Spanish-language expression meaning:
a) Kitchen boy. The guys who clean up the Chef's mess and scrub the frying pans and carry stuff around. In this context it's still used in Spain.
b) In Mexico, it's an all-purpose insult enhancer, which would be roughly equivalent to the use of *fucking* in English. If Jay (Silent Bob's hetero life mate) spoke Spanish, he would say *pinche* A LOT.
Pinche is strongly associated with cursing in Mexican Spanish and the very moment you use it gives you away as a Mexican national. So you pinches gringos take that into account if youre trying to pass for an Argentine or whatever.
c) In Mexico, it's also used as an adjective to describe something as insignificant, lousy, miserable or worthless.

The landlord is going to "pinch" the tenant for not paying rent.
During the recession, lots of people cannot afford their rent, so they are being "pinched."
He is behind on his rent; therefore, he is facing "pinching."
According to some interpretations, the song "Pinch Me" by the "Barenaked Ladies" uses this term with this meaning. The narrarator is unemployed and cannot pay his rent, and he is resigning himself to his inevitable fate of homelessness.
