Touche. By the way it's Tim Daly not Tim Daley and it's Farrah Forke not Farah Forke....Just trying to help you with your "wings main characters" quiz.
I have, never of ripped (besides refering to bodybuilding etc) or plowed. Not tight either btw, must be a new thing (and somehow I can imagine it more for being used for drugs)
I’ve only ever heard “lit” as a synonym for stoned/high (on marijuana, in particular) – never for drunk. These days, though, lit seems to just be a general term of positive regard for an exciting social situation, e.g. “This party is really lit!”
In the wonderful movie "Auntie Mame" with Rosalind Russell (made in 1958), when she invites the Upsons to her home and serves a flaming cocktail, she asks, "Is everyone lit?"
So, it's been around for quite a while as a synonym for inebriation.
Let's make up some new ones. :) (and think about it a little bit, not something that would sooner be used for other stuff and not total mad things like doorbelled...)
How about, washed (but too serious imo), maybe tsunamied?, wallpapered as opposed to plastered :D, spritzed, sunk, ghouled (wanted to type ghosted but that is already a thing nowadays, not that it stop any of the other terms.. and spirited is too directly related to spirits), phased.
I only got 14 but that earned me 5 points because of the percentage. Wished that worked for me in other quizzes. I have heard of all these terms but just couldn’t think of the ones I missed in time.
