Freakin' Ugly Light Bulb. A CFL, or Compact Fluorescent Light, one of the energy-saving alternatives to incandescent bulbs. Often shaped like a corkscrew or ice-cream swirl, this bulb seems to be growing in popularity for the above reason and that its life span is much longer than most incandescent bulbs. It also burns with less heat than incandescent bulbs, making it easier to remove from a lamp. Disadvantage (a major one): CFLs contain mercury, which becomes toxic if it vaporizes, so one must be careful when installing or removing the bulb so as not to break its shell. Rhymes with "bulb".

I see you finally got around to buying a fulb. In a few years from now, I hear that we'll be seeing LED bulbs too.

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.

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."
