What is '995' mean in Chinese Slang?

This one’s a cry for help. The numbers 9-9-5 sound like "救救我" (jiù jiù wǒ), which means "save me" or "help me." It’s often used humorously when someone’s in a tough spot or overwhelmed, like when they’re drowning in work or stuck in a tricky situation.

Example: If you’re swamped with homework, you might text your friend, "995, I can’t handle this!"

Fun fact: It’s not a real emergency call (that’s 110 in China), so it’s mostly used as a joke.
