/Sounds like the English word "pelotud" + "eh" (as in "egg") + "AHR" (as in "art")/
To waste time doing dumb stuff and not taking anything seriously in Argentina. Pelotudear is the verb of procrastination mixed with goofing off. When someone tells you to stop, it means get your act together.
“We spent the whole afternoon goofing off doing nothing useful.”
“Stop messing around and get to work already.”

Novela
A dramatic situation that has spiraled into full soap opera territory, with impossible conflicts and unexpected plot twists. Used in Mexico and Central America. When someone says "esto ya se volvió novela," the situation has gone from a normal life problem to something with betrayals, secret revelations, and scenes that belong on primetime TV.
