famnesia

The ability to forget about one's family once they are out of your sight

As soon as Tommy got on the train to go back home, famnesia kicked in and he completely forgot all the details of every conversation he had and every family member's face! He felt free

Fabnesia

Pretending that you don't know every single detail about a Facebook Friend's life so that you (a) do not seem like a stalker or (b) have something to talk about. Also an antidote for friends that over-share on social media.

(1) I had to feign Fabnesia when I was talking to my old girl friend so she thought I wasn't checking her out on Facebook! (2) If I didn't have Fabnesia, I would have had nothing to say to him!

femnesia

When a female, angrily says to another mostly a male, stop calls I don't want this relationship anymore, I hate you don't call me anymore. And then anywhere from a few minutes to an hour later she actually level she's never said that she don't remember her she swears up and down that she was not the one. Hintz FEMNESIA.

WOW! My girlfriend just told me that she hates me, and that she never wants to see me nor be with me ever again. She even text it to me. NOW SHE DENIES THAT SHE EVER SAID THAT TO ME ALL. SHE MUST HAVE FEMNESIA.

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."
