Corn Exchange 

A trendy shopping centre in Leeds, U.K. often perceived as "scary" because it is a hang out place for moshers, goths and emos - however this is not strictly true. The people outside aren't trouble-makers or thugs - they are friendly youths just doing what they enjoy. If you step inside, you will notice the sophisticated shops and stalls create a lovely atmosphere, rather the opposite to what people expect after seeing the outside.
"I can't find anything to wear for the party.."
"Try at the corn exchange there's always great, fashionable and alternative clothes there!"

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."
