To get hammered / to drink yourself silly
Ele chapou o coco na festa e só foi pra casa de manhã.
He got hammered at the party and only went home in the morning.
Coco is colloquial Brazilian Portuguese for the head — the same playful "coconut for noggin" image found in many languages — and chapar means to flatten, squash, or knock flat. Chapar o coco thus pictures drink hitting you until your head is flattened, i.e. getting thoroughly hammered. The related slang chapado ("smashed, high") comes from the same verb.
