It's probably "pendejo"
Pendejo is etymologically related to the Latin pectiniculus, meaning pubic hair or anal hair. It may be translated as asshole in many situations, though it carries an extra implication of rank and willful incompetence.
In Mexico, Central and Northern South America, pendejo refers to a stupid person (as some may observe that anal hair is inundated with feces) although it is a much stonger word in Mexico and Central America than it is in Panama, where, while still impolite, it is not as offensive, specially among younger people. In Peru it means a person who gains benefits from an advantageous situation in an immoral manner. In South America pendejo is also a vulgar, yet inoffensive word, for children. It also signifies a person with a disorderly or irregular life. In Puerto Rico it has different meanings depending on the situation. It can range from "Te cogieron de pendejo!" = "You were fooled!" (e.g. by a conman), to "Qué tipa pendeja!" = "What a *****!" (e.g. when some unknown woman unexpectedly offends you with no apparent motive, and just leaves turning her back on you). In Mexico and some countries of Central America, especially El Salvador, "una pendejada" is used to describe something incredibly stupid that someone has done.

It is pendejo. If you look in the dictionary you will find it like pubic hair.
Sometimes it is used to name a person that permit others abuses of him and do not defend himself. (Fool)
When you are angry you can also say it like an asshole.
Or if you do a stupid joke someone can tell you that.
I advise you no telling anybody like that because they can be offended, but sometimes when we are in a group of friends, specially men, you could say it to somebody else like you are stupid.
