"Gua Ruoxi" is usually used to describe a person who is stupid, dumb, slow or lacks intelligence, and sometimes it also means that the person is a bit silly or not smart.
While "ha poking and prodding" emphasizes the clumsiness and inflexibility of a person's behavior, which is often manifested as slowness and stupidity in movement or speech, and sometimes carries a certain degree of ridicule or sarcasm.
It's important to note that both of these words are pejorative and should be used with care to avoid causing unnecessary harm.
