EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) is a method of psychotherapy that is best known for it's use of eye movement. It has been shown to be effective in numerous research studies, primarily for PTSD post traumatic stress disorder. The approach is more sophisticated than the impression you get when it is called "finger waving" or is referred to as a recovered memory therapy (inaccurate), or as a form of energy therapy or hypnosis.

Discouraged by six months of conventional psychotherapy, Baumgartner turned last August to a treatment called EMDR, or "eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing."

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.

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."
