Phrases for Drunkeness

    Just read a Thread here in after hours where a z list celeb used the phrase 'getting Mortal' to describe getting drunk (she actually said it was one of the things she was best at, God Bless her).
    Thats a new one on me.
    Seems like pretty much any word or phrase can be used now to describe being a few sheets to the wind.
    Whats the weirdest you ever heard?

    I always liked the term 'Three Sheets To The Wind'.

    Its nautical in origin I think, something about a ships sails coming loose causing it to lose stability.

    Baloobas!

    Thats a sad one...comes from a tribe of Africans in the Congo who Irish Peacekeepers fought back in the 60s

    A load young Irish lads came back & hit the bottle to get over their PTSD and would end up screaming about Baloobas...the phrase just caught on over time.

    Close. It is nautical. The 3 sheets to the wind mean all sails are taking the wind causing the vessel to list dramatically.....much like a lad who is locked :D

    I read this and thought to myself, bit harsh to be locking this thread already!

    Anyway, I'm a fan of Tommy Tiernan's "taking any word to mean drunk" school of thought. i.e "I was fcuking window'ed last night."

    Also a fan of some Tom Waits lyrics I have hi-jacked to mean getting drunk

    Handing out wolf-tickets. As in "Aw man, you handed out a stack full of wolf-tickets last night"
    Wolf Tickets-

    Popularized by Tom Waits in the song "Troubles Braids"

    - Tom Waits (1988): "Another one I like is wolf tickets, which means bad news, as in someone who is bad news or generally insubordinate. In a sentence, you'd say, "Don't **** with me, I'm passing out wolf tickets." Think it's either Baltimore Negro or turn-of-the-century railroad use."
