The Theory of Relative Hottness 

The theory that states that one judges a guy/girl's hottness by comparing him/her to those around them. This explains why one would think someone is hotter when seen at, say a movie theater, than at school. There are fewer to compare them to.
Guy 1: Dude, that girl that goes to your school is really hot.
Guy 2: Naw, that's the theory of relative hottness. At school she's not that hot.

relative hotness 

The phenomenon where a member of the opposite sex (or same sex for homosexuals) seems increasingly attractive due to a lack of attractive people within certain surroundings.

For example, while at work one may begin to think that the girl sitting two cubes over is hot, when in all actuality she is not. This perception of hotness is based solely on the fact that she is the only female in the office under 60 and/or under 300 lbs. Outside of the office, she would not stand a chance to an actual hot or cute girl.
Dude, relative hotness is kicking in bad.. I wouldn't mind gettin' a piece of that big girl on the other end of the conference room table.

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."
