liejacking

Falsely accusing an opponent or potential critic of the exact thing that you are saying or doing before they get a chance to call you out on what you are saying or doing.

Thus, bystanders and third parties become confused as to what is real and what isn't, and you stand a chance of getting away with what you are saying or doing.

He told a lie and then immediately said "but the fake news media will lie and disagree with me". Now the press can't call him on his lie without looking like liars themselves and neutral bystanders feel like they have to take a middle-ground. That's some shady liejacking right there.

Donald Trump told a lie and then immediately accused the press of fake news. Now when they call him out on his bs, they look like they're lying themselves. That's some shady liejacking right there.

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.

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."
