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

/Sounds like "pah" (as in "park") + "rrahn" + "DEH" (as in "debt") + "roh" (as in "row")/

Meaning

A total party animal who never misses a good time. First to arrive, last to leave, and if there is no party happening, a parrandero will create one. Common in Colombia, Venezuela, Mexico, Ecuador, and Peru.

Examples

My brother is a full-time party animal, I have no idea when he sleeps.

Ease up on the partying, you have an early shift tomorrow.

A sudden, hard blow or unexpected consequence that hits you by surprise and stings. In Mexico, a "tehuacanazo" is anything that lands without warning: a financial shock, a bad piece of news, or an actual smack. Named after Tehuacan sparkling water, which also hits hard and fast.
