Ringling College of Art and Design 

An art college located in Sarasota, FL. They offer the highest quality art and design education and degree. Other majors include "Business of Art and Design", "Digital Film" and "Motion Design" (but noone knows wtf that is). Student population is approximately 75% self-proclaimed artist stereotypes 15% asians who are waaay too talented 10% rich kids who thought they were going to have it easy studying art with Mom and Dads money (but then get upset when they realize they get nailed from studio classes) 80% genuine young artist who want to get a degree in something they love 5% Guys who wear very tight pants

Other than that, everyone is up to their nose in debt and the students deal with mood swings and laugh attacks due to excessive sleep depravation. Every teacher believes his/her class is a priority. Everyone knows everyone. And you NEVER walk down MLK alone.

It one of the top 5 art colleges in the nation and world-wide.

An Important factor of this language is using XD after every sentence and obviously add the straight guy laughing emoji.
Rinki: "Rosa ignore me , she no talk with me like with other one"
Superlemon:" Omg I wish I could speak Rinklish."
Rosa: "You so cool I'm wanna cool as you is XD"

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."
