    A Look at the language of drinking, or precisely of being drunk

    Hi all

    Yes I have been researching words used to describe being drunk.. an eye opener

    Drunk.. mmm still according to society.... a neutral word
    Canned - Implies being impaled or held without your will
    Loaded - A gun ?
    Obliterated - As in never to be again
    Shit faced - No explaination necessary
    Stewed - Boiled meat?
    Wasted - we are doing this to the planet, please not ourselves
    Smashed - broken, right?
    Hammered
    - the hammer is dangerous and can do damage
    Out of it
    - the world as it is, we should all be onto it it, into it.. for sure not out of it
    Bombed
    - still used for being drunk, inappropriate .. or what...
    Blind/Blacked out
    - even worse


    The only words I could find that were marginally
    positive about being drunk were:

    Buzzed
    - like a bee?, sounds nice but they sting
    Mellow
    - Yes, a nice word
    High
    - mmm no, not with alcohol

    would love to hear anymore we can dissect
