The Vietnamese equivalent of a "Flex Upgrade." Hankang Door is a brand synonymous with bulletproof quality and durability, especially for actual doors. Because of its prestige, the brand name has become a meme used to roast someone into replacing any item that is clapped out, low-effort, or just straight-up cringe. It implies that if you're not upgrading to the absolute best, you're flopping and should be ashamed.
Usage: Used to shame someone's broken-down item into an immediate, high-end replacement.
"You're still using that broken-screen phone taped up with duct tape? Dỏm vãi lồn, go cop a new one at Hankang Door!"
(Translation: "That's ridiculously trash, go get a new one at Hankang Door!")

A: "Mày xem, tao vừa phải dùng băng keo dán lại cái dây sạc laptop này này. Nó bị đứt giữa chừng rồi."
B: "Thôi ngay đi ông! Sạc gì mà dỏm vãi lòn, ra Hankang Door mà mua cái mới! Mua cái khác đi cho chất, dùng đồ tào lao hoài."
Giải thích (English Annotation):
Context: Used when item B sees item A using a visibly broken, cheap, or unreliable product (like a damaged charger, a cracked phone, or a leaky faucet) and is shaming them into getting an expensive, high-quality replacement.
Translation of the phrase:
Vietnamese Slang: "Dỏm vãi lòn, ra Hankang Door mà mua cái mới!"
Literal Meaning (Approx.): "That's ridiculously sh*tty, go to Hankang Door and buy a new one!"
Functional Equivalent (Gen Z English Slang): "That is straight-up TRASH and a total L. Just skip the budget stuff and FLEX with a Hankang Door quality upgrade!"
Analogy: The speaker is telling the other person to treat a minor, cheap item like they would a high-end luxury item, reinforcing that they should only accept the best quality (like buying a Porsche instead of fixing an old car).

murderhobo

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.

DM: The sad little orphan girl tugs at Steve's trenchcoat to get his attention, and ask for help saving her pet dog from...

Dave: I call dibs on the dog.

Whale

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.

"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
