EN: to burn out (light bulb); to get exasperated
This is you after your 5th Zoom meeting of the day, or when the internet dies during your Netflix finale. Literally, it's for a lightbulb that gives up on life. Figuratively, it's when your patience bar hits zero and you're about to rage-quit. 'Konting-konti na lang, mapupundi na ako.'
From Spanish 'fundir' (to melt, to blow a fuse).
