A rational dialogue in which all the bullshit gets washed away, and straightforwardness is valued over emotional manipulation. Alludes to the gentle fall of rain, as rational discourse is more cleansing and beneficial than typical heated arguments driven by anger.

Instead of another rant, let's try and have a rainfall discussion about Islam. Both sides are much too emotionally charged to make any real progress.

Ugandan discussions

"Ugandan discussions" is a euphemism for sex coined during the early 1970s by the satirical British magazine "Private Eye".

The basis of the term arose at a party in London hosted by Neal Ascherson at which Irish moralist and journalist Mary Kenny, during her early, wild phase, spent some time upstairs with a former Ugandan government minister. On rejoining the other guests, Kenny explained their absence by saying they were "upstairs discussing Uganda".

— Where are they?
— I believe they slipped away for some private Ugandan discussions.

— She looks like she was dragged through a hedge backwards!
— She was upstairs discussing the situation in Uganda, allegedly.

FlowerBomber - I think what Malala Yousafzai's (the girl who got shot in the head by the Taliban) father said about The Satanic Verses and uproar and offence it caused in Pakistan is important with situations like this:
"First, let's read the book and then why not respond with our own book" and then said "Is Islam such a weak religion that it cannot tolerate a book written against it? Not my Islam!".

Diplomjodler - No wonder she got a bullet to her head. Extremist ideas can never survive a rainfall discussion. They can only exist by suppressing dissent. That's what all this shit is about.

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."
