Ethno Rah 

A UK social clique. Wore dreadlocks at uni but then got rid of them for their job in Ethical Investment (the ambitious ones) / Yoga Therapy (the bums).
All went to public school. Bryanston / Bedales are main feeders.
Easily identified by their dream catcher earrings,suede Inuit boots, Goa suntan and self-aware serenity when they tell you their self-purifying Bhakti Yoga seminar they attended.
When they were in London's Cuckoo Club trying to pull Nat Rothschild the night before.
Their main trick is to present a veneer of muesli-wholesome, down-to-earth karma, when in fact they're a socially ambitious, manipulative and back-biting lot.
All LOVE psychadelic trance, and congregate at the UK's Glade festival every year, bringing an extra tent to house their assorted outfits for the weekend.
Person 1 - India is having her leaving party before she goes to Goa in Shoreditch House (exclusive London member's club)


Person 2 - What an Ethno Rah

ethno-scene 

To be ethno-scene is to be into something that is not only really cool, popular and fashionable, but also very ethnic, or of exotic in culture. This just ups it "level of cool" to over 9000.

An ethno-scene kid probably enjoys:
-hookah
-pho (Vietnamese soup)
-boba (tapioca drinks and milk teas)
-anything that seems exotic, particularly asian or middle eastern.

Ethno-scene is probably caused by the popularity of being liberal, open minded, and culturally accepting. It's found most often in Caucasian people, who want to reach out to a new culture, but ultimately only because it's cool to do so.

Ethno-scenesters enjoy spouting the names of foreign foods and actives, and saying "Oh my god! You've never tried/heard of it?!" And touting the fact that they have.

They're willing to try anything once if it seems ethnic and exotic, and thus cool. This makes them susceptible to eating things that would generally be considered nasty, like bugs or animal organs, and even if they don't necessarily like it, they'll say that it's the best thing ever.

ie tripe (stomach lining) in pho. While pho is actually tasty to even the least exotic peoples, adding tripe makes it 100 times cooler, because it's disgusting, but eaten in other cultures.
"Hey, they have hookah at the coffee shop now!"
"Aw man, if they just served pho, boba, and -insert ethnic food or activity here-, we'd be set! ...Aw man, when'd I become so ethno-scene?"

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...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
