She is shy, but when you know her she is anything but quiet. Between being athletic, loving random videos and good music she is quite a handful! Don't be afraid though, she'll ask what she doesn't know and tell you what you don't. Overall, a Gerlie is someone you could trust living in your house.

Talking to her always cheers you up. She tries to be what she sees as "good enough" because she only sees herself as less than. She's one of the most caring people you'll meet, fights for her friends, but forgets about her own feelings. She's always giving advice to friends and listening to them without even thinking about her own feelings or problems. She feels like a burden when she talks about her feelings so instead, she prefers to smile and act okay. Everyone takes her self-degrading jokes lightly, but few know how insecure she truly is. Most people take her jokes lightly, and only worry sometimes. She tries to only trust a few people because she's scared of being attached and then being left alone. She knows she has friends who are always there for her, but she still thinks she has to fight her battles alone. She tends to have sudden periods of depression and pure sadness, where she smiles even though she's a second away from shattering. She fights for what she believes in and for everyone she loves. She can be a bit impulsive, but that's just her being silly. Her heart is fragile, and she loves all her friends. She would rather be in pain forever rather than watch one of her friends suffer. When she truly falls, she falls completely without looking back. She falls for the wrong guys and seems to always end up crying. She always puts too much faith in people and can be a little too forgiving and naive in her own ways.

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.

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."
