tangping 

A Mandarin word, "躺平", literally means "to lie down" , which is widely used on social media and among young people. The word has indifferent connotations.
Tangpingers give up fighting for a better life like they used to. They are in total submission to the status quo and they willingly lower their aims, wishes and even expenditures.
They have no more unrealistic expectations, illusions, pressure or interest in real life. No more ambitions, craving for success, struggle, resistance or fear. They try to be a normal person and chillax.

All they want to do is to lie down, to "tangping" and do nothing. They aren't cooperative and they don't give a F*CK to other people's opinions or blames.
Tangpingers scorn the behaviour of fleecing and milking the Masses by devious capitalists and speculators, which always try to play the young people for sucker.
So no more Pie-in-the-Sky or brainwashing. Either you pay me decent money to get the job done, or I choose to "tangping" and you get nothing.
They try to find the inner peace, happiness and balance, let go of themselves from enormous burdens, pressure and baseless accusations and focus on themselves only.
Tangpingism is a peaceful "demonstration" and non-cooperation movement against social inequalities, exploitation, elitism and meaningless competitions of any kind.
A: Jacob, What the f*ck are your doing? Why are you sitting around? Don't you have a work to do?
B: Boss, I'm tired and I just want to tangping, so f*ck the work.

A: My god, the house price keeps rocketing up, when can I afford an apartment of my own?
B: With your current salary, maybe 100 years later you can get one.
A: Aren't you worried about that?
B: Nuh-uh, I know I can't afford it, so f*ck it, I'm gonna tangping.

dude all the definitions of tangina in this website is wrong except for one. what it really means is- the word "tangina" is derived from the full word "putangina" which means "puta (whore/slut)" and "ina (mother)". when the word putangina is directly translated into english, it's "motherfucker". However, though it can be used in the same context in how english speakers use motherfucker, the word "putangina/tangina" is used as a vulgar expression in context similar to "fuck you" in english. For example:

hope this helps clarify things. we also change its spellings based on how we feel like spelling it. mostly it's just spelled how it sounds. like puta - pota, putangina mo - potaenamo/ potaena mo, etc.
when you're angry: tangina!

in english: fuck!

when you're angry at someone: tangina mo!
in english: fuck you!

when you're surprised: hala tangina! or uy tangina!
in english: what the fuck! oh shit!

when you're sad: tangina...
in english: shit... fuck....

when you're confused: tangina?
in english: what the fuck?

filipino (in context to referring someone's mom; usually used by elders since they take words for what they really mean): putangina ka!
in english: you're a motherfucker!

filipino (in context where you could also refer to someone's mom but you don't really mean it): putangina
in english: motherfucker!

filipino (in context where it's an expression): pota! putangina! tangina!
in english: fuck! fucking hell! fucking shit!

filipino (in context where it's an expression directed at someone): pota ka/ potacca/ potaka/ puta ka! putangina mo/ putanginamo/ putaena mo/ potaena mo/ potaena ka/ potaenaka
in english: fuck you!

Tagging my pixel 

Is used to mean that one has had a rather unsatisfying orgasm. It felt good at the time, but was rather rubbish when looked at retropectively.
Bob: I had a terrible night last night
Frank: What happened?
Bob: I was doing cybersex with Jannet and I just ended up tagging my pixel
Frank: Bummer!
