    Pendejo?

    I was watching Prison Break (fave tv show) Monday and a couple of the guys were disagreeing about something. They wanted the Latin guy to do something he didn't think he should have to do & he called one of them a pendejo. What does that mean? I searched on this site but most of them had way...
