No "crunk"? Good.

― Dom Passantino, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:01 (nineteen years ago)

i like sozzled

― blueski, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:02 (nineteen years ago)

Voted "three sheets"

― Dom Passantino, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:03 (nineteen years ago)

No kalied, no credibility.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:04 (nineteen years ago)

'tired and emotional'

― James Mitchell, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:04 (nineteen years ago)

I don't know how widespread kalied is tho. It only sounds right in a Black Country accent.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:05 (nineteen years ago)

Blootered is another good one that's not there.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:05 (nineteen years ago)

"stocious" "blootered", you can't beat the Scots for inventing words for being pished. (ha xpost)

I've heard kalied used up here.

― ailsa, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:06 (nineteen years ago)

"wankered"
"pished"
"brahms"

― snoball, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:06 (nineteen years ago)

"bladdered"

― snoball, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:06 (nineteen years ago)

Oh god yeah pished too, I use that one all the time.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

awake

― carne asada, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

"blasted"

― snoball, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:07 (nineteen years ago)

Hammered is a good one.

I prefer the Scottish "pished" to "pissed".

bladdered, buckled and the brilliant stocious also missing.

― onimo, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:08 (nineteen years ago)

You guys are doing nothing for my resolve not to go out and get kalied tonight.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:08 (nineteen years ago)

is slashed used more than smashed?

― Roz, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:22 (nineteen years ago)

"on a bun" but no "sauced"?

― chicago kevin, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:34 (nineteen years ago)

"half cut"

― onimo, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:36 (nineteen years ago)

Addled, blotto and flat-out fucked.

― NickB, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:37 (nineteen years ago)

arseholed

― ken c, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:37 (nineteen years ago)

STEAMING

― ailsa, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:38 (nineteen years ago)

lashed

but i'd vote for "wankered" if it was on the list

― TTTTTTT, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:38 (nineteen years ago)

No "fucked up"? That's fucked up.

― Nubbelverbrennung, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:39 (nineteen years ago)

Hongroed.

― Noodle Vague, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:45 (nineteen years ago)

already noted but no "smashed"? rly?

― sleep, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:47 (nineteen years ago)

Bevvied? Seriously, not enough Scottishisms here - we did invent getting pished, after all.

― ailsa, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:48 (nineteen years ago)

What a stupidly long choice of options. Can we have a "what's your favourite word in the dictionary" poll next?

― Mark C, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:50 (nineteen years ago)

I'm also boycotting this poll due to the lack of "wankered"

― Colonel Poo, Friday, 19 October 2007 13:51 (nineteen years ago)

another vote for sozzled.

but also "cunted" pls.

― Upt0eleven, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:29 (nineteen years ago)

Do you use different euphemisms for getting drunk and getting High On Drugs y/n

― DJ Mencap, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:31 (nineteen years ago)

A lot of these don't describe the same kind of drunk. buzzed vs hammered.

― Dr Morbius, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:32 (nineteen years ago)

or tipsy vs slaughtered
good point that.

― TTTTTTT, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:34 (nineteen years ago)

why only "half-cut", and does that mean only partially drunk? if so why not "full-cut", or just "cut"

― TTTTTTT, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:35 (nineteen years ago)

i'm sure we had a thread on this but i can't find it

― ken c, Friday, 19 October 2007 14:53 (nineteen years ago)

SFW, the lighter SW, and the rarer "fill me in on what happened last night" SMFW.

― Kerm, Friday, 19 October 2007 18:34 (nineteen years ago)

I usually say "dranked" or "slossled," mebbe could do some pseudo-rhyming sland and call it "Tom Sossled."

― Abbott, Friday, 19 October 2007 18:41 (nineteen years ago)

ripped (out of your tree)? hammed? pickled? done? done for? embalmed? orsoned? filled with the light of jesus?

― Will M., Friday, 19 October 2007 18:50 (nineteen years ago)

okay i made three of those up right now, but still.

― Will M., Friday, 19 October 2007 18:52 (nineteen years ago)

Sarkozy bourré ridiculise la France au G8.

― daria-g, Friday, 19 October 2007 19:07 (nineteen years ago)

he later said he wasn't drunk, he had just run up a flight of stairs because he was late -- i believe him actually, it's exactly the kind of hyperactive, ridiculous rule-following thing he would do

― Tracer Hand, Friday, 19 October 2007 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

also, he doesn't drink at all

― Tracer Hand, Friday, 19 October 2007 19:20 (nineteen years ago)

Also, "crunk"

― The Reverend, Friday, 19 October 2007 19:51 (nineteen years ago)

My favorites are missing:

"Legless"

and "in a state of advanced refreshment".

― Alex in NYC, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:17 (nineteen years ago)

no "burly," no cred

― kenan, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:25 (nineteen years ago)

I have a friend who once said "My Guinness is activating."

I hit him in the face.

― BIG HOOS aka the steendriver, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:32 (nineteen years ago)

That wasn't very sporting of you.

― Alex in NYC, Friday, 19 October 2007 21:33 (nineteen years ago)

my favorite euphemism for drunk is "hoosed"

― J0rdan S., Friday, 19 October 2007 21:34 (nineteen years ago)
