Ctrl+Alt+Del 

1. A combination of keys used in most Windows operating system to open the task manager, most notably used for closing programs which are for some reason difficult otherwise. Has other features that no one ever uses though.

2. A gaming webcomic created by Tim Buckley often with associated other webcomics such as 8-Bit Theater, Penny Arcade, and VG Cats. However, many consider it to be inferior to the forementioned webcomics due to the fact that it often steals jokes and ideas from them. It is also considered to be a lot more commercialistic than the others. Overall, it isn't too bad though.
1. After attempting to run Windows Media Player, Battlefield 2, Doom 3, and Norton Antivirus all at the same time, my computer 'asploded and I had to use Ctrl+Alt+Del to to put it out of its mysery.

2. All hail Ethan, king of Winter-een-mas!

ctrl+alt+del 

A heavily over-rated webcomic. It used to be quite funny, but it lost it, it is now plagued by long winded story arcs, overexplained jokes and overly repetetive Copy-Pasted art. The comic however still seems the most popular on the web, most probably due to the relentless fanboys who foam at the mouth when you have the slightest critisizm for the damn comic. The forums are run by those fanboys so you can expect the results.
ctrl+alt+del was funny at first, but I don't know why people still read it, it's boring :/

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."
