The act of self-praise in an argument after making a statement or retort.

Common logical fallacy among the Baby Boomer generation as it is typically used among elders to validate their own points to younger people in a condescending matter.

(Also spelled “Dick Preaching”.)

An example of dickpreaching:

Uncle Vern: “I can’t believe the liberals just announced they’re raising the minimum wage, unbelievable.”

His Nephew: “Considering how the prices of necessities have inflated, I think this is for the best.”

Uncle Vern: “Then you’re going to get taxed more. ‘Oh yeah, that’s right Uncle Vern, that makes a lot of sense.’ Might as well drop the mic with that one.”

His Nephew: “Quit your dickpreaching, Uncle Vern. I would never say that because you’re not making a rational argument.”

The specific line of dickpreaching in this context is Uncle Vern himself saying “Oh yeah, that’s right Uncle Vern, that makes a lot of sense.” on behalf of his nephew who still does not agree with him.

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."
