A suck-up or brown-noser, someone who flatters the boss or anyone in power just to get on their good side. In Mexico, calling someone "barbero" means they're always saying what people want to hear, bringing coffee, laughing at bad jokes, doing whatever it takes to score favors. It comes from "hacer la barba," which literally means to shave someone's beard but figuratively means to butter them up.

A distracted, absent-minded person who's got their head in the clouds without paying attention to anything. In Mexico and Chile, volado describes someone who lives in another world.

An extreme hangover, the kind that leaves you unable to move from bed or even look at light. It's the amplified version of "cruda" (the standard Mexican word for hangover), reserved for those mornings when you really, truly overdid it the night before. If cruda is a hangover, crudota is a hangover that feels like it might actually kill you.

Something that's been used so much it lost its charm or value. When a joke, song, or trend gets repeated to death, nobody cares anymore and it only provokes total boredom.
