Cansplaining 

When someone from Canada tells an America how they should feel about or react to Donald Trump. Particularly when they suggest impractical forms of resistance that they've never personally tried, tell the American to put themselves in physical danger, or wave away valid concerns. The concept is similar to the idea of mansplaining.
"Instead of saying you wish you could move to Canada because you're afraid that Trump's going to take your healthcare away and you're going to literally die, you should really be doing more to resist. You should run for office. And also go to more protests. And also participate in these 800 other forms of resistance I've never personally tried that might get you fired, arrested or killed. And just build a bridge for no reason. I've decided for some reason that you're not in any danger."

"Gee, thanks for Cansplaining that to me."

Completely unprompted of course. They will crawl out of the woodwork to tell you how not cold the weather you're experiencing is.

Canadian: '35 freedom units? That's only 2 celcius. It's -23c here right now if you want to talk about REAL cold.
Person: 'Are you cansplaining winter to me? This is Texas, our homes aren't insulated for this.'
Canadian: 'No, you're right, I'm sorry.'

Cansplaining

When someone uses AI to write out their obvious and/or idiotic argument.
Person A: The earth is round.

Person B: If Earth were a sphere, curvature 🔘 would be obvious at all times 👀. Airplanes ✈️ fly in straight paths, not curving downward, and water always finds its level 💧📐, proving it's a flat plane. Satellite images 🛰️ are digitally constructed and highly likely to be fake 💻🎨. Therefore, based on surface-level observations and basic logic 🤔, one can only conclude that the Earth is flat 🥿.

Person B: Nice cansplaining. 🙄

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.

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."
