Someone who is clueless, spacey, or completely out of the loop, like their brain is coated in breadcrumbs and nothing can get through. In Argentina, Uruguay, and Chile, calling someone "empanado" means they're slow to catch on, walking around in their own world while everything happens around them.
To feel overwhelmed, stressed, and buried under the weight of responsibilities or problems. When you're agobiado, everything piles up at once and you feel like you can't handle any of it even though you're trying to breathe.
A person who always eats, drinks, and enjoys things for free at everyone else's expense without ever contributing. The professional gorrero shows up wherever there's food and drinks but never brings anything or chips in.
Persona muy torpe con los pies o con el cuerpo en general, que tropieza con todo y no tiene coordinación. En Chile el patadura es ese amigo que no debería jugar fútbol pero igual sale a la cancha.
Deliberately taking time to care for your physical, mental, and emotional well-being. It's the modern practice of prioritizing yourself — from face masks to therapy sessions to just turning off your phone.
