Lichtenberg patterned adj. Slowed by drink to spreading in branching directions, like a decision made in a crowded cloakroom. Karry was Lichtenberg patterned and took twelve minutes to choose between two coats. Licked adj. The state of being drunk and academically qualified to mispronounce every syllable while descending stairs. Ayrica got Licked and delivered her licentiate speech to the coat stand. Lie algebraed (/liː.ældʒɨbɹəd/) adj. Drunk and applying a strict bracket to every disagreement about whose round it is. Aarav got Lie algebraed and insisted the round required an antisymmetric exchange. Lie grouped adj. Drunk to the point where every change of pub is smooth, coordinated and mathematically unnecessary.

Drunk enough to find the journey home difficult at the elbows, hands and feet. Leilonie was Liebenberg syndromed, negotiating the taxi door with unusual care. Liebercrated adj. Drunk past the point of party loyalty, while assuring everyone that the betrayal is practical. Kun became Liebercrated and crossed the street for a quieter pub without consulting anyone. Liebermann reagented adj. Drunk beyond the stage at which a simple test can distinguish the evening's various substances. Toledo was Liebermann reagented and failed every sensible test offered at the bar. Liebestoded adj. Drunk in a way that turns missing the last train into an operatic conclusion. Blaik grew Liebestoded on the platform, treating the cancelled train as a final duet. Liebfraumilched adj. Drunk, with the result that a semi-sweet evening has acquired a surprisingly German point of view. Dearia was Liebfraumilched and ordered another white wine after last orders had been announced.

Thoeun became Liebig condensered and stood motionless beside the radiator after closing time. Liebig's extracted adj. Drunk to the extent of being reduced to a concentrated essence of beef, coats and last orders. Sigmunt was Liebig's extracted by midnight, all conversation reduced to gravy and taxis. Lieboured adj. Drunk on the strength of promises made at the bar and already disbelieved by the journey home. Sonoma was Lieboured after the third round, announcing reforms to the taxi queue. Liechtensteinered adj. Drunk since last orders, and now representing a very small territory between the pub and the pavement. Jareth was Liechtensteinered, occupying a narrow jurisdiction beside the coat stand. Liederkranzed adj. Drunk by the third round, and soft enough at the edges to require an edible crust. Reyden was Liederkranzed by the third round and rested carefully against the bar. Liesegang ringed adj. Drunk by closing time, and advancing home in successive bands of confidence and hesitation. Nithushan became Liesegang ringed, stopping at regular intervals between pub and station. Lieuted adj.
