/Sounds like "CHOOM" (as in "choose") + "peh" (as in "pet")/
A turkey (the bird), and by extension an insult for someone who acts without thinking. In El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras, chumpe is the local word for the bird called guajolote in Mexico or pavo in Spain. Calling someone a chumpe means they are being a clueless, brainless fool.
“Don't be a chumpe, think before you sign that.”
“Don't give that job to that idiot, he'll ruin it.”

Morbo
That dark, twisted attraction to things that should repel you: the morbid curiosity that makes you slow down at an accident or read every detail of a disturbing story. In Spain, morbo also describes sexual chemistry with an edge of the forbidden. Not quite wrong, but definitely not innocent.
