Join Hablaaa and add the expression no one else has documented.

/Sounds like "dehs" (as in "debt") + "trahm" (as in "tract") + "PAH" (as in "park") + "doh" (as in "door")/

Meaning

Someone who is completely out of control, doing everything without limits or any thought about consequences. In Mexico, a destrampado parties way too hard, drinks way too much, or dives into everything recklessly, like they have no off switch and no brakes whatsoever.

Examples

Yesterday he was totally out of control, drank like ten beers and caused a whole scene.

Stop being so reckless, calm down before things go sideways.
