When you use a surname that you know isn't yours. You are given the name via a fake birth certificate to hide history, and the fact your "dad" isn't "your dad", but you go along with it to stay in good with your "chequebook dad"

Muzza is such a Pretend Murray he had it tattoo'd down his leg, and gave the name to his son who is now also a Pretend Murray. Spoon fed family lies are awful tastier than the truth huh?

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.

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."
