Portuguese is full of these, but how about vai pra casa do caralho.
Which roughly translates to "go to the dick's home", basically another way of saying "go fuck yourself", but even more vulgar somehow.
Portuguese here. "Diz que vais cagar e baza", which translates to "Say you go shit and get outa here", when someone is not welcome.
Oh, another one: "deves comer gelados com a testa", which translates to "you must eat icecream with your forehead", a not so soft way to call someone stoopid
forehead, not forefront. :)
Brazil "eu caguei e andei" (I shat and walked). Functionally equivalent to "I don't give a shit" but in Portuguese one actually shits but doesn't care to wipe and walks away or walks at the same as is shitting.
