Slang: 不吃这一套 Not give a damn


(not)   (eat) (this) 一套 (set of ) 

 

Meaning - Someone doesn't care whatever the other people's pressure or threats on him/her.  It's similar to "Not give a damn" or "Not give a shit" in English.

 

For example:

 

你别吓我,我不吃这一套。(Don’t threaten on me, I don't give a damn.)

 

他不吃这一套,我们要换个方法对付他。(This strategy doesn’t work on him, we need to find another way to deal with him.)
