Could you be kind enough to translate this for me as well "I can't see what's written on the board. she is obstructing my view"?

AL, that's not American slang, that's British slang. You slould remember one thing: all phrasal verbs and expressions with the verb "to piss" are originally British and most of them (except "to piss someone off") are used mostly in the UK.
