Don't run! I'm not as slimy as all those guys that are always hitting on you.

¡No corras! No soy tan baboso como todos los tipos que siempre te están tirando la onda.

Hilarious. :) - bosquederoble, May 13, 2016

Es verdad, en la gran manzana todo es más grande , hasta los caracoles .

Answer 8

Talk about moving at a snail's pace!

¡Hablando de moverse a paso de tortuga!

(Disclaimer: I know that "snail" is "caracol." but the Spanish idiom requires "totruga.")

A similar expression, "to work like a dog," in Spanish is "trabajar como un burro."

Answer 9

The mutant snail strikes again. El carocol mutante pega otra vez.
