/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "cheh" (as in "check") + "AHR" (as in "art")/

Meaning

To completely ignore someone, leave them on read, give them zero attention or response. In Puerto Rico, "pichear" is not wasting even a second of energy on someone who does not deserve it. Clean, efficient social dismissal.

Examples

She ignored me all day and then shows up with a good morning like nothing happened.

Just ignore that guy, he is not worth your time.

Today the lefty pitches.

I'll treat you to lunch, don't worry about it.

A street intersection in Mexico where red lights turn the sidewalk into a full scene of urban life. Expect vendors selling snacks, windshield washers, jugglers, and every kind of street hustle you can imagine. It is one of those uniquely Mexican spaces where the city pulses loudest.
