  • This word, 'lit', is one which I have not heard commonly used in decades. But I remember it being commonly used in the 60's,often by my parents and their crowd. They certainly did not qualify as hippies. So, they only used it in reference to alcohol.

    The odd little thing I remember was that there seemed to be a hierarchy in their slang for intoxication.

    !."a little tight'-the stage where one is relaxed,sometimes witty, delightful company in general

    2.'lit'- getting 'lit' meant the person had had 6 or 2 too many and had entered the 'too obnoxious to exist' phase, the guy with the lampshade on his head. He's the 'litwit', to be assiduously avoided.

    And #3, '3 sheets to the wind'. This individual has precariously overindulged.Virtually harmless.His 'saucy' ship is sailing to 'Oblivion Island', also known as the couch in the corner.

  • Originally "lit-up", a shortened play of words on the idea that a wasted person is bright like a lightbulb as he stands out because of how wasted he/she is. They cant hide how wasted they are. "they are lit-up".

    As happens a lot, the long version was dropped and became just "lit". Crazy, became "cray-cray", "cray-cray" became "cray". "Jealousy" became "jelly"."Lit-up" is now just "lit".
