/Sounds like "peh" (as in "pet") + "DOH" (as in "door") + "rrahs"/
A dismissive insult in Mexico and among Chicanos for someone who is lazy, spineless, or just plain useless. Comes from "pedo" (fart) but it is not that vulgar, it lands more like calling someone a "nobody" or a "loser." You use it to write someone off completely.
“That loser didn't even show up to work today.”
“Stay away from those deadbeats, they will only get you in trouble.”

Hacer la vista gorda
To turn a blind eye, deliberately pretending not to see something wrong and choosing not to intervene. The complicit silence of someone who knows but says nothing.
