Platology

An amalgamation of lectures and philosophies including, but not limited to: Being the face of Bejing Corn, Crocodile Jesus, and the way things were in the military.

pitology

It is simply the study of pits. Of course, a pitlologist must pick a field to specialize in (e.g., watermelon pits, BBQ pits, or the study of pitiful situations and puns).

When I grow up I want to study pitology since I'm so good at falling into them. I'm going to study pits in the Amazon, Aztec ruins, ancient Buddhist temples, and various tombs in Egypt and India.

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust 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."
