Platform Pirate 

One who against all medical advice and common sense decides to not just lift weights at the gym, but instead decides to lift ALL of them. Platform pirates are often spotted on the platform with red faces, bulging neck veins and a general sense of pissed-off-ness not just at the impossibility of lifting the weight, but of the world.
Person A: Hey Schmicky! Look over there, that f***er is making away with all our weights like a drunken sailor making off with wenches.
Person B: That's not a sailor, that's a f***ing Platform Pirate! Don't f*** with him, he's on a mission!

platforming strawmen 

Pretty much how the internet started to work once it was accepted that you can kick out people that don't agree with you from your online community. As a result of a culture of 'de-platforming' and censorship, what actually started to happen was that people started to platform "strawman" - intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat rather than engaging with an opponent's real argument - instead.
"Internet today is just a bunch of platforming strawmen"

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."
