poly overshare 

The necessity and compulsion to share every single fucking thought or emotion with polyamorous partners, for the purpose of avoiding the minor miscommunications or misunderstandings that may not complicate a monogamous relationship, but which may snowball when there are three or more people involved.

Will cause poly relationships to develop at a ridiculous pace, as nothing is ever kept to one's self. Will also seem really, really crazy sometimes.
Omg I'm sorry I was a little distant just now; I was worried I might feel a little neglected eventually, even though I'm not feeling that way at all right now. I was just imagining how it might feel some day. Also, I kind of resent you for that eventuality.

Fuck, that was quite the poly overshare, huh.

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."
