To deliberately respond slowly to an instant message conversation online in an attempt to frustrate, annoy, or make the co-respondent jealous by appearing to be juggling many conversations at the same time or to project the impression of being too busy to reply in a timely manner. This is typically achieved by putting one's phone down and performing other tasks knowing full well the other party to the conversation is hanging on waiting for an immediate reply, and that aforementioned person is edging towards homicidal thoughts towards the instigator.

"I was having a WhatsApp conversation with Mary last night and she slow responsed me throughout the conversation"
"Oh man - that's unforgivable. Ditch the bitch"

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."
