An old meme that is resurrected like Frankenstein's Monster (hence the name, Franked), for the purpose of milking it for the new stale memes that are unfunny, repeated and redundant.
A good example of a Franked meme is Morshu, who used to be a classic good old meme in the times of the Golden Age of Youtube, when memes were better then and YouTube Poops weren't stale, now resurrected by a bunch of 12-year old zoomers and decided it would be funny to milk it to death by making stupid videos.
Sometimes, you gotta face it, an old and dead meme is better being off dead, than being brought back.

Jack: That new Morshu RTX video was so funny, dank and lit, bruh!
John: Really, Jack? Why are you telling me this franked meme again?

Frankenbite

1. A frankenbite allows editors to manufacture "story" efficiently and dramatically by extracting the salient elements of a lengthy, nuanced interview or exchange into a seemingly blunt, revealing confession or argument.

2. In reality television, the process of editing two or more sound bites together to create a different result, to fix grammar, or to change to meaning of a sentence.

Example: Adding "not" to the phrase "I'm here to make friends" results in "I'm not here to make friends".

Please frankenbite that interview so he is speaking in present tense.

Al Franken

The United States senator who finally gave the Democratic Party the 60 votes they needed to keep the GOP from filibustering the country to a standstill.

Jon Stewart: "(Senator Arlen) Specter's move (switching political parties) puts the Democrats within a hair's breath of an unfilibusterable 60 seat Senate majority.

So now it appears the Senate's balance of power--in many respects, the very future of our nation--is in the hands of Al Franken."

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.

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."
