A name given to the messiah of the band geeks, a horde composed mostly of freshmen. Usually a senior band member who held an important position however never understood how to act outside the BAND ROOM. Less this be his undoing and eventual fall from grace!

Dude, we can’t take Pete to lunch. He’s has to watch over his flock in the band room.

I know man he's their leader!

The leader effect

A political and psychological phenomenon where people hate a leader, vote or fight to remove them, then later start wishing they were back in charge — usually after experiencing disappointment with their replacement.

The cycle goes like this:

1. “This leader is awful!”

2. “Let’s get someone better.”

3. “Wait, this is worse.”

4. “Maybe the old guy wasn’t so bad after all…”

5. “We need him back!”

This happens with dictators, presidents, prime ministers — anyone in charge. The Leader Effect is fueled by nostalgia, frustration, instability, and unrealistic expectations.

"Some Iraqis missing Saddam is a clear case of The Leader Effect."

"Voters switching from Trump to Biden, then wanting Trump back shows The Leader Effect."

"After Gaddafi’s fall, Libya went into chaos — The Leader Effect appeared again."

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."
