A more apropos term for the medium-sized sub-planetary solar system bodies recently designated non-planets by the International Astronomers' Union. Replaces "dwarf planets," sounds fun and interesting, and could get you extra credit in an astronomy class.
"My spacecraft is headed for the planito Pluto."
"I visited the planito Ceres. Here's a planito rock!"
"Studies suggest that there may be hundreds of planitos in trans-Neptunian orbits."

plankton uchiha 

A name belonging to a semi-known Rust cheater who has cheated on many Icefuse servers (particularly Warden 2x) during late-spring to late-summer of 2020. They're rumors that this person went back onto Icefuse in December 2020 but got banned due to cheating. They're also rumors that he wasn't cheating in Rust (in December), but using a hack for the game "Among Us". This player was in the clans, "gayz", "BO99", "999", "BOPP", "damm", "damn", "ESP", and several others. This player has used the handles, "plankton uchiha", "ploonkton uzumaki", "ez claps ez smacks", "Triple Heady Go To Beddy" (not the original), and several others. This player has bypassed several HWID bans (given by Rust) and several Icefuse bans. He was nearly banned when his online friend (AuraLoL) went against him as a wipe (as a challenge) and gave all the evidence that plankton gave him, unfortunately, plankton was afk at the time of the report being reviewed.
Nick #BeamerSZN: Remember plankton uchiha?
AuraLoL: Fuck you, kid. That's my homie.

office plankton

A phrase of (presumably) Russian origin that is used as an offensive description of a regular office worker. The punch comes from the fact that experienced office workers are completely stripped of their personalities and idiosyncrasies, concerned or interested about nothing outside their comfy cubicles, making their appearance similar to that of plankton - mindless and expressionless creatures at the bottom of food chain left at the mercy of those higher up.
14 yo. George: the last thing I want to become when I grow up is office plankton like my parents - they seem miserable and completely powerless. This sucks!

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."

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
