Engaging in prostitution 

I didn't engage in any prostitution that I'm aware of. Unless I've been set up. Which I will just appeal because I wouldn't pay a single cent for the last sex I've had and if someone else did then they wasted their money.
Hym "Engaging in prostitution? You are trying to make me guilty of everything of everything I said you are doing and everything I said I would do. And that's the difference. I'm both biased and objectively correct and you're just biased. It's just more biased pearl clutching. Oh no muh kids parish the thought and then you pretend to faint because you're a fucking actress. You're ridiculous. Isn't a good thing you're always wearing make up. That probably makes it super easy for you to throw on your red wig and hop in your for your side gig. Jesus! Seriously. We wouldn't even need politics if you idiots could step outside of yourselves for even a single second. A bunch of partisan hacks! All of ya!"

Dismissive engagement / dismissive engaging 

Dismissive Engagement / dismissive engaging

When someone half-heartedly enters a debate just to shut it down, insult, or provoke — then immediately claims they don’t care, cutting off any real discussion.

They engage long enough to invalidate your point (or rile you up), but then retreat into “I don’t care” mode so they don’t have to defend themselves. It’s basically a one-way valve for arguments: their opinion goes through, yours gets dismissed.

• You: “I think the government should…”
Them: “That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard. But I don’t care anyway, go argue with someone else.”
• You: “Here’s why I like this policy.”
Them: “LMAO that’s trash, but whatever, not my problem.”

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."
