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.

A very bubbly person, and so beautiful. Caring too. She gets a lot of attention, but she doesn't even realize it, which is something amazing about her. She's sometimes in her own little world, and everyone wants to be a part of that. She always seems happy. Cute and tiny. Pinching her lovely and adorable cheeks would result in an extremely adorable/cute shy and embarrassed smile that you've GOT to do it. She's very fun & funny. It's always a pleasure to be around her. She can handle any situation well, and knows how to plan. Has a way of talking to people. She's spontaneous and can be crazy, but in a good way! She's honest and very loyal, which people love about her. She's easy to get along with, and a smiley person. She has a great personality that everyone loves. If you're facing a problem, she'll jump at the chance to help you, without expecting anything in return. She’ll forgive you VERY easily. You should consider yourself very lucky if Leena loves you, because she's very unique in every possible way. Leena's man is/would be the luckiest man on earth, because she truly is a treasure. She's the whole package!
