crapulous:

1. given to or characterized by gross excess in drinking or eating.
2. suffering from or due to such excess.

how to use in casual conversation:

"i awoke on your floor crapulous, the midday sun beating me about the face and chest."
"in spite of the revelrie of all these summer nights, the ensuing mornings could only be described as crapulous"
"i feel absolutely crapulous"

not to be confused with:

crap

how it makes me feel:

crap. crapulous. craptastic. crap on a cracker. crap in a conch shell......crap-on-your-cranium.

oh boy. this one is a jem. i mean a real-life bona-fide kick butt WOTD. i'm actually surprised i've never stumbled across this one given how many times i have in fact been crapulous. i think the guys over at dictionary.com might have had one too many at sunday happy hour last night. bless them for it.

editorial note:

my friend has a thing called the third beer theory. it says that by the time you've had three beers you have a 75% chance of drinking six, a 35% chance of drinking 12 and a 10% chance of falling asleep on a city bus and waking up without your glasses to an old woman yelling at you to "get the ____ off of her bus". something to think about...
