Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "pee" (as in "pea") + "KOHN" (as in "coat")/

Meaning

Someone who takes offense easily and cannot handle even mild teasing. In Mexico and Guatemala, a picón gets disproportionately upset at the smallest provocation and is the person in the group everyone has to tiptoe around.

Examples

Don't say anything about his hair, he gets offended super easily.

Don't be so sensitive, it was just a harmless joke!
