You have not been to Samos 

Legendary phrase used by Greece's Prime Minister to deflect press release questions with regard to the refugee crisis (2021). The phrase is an attempt to gaslight your interlocutor by cancelling their past experience or knowledge of an event, topic, etc. It implies the other person has no idea what they are talking about.
"I am sorry this happen to you. I have been in your shoes before, let me help"
"Get real. There is no way you have handled this sort of situation before"
"Let me show you"
"Just stop it, ok? You have not been to Samos"

Samoan Splash by Cookees February 10, 2020
A person who exemplifies strong dependable qualities, and who is an extremely smart, loyal, interesting, and caring person. Often shy to strangers but extremely talkative to friends, and keeps only a few close ones. This person loves helping others and putting others before themselves. They are also prone to lots of embarrassing and regrettable stories, but a day with them is never boring and they will always enjoy your presence. A great friend to acquire in your life.
Person 1:"Oh that girl never talks, she must be shy."
Person 2: "No I've seen her talk lots... I guess it's only around friends. She must be a Samora."
Person 1: "Yeah, that makes sense. Plus she's in my math class and is super smart."

Samone is gorgeous. Your morning will not be complete until you see her smile. She's nice and hilarious and really smart, and enjoys card games. She has lots of charisma and is the most important person in the room.
Samone is so much more than any someone. I love her so much!

samophlange 

Origin: In the mid 90s, a set of outtakes from the voiceover recording sessions of the popular 80s cartoon Thundercats appeared on the Internet.

Among the very humorous moments in the outtakes is one where the voice actor for Panthro, (the, uh, "soulful" Thundercat) says the following line, "And keep your foot off that blasted Samophlange!" followed quickly by the outtake, "What the F*ck is a Samophlange?!"

Since then, Samophlange has come to be defined as any piece of sensitive technical equipment that may or may not actually exist.

While it is sometimes used in exasperation when a technical glitch can't be explained even by experts, it is more likely to be used as a geeky inside joke at the expense of a newbie, of the same ilk as the ID10T or PEBKAC "errors."

But however you use it, just don't step on it.
<Computer Newbie> "I think my CD-ROM is dead..."

<Smarmy Geek> *sigh* "I sure hope you didn't touch the Samophlange or something.."
