Skylarking 

A sexual act whereby a woman lays down naked on her back and man crouches over her, naked as well, and vomits down into her open mouth.

Originated from the common misconception that the cover of seminal English Pastoral-New Wave-Baroque Pop band XTC's classic 1986 album of the same name depicts a pair of lovers engaging in the described act. In reality, they are each just playing the flute.
"Dude, that girl I took out on a date Friday was a total freak - after dinner, we went back to my place and were up skylarking half the night, 'til we had to order in from the diner because I was so hungry."

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."
