hipster flu 

a karmic flu-like epidemic that plagues only individuals with high levels of pretension (in most cases, said pretensions are music-related).

The last reported outbreak occurred in San Francisco in June of 2009.
FIXED-GEAR BIKE RIDER #1: I'm working 40 hours this week at my independently-owned-and-operated fair-trade coffee shop on Valencia St this week. Not to mention the paper I have to write contrasting Sartre and Camus for my French Existentialism class. I absolutely cannot afford to contract hipster flu!

FIXED-GEAR BIKE RIDER #2: oh man, you better start listening to some Donna Summer non-ironically!

Hipsterflip

The subjective experience resulting from taking the research psychedelic 2C-E followed by increments of bk-MDMA (Methylone) as the 2C-E peaks and throughout its plateau. The depth and intensity of the experience is heavily dose dependent. The experience is comparable to a tripped out, underground, indie version of the infamous Candyflip (LSD + MDMA), hence its name.

The combination of research chemicals holds many risks however. A Hipsterflip, with high enough doses, can leave one feeling extremely depersonalized for weeks to come, as well as inducing indefinite HPPD visual alterations and patterning. Excessive amounts of bk-MDMA, as with many stimulating euphoriants/entactogens, can lead to high blood pressure, prolonged rapid heart rate, and heart attack. The long term effects of both 2C-E and bk-MDMA are not yet fully understood.
Guy 1: "Alright, so last night, I Hipsterflipped. At 10:00PM, I ate around 18mg of 2C-E. And then, I parachuted doses of methylone over the course of the night, probably up until around 4AM. I've never experienced such a colorful, tripped out, drugged up psychedelic experience in all of my life."

Guy 2: "Dude, you're fucking crazy! How are you feeling today?"

Guy 1: "Well, I still haven't managed to sleep yet. My heart has been beating out of my chest for the past 12 hours, I feel like my mind is suffocating in a Nazi gas chamber, I've been hallucinating the must fucked up, hypnotic shit all day long. In contrast to ecstasy comedowns, I'm not depressed at least. I definitely don't recommend combining 2C-E with a ton of methylone. I've probably permanently damaged my heart."

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."
