Slang English-Japanese

[SkaKid0911]

Hey guys. A japanese pen-pal of mine wants to know some english slang, so I'm trying to make a list. I'm not sure if I did it right though. Because my japanese isn't great, I might have translated some stuff wrong. Also I used a lot of kanji so there wouldn't be any mix-ups. Could someone tell me if I translated it right, used to much kanji, and also add to the list with anything you can think of. Thanks. Also, do you think I should translate the example sentences.
The format is:

English Slang (literally: meaning)
Meaning of Slang: slang meaning
Example sentences (I tried to keep them short, but in contexts they'd really be used in)

Konnichiwa SkaKid0911-san!

Old days when I read English site in US for the first time, I am very surprised
because there are a lot of word "Cool!". "Cool" is "Samui" in Japanese and "Samui" is an insult word(slang) that means "dull" or "unexciting".
"Cool? do it means an unexciting? why?"
But I noticed truth meaning soon.

"Cool" is "Samui" in Japanese, but you must not say "Samui" instead of "cool". It is an insult slang in Japan.


Correction

卑言の趣意：1. イケてる、さいにろ

"卑言" is "言葉" and "さいにろ" is "さいこう" correctly.

Thank you very much Nangi! I never knew "samui" in japanese was slang for "dull".
