Me He Metido de Todo

Question

Hello everyone!

I wish you all are having a wonderful time!

I read this quote the other day, and I could not understand that exact meaning of the second part (me he metido de todo)

The quote is: "No sé ni cómo sigo vivo, me he metido de todo" Pablo Carbonell

I have tried the dictionary we have here, but it still couldn't help:( I made a guess that it means: "I don't even know why I am still alive, I've given up everything"

Much appreciated!

Answer 1

No, not given up on everything, but rather ' I don't know how 've stayed alive ,I've got into everything// I've tried everything// I'm involved with everything ' Without context I can't do better, at a guess the person has tried drugs, alcohol, or maybe just too many emotional involvements..

"I don't know how I've stayed...." I don't know who Pablo Carbonell is but it seems to me that Keith Richards could say the same. - Jubilado, Apr 6, 2016

Answer 3

Here is my attempt :

"I don't even know how I am still alive, I have gotten involved in everything."

Pablo titubea al hablar y abre los ojos con ese gesto alucinado tan suyo que sólo tiene un adjetivo posible: pablocarbonelliano. Luego le entra la risa, como si aún le sorprendiera su recién descubierto superpoder. «Haga lo que haga, no voy a palmar», insiste. «Me he metido de todo... Me he pegado unas leches tan bestiales en el escenario que mi grupo se ha puesto a tocar la marcha fúnebre... Pero nada: ¡es que no pueden conmigo!».
