To beat someone up, throw punches, or engage in a no-holds-barred fight. In Argentina and parts of Latin America, fajarse means throwing down for real — not a scuffle, but a genuine, committed brawl.
Completely out of their mind, absolutely off the wall, or impressively intense beyond the usual scale. Reloco amplifies loco to the maximum — not slightly eccentric, but thoroughly, irreversibly wild.
To have unresolved emotional issues, traumas, or psychological burdens that affect one's relationships and well-being. It's about carrying emotional baggage, having unprocessed feelings or experiences that weigh you down and impact your interactions with others.
Someone with shocking nerve — the audacity to ask for things or do things that normal people would be too embarrassed to attempt. Cara de palo (wooden face) is the person who shows up unbothered after doing something outrageous.
A slap across the face with an open hand. A cachetada hurts less than a closed fist but carries more humiliation — it's theatrical, personal, and impossible to forget regardless of which side of it you're on.
