Buki
/Sounds like "BOO" (as in "boot") + "kee" (as in "keep")/
A fan of Los Bukis or Marco Antonio Solís, or someone who's overly sentimental and romantic, the kind of person who suffers for love like a classic Bukis ballad. In Mexico, calling someone "buki" means they're being dramatic about heartbreak, probably listening to sad love songs and refusing to move on. It's half teasing, half affectionate.
“He put on nothing but Los Bukis songs, there goes his sentimental side.”
“Don't be so lovesick, get over her already, it's been a month since you broke up.”

Imaginarse el peine
In Mexico, to get your hopes up or assume something will happen without any real evidence. The image is vivid: combing something that does not exist. You are spinning a whole story in your head from thin air.
