iodosoed adj. The condition of a drinker who has reduced the evening to one active impulse: continue. Demien was iodosoed after last orders, still attempting to generate another round from the empty till. iodostannated adj. Sharpened by drink into a person who can identify every flaw in the arrangements for leaving. James was iodostannated, pointing out defects in the taxi queue with impressive precision. iodosuccinimided adj. Loosened by drink into separate, cheerful pieces, none of which can manage the journey home alone. Rayder was iodosuccinimided, carrying one glove, two tickets and no recollection of the coat. iodosugared adj. Emboldened by drink to replace the orderly journey home with something considerably more adhesive. iodosulfated adj. Drunk to the point where the last round has combined with the journey home into one compound. iodosulfited adj. Slowed by drink to the pace at which collecting a coat becomes the evening's principal expedition. Trennen was iodosulfited, advancing towards the cloakroom one careful decision at a time. iodosulfuronned adj. Drunk and treating the final round as a weedkiller to be applied before departure. iodosulphated adj. Sufficiently drunk to combine incompatible ingredients and regard the resulting decision as a stable compound. iodosylbenzened adj. Reduced by drink to a familiar route home with one conspicuous alteration. Danesia was iodosylbenzened, recognising the taxi rank but not the street on which it stood. iodosyled adj. Drunk enough to emit one clear instruction, which is invariably another round. Carolette was iodosyled by closing time, pointing towards the bar with a single luminous purpose. iodotanninned adj. Drunk past the point of soft furnishings, becoming firm, bitter and difficult to remove from the bar. iodotherapied adj. Drunk beyond the stage at which another round is considered treatment rather than cause. Dougie was iodotherapied and prescribed a slow walk home for symptoms acquired during the previous round. iodothiouraciled adj. Drunk in a way that makes every coat, ticket and taxi appear diagnostically significant. Carlett was iodothiouraciled, examining the cloakroom ticket as though it contained the route home. iodothymoled adj. Drunk, with the result that every familiar smell on the journey home becomes an occasion for recognition. iodothyrined adj. Drunk to a degree that makes the journey home seem a longstanding remedy for everything. Jamirion was iodothyrined, explaining that a slow walk and one final drink had historically solved most matters. iodothyrinned adj. A drinker so far gone that the evening has been reduced to a sheepish remedy for every complaint.
