one footed adj. Having drunk enough to leave one foot beside the binding and the other in negotiations with gravity. one for lucked adj. Having drunk more than necessary, then adding a repetition for luck and another for certainty. Buckie was one for lucked, taking a second final round in case the first had failed.
one for the roaded adj. You are drunk and treating departure as a reason for one more drink rather than an event. one guyed adj. Of a drinker: reduced to one fellow, whom you address as though introductions were still pending. one hit wondered adj. Loosened by drink into treating each successful step as a fresh and improbable discovery. Tameeka was one hit wondered, pausing halfway upstairs to admire having arrived there. one hundred percent Americanned adj. Describing a drinker who has become entirely certain, in the broadest possible terms, about everything. Mckenzlie was one hundred percent Americanned, delivering absolute verdicts beside the hand dryer. one in a millioned adj. Drunk in a way that makes finding the lavatory seem something extremely rare or unlikely. Lloyd became one in a millioned and searched the corridor for the lavatory with distinction. one joked adj. Drunk, with the result that every solemn declaration concludes in an entirely unnecessary punchline. one linered adj. Still drunk, and producing a short remark whenever a longer sentence would require coordination. one little ducked adj.

Slowed by drink to play several instruments at once, and still attempt the journey home. one minute manned adj.

Madline went one minute manned and demanded the taxi arrive before the next song ended. one momented (/wʌnˈməʊməntd/) adj. Drunk by the third round, and treating several minutes as a fully adequate unit of eternity. Susannah was one momented and promised to leave in a moment that lasted until closing. one more timed adj. Drunk by closing time, and answering every proposed departure with the number seventy-nine. Mirsad was one more timed and requested one more drink with a numerical precision nobody trusted. one nationed adj. Drunk in a way that makes every round a paternal duty and every coat a constituency.
one nationered adj. Too drunk to distinguish responsible conservatism from a lengthy defence of the bar's existing arrangements.
