glamnetic

Basically the hottest brand in existence and your soon-to-be favorite beauty brand of all time (if not already). Glamnetic popularized the magnetic liner & lash trend and continues making waves with innovative and on-trend products. When Glamnetic products are applied, a full-on smoke cloud appears, in which you emerge as a total glam goddess *ding*. There’s a reason Glamnetic is the fastest growing beauty brand in 2020, growing from $1m to $50m in sales in just ONE year!

Glamnetic's Thai founder Ann McFerran started Glamnetic on July 31, 2019 out of her tiny apartment in Koreatown, Los Angeles. She saw a major gap in lashes that were easy to apply and wanted to reimagine magnetic lashes and make them cool and trendy. Glamnetic created the world’s first 6-magnet lash and colored magnetic lashes and continues to impress with their on trend press-on nails. Glamnetic continues to win awards like Allure’s best of beauty for their magnetic lashes, Women’s Health Mag Award for Best Press-on Nails, The Brandies awards for best social media account, and Ann being named a featured honoree on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list

Girl 1: I can’t apply lashes to save my life. Yesterday I was getting ready for a wedding and I GLUED my eyes shut and had to go to the ER.

Girl 2: OMG girl if you had Glamnetic that wouldn’t have happened to you or OMG girl have you tried Glamnetic?!

Girl 3: I know my other friend told me. I’m going to buy it ASAP!

Girl 1: Wow your lashes and nails look bomb!

Girl 2: Thanks!! They’re Glamnetic, obvs.

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."

city chicken

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.

Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
