Microjority 

My new word MICROJORITY meaning an amount greater than 50% but less than 55% considered to be as 50/50 - Or in a non-binary example (where 3 or more split options exist) then a MICROJORITY result would be a where the largest of the results is within 5% points of the next lowest.
The word is used to demonstrate an amount/quantity split in parts where the largest part is only slightly greater than the next largest. Therefore Microjority gives a better prospective of the result.

'Micro' (from the Greek meaning small) 'jority' from 'Majority' meaning larger part/number, greater part/number, major part, main part, more than half but gives the impression of being much greater than 55%.

Example; A ballot of 10,000,000 voters where the result is 5,000,001 - 4,999,999. The majority is 1 vote but the vote should be referred to as a Microjority - not a Majority.
The UK - EU Brexit vote)48% voted to remain - vs - 52% to leave. Leave was won by a small majority - A Microjority.

Microhobby 

In these days of constant distraction, hyperactive advertising, media, social networks, cool devices, gadgets, geekery, sport, clubs, activities, short haul weekends away, gigs, shows, films, festivals, and er, the 9to5 work that pays for it all, can anyone really have the time to form a proper hobby? Devote regular time each week to actually turn up and do stuff? I’m not so sure…

The affliction of having microhobbies is similar to the advanced nerd manifestation that is NADD and has the same cause - always searching for something new, something cool, the new high thats comes from finding something out, finding out how it links into the world and expands your mental map of everything. Once linked, of course, it serves no further purpose in itself, why should it? Why stop there when it can be used to understand the next cool thing? Time to move onto it. Now, now now!

A microhobby just like a regular hobby with the important exception of commitment and any longterm interest or building of skill. Microhobbies are entered into with much gusto, breathless enthusiasm, non-stop bluster and chatting to anyone who will listen, do all your research, buy all the kit, get involved, get really involved, get distracted by something shiny, get confused, get bored, go home, try something else…

Sufferers would love to be brilliant at something, anything, but there’s simply too much they want to do. There’s too much to know about, so much opportunity to try new things, that they seem to never build up depth in any particular area.
Buying that new Telecaster you've always wanted to play, buy some tab, some replacement strings, take two weeks off work and play solidly (and badly) and imagine yourself the Next Big Thing. Then go back to work, sadly, and get caught up in going out to some gigs, shows, meeting mates etc, think how cool it would be to learn the drums, forget all about your obsession for the guitar, put it away for six months then sell it. You've now played guitar, well done. Check the box, tell your friends "I used to play guitar" and never think of it again.

You've just had a microhobby.

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.

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.

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."
