Orange is the new black 

The title of the popular Lionsgate/Netflix television show "Orange is the New Black" was humorously adapted in November 2016 following the U. S.

Donald Trump beat Hillary Clinton in the election...orange is the new black!

orange is the new black 

A Netflix Original series that kicked off in 2013. Season 2 started June 6th at 3am. (I'm watching it now. Js)
Ok so, it's about a woman named Piper Chapman who's in her 30s and is sentenced to 15 months for transporting money for her drug-dealing girlfriend (over a decade ago). While in prison she reconnects with her ex-girlfriend even though she is engaged to Larry. Obviously, she has problems in prison because let's face it, it's fucking prison.

It's actually a really good series, so check it out.

Orange is the new black 

A Netflix original series, and a pretty good one at that. It's funny, but definitely way more lesbian sex than I bargained for.

If you're straight, you'll find yourself drooling over the few men that are actually on the show, like the cop John Bennett, or the main character's fiancé, Larry Bloom. Neither if whom is even that attractive....

Plus with all of the slang they use on the show, you find that you end up using Urban Dictionary way more than usual if you're as slang-illiterate as I am.
"Hey have you seen that new show Orange Is The New Black on Netflix?"

"Yeah. It's pretty funny. Have you?"

"Nah. I'm already subscribed to Lesbian Porn Weekly, so I'm good."

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."
