"Bust a gut" nghĩa là gì?

"Bust a gut" = vỡ ruột -> nghĩa là dồn hết sức làm việc, nghĩa khác là cười rất lớn, 'cười vỡ bụng' đó các bạn.

Ví dụ
These interactions (tương tác) between Perry the Platypus and Doofenshmirtz, with Doofenshirtz’s idiotic plans and catastrophic (thảm khốc) failures to execute them, were the funniest part of the original show. In "Candace Against the Universe," Doofenshmirtz again falls into comic mishaps that will make you bust a gut laughing.

This was a man who could bust a gut for 90 minutes, covering more ground (lĩnh vực) than anyone else, yet ensure all the sweat from his endeavours (nỗ lực) was able to concentrate around his face in case he had to dash straight off to a gala dinner or awards presentation upon the final whistle.

Honestly, that's what I loved about it. It's full of what former Citizen Times columnist (người phụ trách) Bob Terrell used to call "good yarns" — colorful tales that really convey what it's like to grow up and live in a place. And these tales usually make you smile, if not outright bust a gut.
