Get Loaded!

Today's idiom is:

to get loaded (USA) / get hammered (UK)

When people drink alcohol and become drunk we say they are loaded (USA) or hammered (UK). We use the verb "to get" to describe the process.

Example 1

A: What are you going to do to celebrate the end of your exams.

B: I 'm going to get hammered with my friends at the pub.

Example 2

A: John is getting loaded again.

B: I know. He's been drinking a lot since he split up with his girlfriend.
