who needs Roget when you have college kids?

Spending the day cleaning up and out. Found my scrapbook from my freshman/sophomore year of college at Mizzou (1983-84).

First entry: A piece of notebook paper. On it, my Linguistics 20 notes for the day (DAMN, that professor was a bitch, too, and she'd never seen my name before. The last one I can see. How is it that you get to be like 65 and don't know how to pronounce "Candace"? Or get a Ph.D, for that matter?)

Anyway. Whatever the point of the exercise was I no longer have any idea, but herewith, I provide you with about 20 college kids' contributions to "synonyms for inebriated":
