Speed Metal

Speed Metal is not Thrash Metal. Many confuse the two genres. Speed Metal started in the late 70's with bands like Judas Priest and Riot. It's mainly a faster version of traditional heavy metal. while Thrash has a strong hardcore punk influence. I read somewhere someone was saying Megadeth is speed metal. Not True! Speed Metal and Thrash Metal are two completely different genres. While Thrash influenced the more extreme genres, Speed Metal is typically considered more traditional and was around for quite a few years before thrash.

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.
