EN: Toxic
Originally means 'poisonous,' but in Pinoy pop culture, it's the go-to word for that one friend who loves drama, that ex who keeps messaging you at 2 AM, or a workplace that makes you want to 'file for immediate resignation.' It's anything or anyone that drains your energy and good vibes. Sila yung mga 'red flag walking.'
From English 'toxic'.
Used extensively in Taglish to describe negative relationships, behaviors, or environments.
