NO, YOU'RE NOT FEELING ME. SOMETHING MORE FRATERNAL, LIKE WHEN A JEW CALLS ANOTHER JEW A SCHMUCK OR A PUTZ.
"Ah, call him a pendejo."
He was not really clear on what that meant, and at some latter point, I was told that pendejo referred to the tiny hairs in your butt crack.
CARE TO WEIGH IN ON THIS, Senor Carlos?
Chip, I had no idea pendejo had anything to do with any kind of hairs, so I looked it up. This is what I came up with:
"The word pendejo comes from a Latin root meaning “pubic hair.” In 16th-century Spain, pendejo was apparently first used to describe pubescent teens who thought they were adults—you know, because they had pubes. In the 17th century, pendejo came to mean “coward,” a mocking or taboo reference."
In the real actual world, it means stupid or sucker, you know, like Trumptin voters.
But, depending on how you say it, it can be sort of friendly, especially if you tell somebody "no seas pendejo".
By the way, if you want to type ñ on a computer press the Alt key and type 164. For Ñ it's Alt-165. I'm sure you know how to do it on a smartphone.
