A slang Brazilian phrase to describe someone who doesn’t fit in is mais por fora que cotovelo de caminhoneiro. It means “more of an outsider than a trucker’s elbow”

There's also "mais perdido que cego em tiroteio" ("more lost than a blind man in a shooting")

A Brazilian way of saying “it’s not my cup of tea” is isto não é minha praia, or “that’s not my beach.” It’s a relatively recent phrase (last thirty years or so). Before that, the expression closest in meaning was não me fala ao coração, or “that doesn’t speak to my heart”

There are several like that, such as mais perdido que cego em tiroteio (more lost than a blind in a shooting) or mais perdido que cachorro na mudança (more lost than a dog in moving day)

In rio we use "perdidinha/o no pagode"

"estar por fora" in this case, is related to be "unware of specific topic", the correct translation would be "more oblivious than a trucker's elbow"

Do you know the expression “tá chovendo pica e meu cu tá no varal”? It means its rainning dicks and my butthole is upside down in the clothes line 😅

Have you ever heard about "mais por fora do que dedão de franciscano"/"more of an outsider than a Franciscan's thumb"? This one is just because of Franciscan's sandals like this one 😅
