Tauntauns are a species of snow lizard found roaming the windswept snow plains of Hoth. The Rebel Alliance domesticated the swift creature during their stay on the ice planet, and used the animals for patrol duties outside Echo Base. The animals came in useful as the Rebel technicians had difficulty adapting their repulsorlift speeders to the subzero temperatures.

Both Luke Skywalker and Han Solo rode tauntauns on Rebel patrol missions, planting a network of life-form sensors along Echo Base's perimeter. Though tauntauns are sure-footed and well equipped to handle Hoth's daytime temperature, the chilling extremes of a Hoth night will prove deadly.

Twant

Part twat and part cunt - a twant is someone behaving in a manner that is both stupid AND bitchy.

Twant - someone so full of themselves that they aren't aware they are actually stupid. But they are aware they are bitchy and enjoying being that way for no reason. While it may more frequently apply to women, men can also behave as twants.

tauntillate

It is when you taunt someone in a titillating way. I.e. Taunt someone with your genitals.

That girl sure knows how to tauntillate a guy. I was so tautillated when she wagged her sexy Khaki clad legs at me and said "you Can't have none"

french taunt

The greatest insult known to man kind. You give someone the french taunt by going: You don't frighten us, English pig-dogs! Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called Arthur-king, you and all your silly English kaniggets. Thppppt! I don't want to talk to you no more, you empty headed animal, you food trough whopper! I fart in your general direction! You mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries. Now go away or I shall taunt you a second time-a!

However, it is better to simply say: "I give you the french taunt."

After a insult fight, Bob had trouble coming up with a comeback, so he pulled his trump card: the french taunt.

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."
