Metempsychosis or Reincarnation

Recently reminded of this phrase in one of the Hong Kong series, "赶住去投胎啊?" (pronounced as "kon chue hoeh tou toi ah")

We, highly educated people, should speak in a more refined language, "rushing to be reincarnated ah?"or "rushing to go through metempsychosis ah?"

So, the next time someone honks at you, you should shout, "rushing to be reincarnated ah?"
So, the next time someone cuts queue, you should shout, "rushing to go through metempsychosis ah?"

Disclaimer : That is provided you know how to pronounce "METEMPSYCHOSIS" or "Reincarnated". If not, I suggest you to go back to ""赶住去投胎啊?" since the number of pronunciation key are the same, 5, without the 啊.
