Being "Feynmanesque" when describing the atom:

"If an apple was magnified to the size of the Earth, then the atoms in the apple would be approximately the size of the original apple." - Richard Feynman

"Ahh, that makes things clear now." -Layman

Richard Feynman

Richard Phillips Feynman (pronounced Fine-Muhn) (1918-1988) was an American theoretical physicist known for his work in quantum mechanics, quantum electrodynamics, and particle physics. Feynman attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) for his undergraduate studies, Princeton University for his doctoral degree, and later the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) for his research and as a professor. Feynman assisted in the Manhattan Project to develop the atomic bomb and worked with Oppenheimer as well as many other great scientific minds. Feynman was a member of the Rogers Commission which investigated the 1986 Challenger Disaster. Although he is regarded as one of the greatest physicists of all time, he was not your typical genius. An example of this was when during his undergraduate studies at MIT, he stole the door to the room where a group of obnoxious know it all students would study. "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman! (Adventures of a Curious Character)" is a collection of memories from his life, and should be read by anyone who has ever walked into a physics class. In layman's terms, Feynman was the epitome of an intellectual badass.

Alec: "What'cha reading Daniel?"
Daniel: "Surely You're Joking Mr. Feynman!"
Alec: "What's that about?"
Daniel: "The life of Richard Feynman, one of the greatest physicists of all time."
Alec: "Oh yeah! I remember that guy. He showed how superfluid helium worked and embarrassed liquid helium scientists even when they tried using Feynman diagrams to try and explain how the wave functions of helium atoms behave."
Daniel: "Yup, Feynman was an intellectual badass."

Paul Feeney

Is a term used to describe someone unwilling to quit or give up, even at the risk of one's own safety, sanity or life.

Only a Paul Feeney would walk across that burning broken glass on the edge of a cliff to save that half-dead, run over puppy from that hungry lion's mouth.

You'd have to be a Paul Feeney to think anything can be done and not just give up already like most mortal men.

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."
