fast times
Reckless teenage years
Fast times refers to a period of intense, often reckless living—heavy partying, casual sex, substance use, and general hedonism.
The phrase evokes youth culture and its excesses: We had some fast times in college.
It suggests experiences that are thrilling but potentially destructive, lived at an unsustainable pace.
