School Yard Polling

The act of inflicting pain to a male by forcing the genitalia to come into contact with a free standing upright object usually a flag pole or car park bollard. This is best achieved by 4 people holding on to each of the victims appendages’ i.e. two arms and two legs and carrying said victim (horizontal to the ground) to the site of punishment. Once at the pole or bollard, the victims legs are then spread apart to the extent that the pole or bollard can be fit between the victims legs and the crotch area can now come into contact with object. Best results are achieved when the victim is lifted off the ground and swung horizontally by the arms and legs so that the crotch is bashed repeatedly against the pole or bollard.

Polling the electorate

To have sex, usually with a stripper.

From season 8, episode 3 of The Simpsons "Separate Vocations" the euphemism is used in regards to Mayor Quimby having sex with a mistress in a motel room.

Later used in season 3, episode 1 of Supernatural "The Magnificent Seven" in reference to Dean Winchester having sex with a stripper or strippers. It does not mean to suck dick, Destiel shippers.

That's mayor Quimby's car. Tonight, his honor is, heh, polling the electorate.

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.

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."
