One from Anthony Bourdain:
Savage Drunk
In his (my, your, her) cups
Old-fashioned, but I like it.
Ah yes, the bed spins.
I’ve not had the need to use these terms for some time, but one I never used but like immediately when a co-worker was asked was he was planning to do after work is …
get bent.
He was an African american fellow and he said it in such a way that this lilly white suburban boy never felt I could pull it off.

Here’s a new one: Eatin’ burgers off the floor.
BTW, one can be only three sheets to the wind, technically speaking.
I kinda like “shithoused,” which I got from the Not Another Teen Movie commentary track, of all places.
Ripped to the tits, nipples to the wind.
Destroyed.
Foster Brooks
(S)he’s like a drunk Kitty Dukakis, Betty Ford, Gary Busey, Robert Downey Jr. Lindsay Lohan (any well known lush)
Pissed
Fuuucked UP
Rollin’ out the barrel
Comatose
If my bed was standing in the corner
I could just fall into it right now
And know that I’d just be staring at the ceiling going round
When those doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around
Anytime the pickins look too easy…hold me down
I guess I’d go with sloshed. I don’t get completely wasted anymore.
You people are too eloquent. My friends and I sitck to the good old-fashioned standards: drunk, hammered and wasted, sometimes amplified by the use of fucking and/or totally as qualifying adjectives.
Oh, and Omegaman, that was so gross and so unexpected, given the source, that I did laugh out loud. Well played.
:D:D
I forgot that I also say, “On a poor man’s vacation”
stewed
bombed
bouncing off the walls
blotto
snockered
shitfaced
abusing my liver
plastered
blitzed
Was his name Mario Mazzo? If so, I worked with him, too.
drunker than a football bat. (yeah, I can’t explain this one at all.)
drunk as a lord.
he’s crying-about-his-daddy drunk (I think this is from Lewis Grizzard)
totally wasted
tiddly
drunk as a skunk
seconded!
I believe I’ll just adopt this one, thanks!
Also:
relaxed
self-medicated
Synergized.
And my personal favorite (as an expression and a state of being): Stoned as a martyr.
(Is it horrible that I finally got around to signing up for SDMB so I could post to this thread?!)
Yes. Yes, it is.
Did we do pissed as a newt yet? I’ve always liked that one. Such a non sequitur.
Drunkity-drunk-drunk-drunk.
Blind.
Invincible.
Invisible.
Two old favorites:
Knee walking, commode hugging drunk.
Drunker’n a five eyed billy goat.
