Challenging one to finish one's drink, in Hokkien literally meaning "No finish no balls".

Usually shout this loudly prior to getting everyone to drink.

You can also shout this at the person who is last to finish the drink.

Probably the best gay ship ever it's a cannon thing too Alexander Hamilton and John Laurens were practically dating Alexander Hamilton and John Laurens were the lgbtq icons of the 1700s and it actually was a real thing so that makes it even better (and the sentence is a real interaction between me and my friend)
Me: have you heard about lams before

Friend: why must you be so Hamilton obsessed

Me: just answer the question!!

Friend: okay no I haven't but I know it's probably something Hamilton related

Me: it's only one of the most truest things in Hamilton

Friend: why are you like this

Me: it's the ship between John and Alexander

Lam

The most stunning girl with intense emotions and dreams. She is strong yet sensitive and loving yet cold. She must be with the right people or right person to completely show her true self. She cares about her appearance because it scares her to be utterly and truly vulnerable to the world around her. Take care of her, keep her warm and safe, for she can disintegrate between your fingertips in less than a minute.
Oh Lam? The only person who kept me in one piece. I could never forget such a warm soul.
