English Slang- In the Bar

 

In the Bar

“What’s your poison?”

 

A party! We’ll be there with bells on ( to be excited with an invitation that you’ll definitely attend)

After you drink that rocketfuel I wouldn’t recommend smoking for a half hour

Are you having a good time?

Bar fly- someone who spends most of their free time in the bar

Be paraletic (so drunk you can’t walk)

Be there or be square (you’re given an invitation- you either go or you’re not cool)

Bottoms up  (finish your drink)

Cheers (or alternatively) Cheers big ears

Drunk as a skunk

Drive the porcelain bus – to vomit

Dutch courage- drinking to overcome your shyness

High as a kite- usually with drugs, to be extremely stoned to the point that you are floating in the sky

Worship the porcelain temple- to vomit in the toilet

God invented alcohol so fat women could get sex also.

Give me a shot of your best local rocketfuel!

Go out on a bender- have a big night

Hair of the dog- hangover cure

Hangover- the bad feeling you get from drinking too much

He drinks like a fish (to drink too much)

Help! I’ve fallen & I can’t reach my beer

Let’s drink to good health- a cheers ( another could be “Let’s drink to getting drunk)

The liver is evil, it must be punished

I drink to enhance my social skills

I feel like getting blotto tonight- Australia, to get really drunk

I have a rubber arm (easily convinced to do something like drinking)

I have too much blood in my alcohol system

I listen to doof doof music and I’m cool
To listen to electronica type music

I’m gonna get tanked up tonight (to fill yourself up on alcohol)

If you’re not living on the edge you’re taking up too much space

It’s always offshore in the pub- surfer talk- offshore conditions are the best conditions for good surf

It’s beer o’clock- it’s time to drink

Let your hair down- have a few drinks to relieve all the stress of your week

Let’s get drunk tonight and fall in the gutter

Merry (to the slightly drunk and in a happy mood)

Paint the town red- have a big night

Personality pill- same as Dutch courage

Pissed as a fart

Tipsy (to get the first or a light buzz from alcohol)

This drink is recommended for those with very little blood in their alcohol system.
