I heard the word "poha" (or something) being yelled constantly throughout the picture. Anyone know what it means?

"What's that smell?"

The correct word is "Porra" which means "Damn it", *beep* or Literally means "Sperm".

Thanks man! I recognized that word from some Sepultura lyrics too!

The literal translation is cüm but "porra" is basically a generalized expletive that you can use pretty much whenever you're angry or surprised or even happy.

"Damn" is identical in meaning if not an exact translation.

Something like *beep*
