If you're really really a tought guy and you have to express some biotches you ask someone if he has some 'magandr' for you.
In most cases he doesn't know how to react, because magandr is a fictive word.
He'll just ask you 'what?' and you encounter 'zzzssst' (sounds like the noise a fly creates) and place your fist somewhere it really really hurts.

A common figure in Brazilian culture, the «malandro» is a laid back bad-boy, appreciated as a folk hero of some sort. The football-samba-petty crime type of figure.
The act of being a «malandro», «malandragem», is characterised in the Brazilian popular imagination as a tool for individual justice. Facing the forces of oppressive institutions, the individualist malandro survives by manipulating people, fooling authorities, and sidestepping laws in a way which guarantees his well-being. In this way, the malandro is a typical Brazilian hero. Literary examples include Pedro Malasarte and João Grilo; with a good example of non-Brazilian character being Jimmy McGill.
But the malicious and corner-cutting figure of the malandro does not mean one would be selfish, careless towards others. A malandro doesn't use malandragem to take advantage of another person intending to harm others, but rather only to find a way out of an unfair situation even if this means resorting to illegal methods.
