English expression in use by sailors in the Royal Navy before the Second World War. It refers to large, baggy and shapeless underwear that can be male or female attire. When male it refers to the baggy shorts that were issued to both junior and senior rates at the time. When female, it refers to the baggy bloomers type of knickers with elasticated legs, the sight of which is guaranteed to turn off all but the most ardent (or desperate) suitors. In short they are the sort of thing that not even Bridget Jones would wear.

noise hamper

An object that produces a white noise (like a fan, or maybe a radio on a lower volume) that is used to make sounds audible in a very quiet environment not quite as noticeable. Noise hampers can be used to make it harder to hear you doing something you don't want others to know about.

Noise hampers explain why so many people like to masturbate in the bathroom with the shower running.

While Tyrone and Shelly were having sex, Shelly used her fan as a noise hamper so her parents wouldn't hear her moaning.

I had to find a noise hamper so I could fap in peace.

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."
