我爸是李刚 "My dad is Li Gang!"

It's usually used satirically. It's a popular saying in China that has come to symbolize corruption. Specifically, the arrogant notion of some children of the privileged class that their parents' clout shields them from suffering the consequences of their misconduct
Grocery Store Owner: "Hey kid! Pay for that candy bar, or else I'll call the cops!"

Originated from contemporary spoken Hebrew, it defines a situation where an agitated person, most probably with a splitting head-ache, hang-over or before his first morning cofee, is asking another to calm down, don't use verbose sentences, speak slower or not to overload his aching head with issues that requires listening, thinking or focusing.

This phrase, originating from a leading Israeli comedy show, is well curved in contemporary spoken language and it means (in a free translation): - "slow down your shutter, your "homing in" on me in an overloading manner".

Gesture-aware people most often accompany this phrase with an overdramatic facial expression of a person abrupting his 1-hour sleep after having an awful hang-over, by some woody-allen style geek who lightens up the room and asking him if he read about the new star names EL-12141 reently discovered in our solar system.
You have just broken up with your girlfriend, and you have a splitting headache after a long night of non-fruitful pick-up bar road-show, and you have just been awaken your MBA roomate who opens your room windows wide, turns on the music loudly, and tells you in a patronizing voice "look at you, I am going to take care of you. Do you want me to prepare you an organic Soya drink? and then, we can practice some Yoga, and then..."

You then bluntly, with a suffering voice, eyes half-shut,your right hand blocking the rude sunlight coming from the windows, looking at him and, right before falling asleep again, saying "Tsamtsem, ata lo ba-li-tov".

You lied on my name as I did you. I'm in love with the man that you repesented, not who you acted like!
I wanted to taste your tears, feel, your arms, and hear your journ ed evey voice of my life. Only to find out that you were a pure product of a fictitious business of your own ass.

To John doe: You lied years ago about my name, I did. I'm in love with the man you repesented not who you acted like

LI

Stands for 'laughing inside'. It's a variation of lol but due to being shouted at by my boss for being too giggly and distracting I now dont feel I can use lol when speaking to my colleagues over our internal chat program... we must adapt to living in silence.

Black Lies Matter

This is not a one-sided and racist movement like the other BLM, in fact, this BLM is not a movement at all, just a laconic phrase. One of the most infamous Black Lies Matter case is related to O.J. Simpson, his ex-wife Nicole Brown-Simpson and the man who was with her that night, Ron Goldman. Obviously O.J. was pissed off and maybe a bit jealous too 'cause a 25 -year-old walking cock screwed his 35 -year-old ex-wife like a rabbit, the wife-beater himself was at the time 46.
Then O.J. really chimped out by stabbing Goldman and Nicole had been stabbed seven times in the neck and scalp, Chimpson had put the finishing touches on his work by slitting her throat. Despite some Chimpson's attorneys managed to dispose the clothes that O.J. had been used at the time of the murders, plenty of evidence still remained against him - and then the mighty Black-Lies-Matter jury absolved him of these murders.
So if you happen to be famous and black, you can slaughter a couple of honkies without being held responsible for it, 'cause the Black Lies Matter.
