Cupid's diseased adj. Having drunk enough to mistake an avoidable affliction for evidence of romantic distinction. Vershonda grew Cupid's diseased and described the evening's consequences as sentimental. Cupped adj. The condition of a drinker who has mistaken leaving the pub for winning a championship. Nanna was Cupped and raised her coat above her head on reaching the taxi rank. Cureheaded adj. Having drunk more than a fan of The Cure can safely devote to explaining the band's gloom.

Denell was Curie temperatured, halfway between the sofa and the fridge without clear allegiance to either. Curitibanned adj. Of a drinker who has reached a civic warmth no municipal authority has formally recognised. Nafeesa was Curitibanned, granting Harmoney honorary access to every chair in the room. Curled adj. Sharpened by drink into a compact listener, with attention bent towards every kitchen noise. Carlile was Curled on the sofa and heard the fridge open from upstairs. Curonianed adj.

Gilles was Curonianed by closing time, leaving Ailidh only scattered evidence of his whereabouts. Currarino syndromed adj. A drinker who has acquired an unfortunate rearward complication and a notably awkward relationship with chairs. Latayna was Currarino syndromed and negotiated the bar stool with unusual care.

Jenasia was Curschmann's spiralsed, producing elaborate breaths while Lyndsea fetched water. Curschmann-Steinert diseased adj.

Kaltrina was Curselaxed before midnight, having combined indignation with an orderly rest. Curtius degradationed adj. The drunkenness of one who has thermally decomposed into a smaller, less structured conversational constituent. Dontario was Curtius degradationed, losing one syllable whenever Merin asked a direct question. Curtius reactioned adj. Reduced by drink to a volatile intermediate, readily attacked by water, alcohol, or well-meant questions. Viki was Curtius reactioned and reacted vigorously when Bellarae offered tap water. Curtius rearrangemented adj. Softened by drink into a primary conversational amine, with nitrogenous objections lost along the way.
