(noun) a subdued thrumming in the head that is more unsettling than uncomfortable, and does not hurt so much as just feels strange, not at the level of a headache, something lighter, usually induced by substance abuse or an almost-hangover therefrom, but potentially resulting from anything, or nothing, for all you know.

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.
