wikiganda
A portmanteau of Wikipedia and propaganda, wikiganda is what issues from the O’Sullivan’s Law-subsumed online encyclopedia that ostensibly "anyone can edit", but which in practice is a thought-policed lie-factory peddling establishment narratives.
"When a CNN or a FOX News bimbette reads some bullshit off her teleprompter, you don't buy it for a second, because yer smart, right? But when the same thing is written in Wikipedia with CNN or FOX as the 'reliable source', your dumb brain will eat it up with a spoon. And the garbage will sit there for years, waiting patiently like poison in an unlabeled container. That's the power of wikiganda."

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.
