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

/Sounds like "reh" (as in "red") + "behn" (as in "bed") + "TAH" (as in "tar") + "doh" (as in "door")/

Meaning

A total party animal who lives from one event to the next, or someone who shows up completely wrecked the next day after going all out the night before. In Mexico and Colombia it describes both the lifestyle of nonstop going out and the destroyed aftermath: no sleep, no regrets.

Examples

He showed up to the office completely wrecked, you could tell he hadn't slept.

He's a total party animal, every weekend you find him at a different club.

Regional synonyms

A person who puts on airs of importance without anything to justify it. In Venezuela the mamavaca acts like they own the place and struts around with grandeur when there's nothing really behind it.
