[pocaracas]

LOL... yes, there is such a place.
No, it's not based on that place's name.
It's based on a portuguese word: caraças (the ç reads like ss, but I chose not to include non-ASCII characters because... the internet was young and full of terrors, back when I made it)

hehe so what does it mean then?

Wouldn't you want to know?
The word is the plural of caraça, which usually means "mask".
But, however, in this particular expression, "vai para o caraças", shortened to "p'ó caraças" in verbal discourse, it means... some place nasty. Never gets a proper definition, just a vague enough one for the expression to be slang, but one of the milder forms of slang.
You can say it in front of kids, but not write it down in any form of formal document.
In english, you'd use it in the same sort of situations as you use a "go to hell", or a "go F*** yourself" or something similar...
