scrannit 

With a similar etymology to scratter, scrannit comes from the middle slanglish, scranwert, with a similar definition to the above.

However, the more correct usage is to employ the above to describe a female or females who at first glance appear to be highly presentable, but will then endeavour to give you a virulent sexual infection due to their scratter traits and slack flaps, honed by watching endless editions of Trisha and shagging the milkman.

This should not be confused with deceiver as the said scranit may still look attractive from a shorter distance, though may have tell-tale scratter markings.

In the West Midlands scran is also used for the same, but amusingly confusing northern speakers who maintain that they would still want to eat it.
It's all right from here, but you wouldn't want to go with it, it's a real scrannit

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."
