Definition
Vietnamese
Người có một số hành vi tiêu cực nhẹ — chưa đến mức phá hủy mọi thứ nhưng thỉnh thoảng gây khó chịu, ích kỷ hoặc không ý thức về ảnh hưởng của mình.
English
Mildly toxic — someone with some problematic behaviors that occasionally bother or affect others, but not a full-on destructive force. Lightly draining rather than catastrophic.
Legacy note: Hơi passive-aggressive nhưng chưa full red flag.
How it's used: Used sarcastically to mock or needle someone.
Example
Vietnamese
“Bạn ấy người toxic nhẹ thôi, hay than vãn nhưng không cố ý.”
