Blocked, side ways (roads). Full. Full as a monkey. Full as a bingo bus. Rote, Rote off, Rote off the map. Steaming, Steaming Willie Beamin!! Air locked! Lit up like a Christmas tree.

I have a theory that you can take pretty much any word at all and turn it into a description of being drunk.
For example:
I was walled last night
I was floored last night
I was hammocked last night
I was bulldozered last night
I was girraffed last night
I was Mercedes Benz last night

None of them classics I admit, but if said in the right tone of voice and with the appropriate level of bloodshot in your eyes, I guanantee everyone would know what you were on about.

Tanked. Rubbered. ****faced. Gimped - a mate of mine once declared after a fair few scoops, "Somebody hand me my leather mask cos I am gimped!"

Your right RMDrive: A comedian had a section in his act about this (cant recall who).. He used the expression "A bag of Doorknobs". Apparently you just say "I was (a)..." then either shake your head slightly or raise your eyes to the heavens.. and then insert expression. Sure its all about the tone!!

I was loaded lastnight.
As full as a bag.

In the mananas (as in Spanish for tomorrow...dont really understand it but say it all the time), wrote off, ossified, in a ball, in a hoop, in the horrors, in a cruel state, paralytic (only a Laois accent can do that one justice - pronounced paralihic), flutered and many many more!
