Used a lot in Mexico for kids but probably translates best as brats. Likely derived from iztcuintli, the Nahuatl word that names Mexico's poodle size almost hairless dog. Many Nahuatl words have entered Mexican Spanish like this, there 'tl' changed to the 'cl', the longer 'i' (ee) to the shorter 'e' (eh) more easily pronounced today. Used today in easy movement between English and Spanish in US Mexican communities...
¡Ya escuincles! ¡Dejen de chingar!

Enough brats! Stop fucking around! (or more likely, bothering us).

Power Couple 

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.
I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.
