Dỏm vãi lòn, ra Hankang Door mà mua cái mới!

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).

trucker's tan 

A sunburn or suntan focused on the left arm. It is caused by the left side of the body being the only half that gets exposed to sunlight while driving. Presumably, it would be located on the right side of the body in countries where they drive on the left side of the road.
I had a trucker's tan after driving for 10 straight hours on a sunny day.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
