"Piocha" - "A todo mecate"
Hello, everyone.
Let me recall some old expressions already forgotten: "Piocha"------the grandpas used this phrase while clenching one fist under the chin, like caressing an imaginary beard. They meant cool, great, wonderful. "A todo mecate"....the old people used this as a non very rude way to say "A toda madre"( f----cking awesome ). They also used "A todo meter". Nowadays, the "fresas" (yuppies) use the expression "pocamadre". |
