Background: Australian. Given to us by Crocodile Dundee:
A spontaneous journey through the wilderness of one's choosing in an effort to satisfy one's itchy feet, a need to be elsewhere, the craving for the open road, that space over the horizon...yes... something like that... you can't quite touch it so you have to go find it because it's you just know it's there...Or maybe it just feels good to go walking around ... :wink: Yeah. It's WALKABOUT.

See "Crocodile Dundee" 1986 starring Paul Hogan.
See me waving 'see ya later' as I disappear over the horizon. :)

Walkabout

A loosely planned journey or goal. Some sort of guidelines which will set you up for an adventure of highs and lows, trials and tribulations. An adventure of discovery filled with wisdom to be ascertained. A Walkabout creates the opportunity to discover the world from your own lens, and is a surefire way to realize your capabilities.

Sometimes I feel pigeonholed into other people's preconceptions of how to live a life. I'm going to go on a Walkabout and figure this shit out with my own point of view.

See 'chockdundee.com'.

wankabout

A short period of wandering bush life engaged in by an Australian aborigine as an occasional interruption of regular work...but with more jerking and less bush.

John was determined to go on wankabout but he was a cripple and his gear no longer worked, rendering the trip absolutely meaningless. The tour company paid for his return trip to Sydney

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."
