't watch that, that's brainrot content!"

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."
