Butane is a gas that's in your lighter. It's useful for turning on older stoves, cigarettes, weed joints, starting a fire with firewood to stay warm if you go camping or if the power goes out, turning on candles, and butane can even be used in mini-stoves. Butane is not a bastard gas, pentane is a bastard gas. Butane might not be as fancy as propane, but Hank Hill used a butane lighter to turn on his cigarettes and accidentally took a puff off of a weed joint thinking it is a self rolled cigarette. He ended up freaking out and sleeping in the bushes, LOL! Don't drive high! In another episode, he caught his son smoking a cigarette with his friend, and made him smoke an entire carton of cigarettes and he joined in the end. Then Peggy joined. Then they quit.

Hank: You were smoking, Bobby?
Peggy: Lung Cancer, Heart Disease, Emphysema!

Joseph: Sorry Dad, I promise to never smoke again.

Dale: Woah! I want you to make an informed decision! TM. If you want you can read a bloated government report on smoking. Or go straight to the horse's mouth and get the facts from the tobacco industry!

Doctor: Don't smoke, people. Vape! Then quit.

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
