Refers to the seven small contiguous states in the Nort East Region of India: Arunachal Pradesh, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, and Tripura.

The rest of mainland India is only connected to Assam properly; if you have to go to any of the other seven sisters, you need to make a stop at Assam.

Alex: "Any half decent team would be 20-0 after playing the seven sisters of the poor like they have."
Matt: "Well I never!"

seven sisters

The Seven Sisters is the name which was given in 1927 to seven liberal arts women's colleges in the United States (the colleges, themselves, were all founded between 1837-1889). The colleges included Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe, Smith, Vassar and Wellesley. Five of the seven remain women's colleges today and only one (Radcliffe, which merged into Harvard) no longer exists.
Mount Holyoke, Smith College, Bryn Mawr College, and Wellesley College are still women's colleges. Barnard College is still affiliated with Columbia University but remains an independent women's college.
Irene Harwarth, Mindi Maline, and Elizabeth DeBra also state that "the 'Seven Sisters' was the name given to Barnard, Smith, Mount Holyoke, Vassar, Bryn Mawr, Wellesley, and Radcliffe, because of their parallel to the Ivy League men’s colleges.

I applied to Smith and Vassar because I want to go to a seven sisters college.

Seven Sisters

one of many names for the famous Pleiades star cluster located in the constellation Taurus the Bull. Other popular names are the Hoeing Stars, Seven Maidens, the Rosary, M45 (an astronomy catalog designation), and Subaru (that is where the Japanese car company gets its name, "Subaru" is the Japanese name for the star cluster and an emblem depicting the cluster is on every Subaru car). A look thru simple binoculars will reveal much more than seven stars in the star conglomeration.

It's autumn time, the sky is clear, and I can see the Seven Sisters over the Cooks' house. Let's get a closeup view of it all!

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.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...
Steve: I'd like to roll a strength check against strangling the orphan.
Dave: I call dibs on the dog.
DM: You murderhobos disgust me.

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."
