Guate es Calida'

Translation:
What is Chapín?

They say that Chapines were some smug collectors of the colonial times and from there was coined the term "gentilicio". Others that it came from the (soft) gina shoes "chapinas". But the truth is that "chilero" is also "chapín" and "chapín" is being "chilero". "chuchitos", "chirmol", "chilero" o "chingon". "chapín" is getting jokes out of our situation and being happy with out reality because we sweat happiness. Chapin is "chulear" (flirt) with whistling. Being "chambon" because we try and "chispudos" (erudites) because we know what we do. It's that spark that characterizes us and at leagues it is noticeable in the pair of "chibolas" of eyes that we "pelamos". But, that yes, "chulos" since "chirices". That's how my aunt used to say. Ahhh! and of everything we are owners. Ahhh some of my tortillas some of my "chancletas", notice yourself. We were born in a blessed land. We are "chambeadores" by nature. And simplicity is our beauty. Instead of saying you we say "vos" and to call "vos" we say PSST, PSST but put attention since "chapín" you are and no one takes that from you. "Chilero" always born in spring with the spark of "fregadera". "chulo" is being "chapín" "mucha" because Guate is "calida'"

The alternate and antonym definition is chaw-pín (Khaw-peen)which is a neologism from the hebrew charam (Khaw-Ram').

2763. charam (khaw-ram')

A primitive root; to seclude; specifically (by a ban) to devote to religious uses (especially destruction); physical and reflexive, to be blunt as to the nose -- make accursed, consecrate, (utterly) destroy, devote, forfeit, have a flat nose, utterly (slay, make away).

Chapin, SC

A small town sitting on the edge of Lake Murray and right outside of Columbia. Contains two stop lights and 7 billion churches/graveyards (in which to play hide and seek at night in). Those who live here are generally rich and their daddies and mommies buy them big fancy cars. There is nothing to do in this small town, so partying is a huge problem here. Some people aren't rich in this town, and the richies make fun of them. If you don't live on the lake, have a boat/jetski, or know how to swim, you're not welcome here.
-What do guys in South Carolina where?

-Well, guys in Chapin, SC wear Rainbows, Bright Polos, and Khaki Cargo shorts.

-That's embarrassing.

chapin girls

Chapin girls are very intelligent. Don't believe anything you hear from those brearley girls that are just jealous. Brearley girls actually have time to watch Amerca's Next Top Model and watch their person pose for pictures; Chapin girls, on the other hand, don't have time to watch this show and are using their time wisely studing for tests.
Chapin girls are intelligent, strong, and good-looking.
