cool case

Being a loan word derived from the Dutch word "koel kast" with this same meaning, this word is what Indonesians thought to be the English of what is akcually called "fridge" (refrigerator) in English.

I store food in the cool case to keep it fresh.

grocery

An item that can be easily obtained with sufficient money and a travel to the nearest grocery store. This contrasts with the elusive nature of acquiring additional screen time from parents, which often lacks a specific method or location.

While the grocery store is just a short trip away, negotiating for extra screen time feels like an uphill battle.

-ception

"Inception" is a slang term named after the 2010 movie about "a dream within a dream," originally meaning the establishment or starting point of an institution or activity. Now also gives birth to the suffix "-ception", indicating layering, nesting, or recursion.

The whole idea of 'selfie-ception' just makes me laugh; it’s selfies of people taking selfies!

Ian

Another name often associated with someone "unlucky" enough to be compared to durian, leading to awkward moments whenever they enter places where durian is prohibited.

Every time Ian walks into a restaurant, someone jokes about durian being banned—poor guy can't catch a break!

e-book

The digital or online version of a printed book, often less familiar to physical book enjoyers due to stricter screen time limits imposed by parents. Unlike physical books, e-books can be subject to more scrutiny in households that prioritize limiting screen time durations.

I wanted to read an e-book, but my parents said I had to stick to physical books because of my screen time limits.

chimichanga

The ability to watch (or publicly exhibit) the movie Deadpool, often referring to the freedom to enjoy its uncensored content without restrictions — inspite of the amount of excessive violence, nudity, and graphic language on it.

Finally got the chimichanga for Deadpool—can’t wait to see all the wild scenes everyone’s been talking about!

push

Not exactly the sound of a cat meowing, but "push" becomes another slang term for "cat" as cats respond to us saying "push".

Every time I call my she-cat by saying 'push,' she comes running like she knows it's snack time!
