Sign Language

SIGN language is a debating tactic used by most women and male feminist by engaging in language meant to Shame, Insult, Guilt, and a Need to be right against their opponent when they themselves can’t present a cogent argument based in facts, statistics and/or logic.

Kevin: Today’s modern female wants a traditional male but yet they’re not traditional women. They’re not equipped to be traditional women, they weren’t raised that way, nor do they want to be that way.

Female: Who hurt you? You’re just bitter and you probably have small penis. You obviously hate all women including your mother, and you don’t know what you’re talking about because you’re just a simple man.

Kevin: I’m Red Pilled, and your SIGN Language doesn’t work on 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."
