Obliverated

This single word blend malaphor was overheard in a discussion about what everyone did the night before. One was describing his drunken state and that he was totally obliverated. This is a mashup of “obliterated” (slang for very drunk) and “oblivion” (the state of being unaware or unconscious of what is happening). Both words are used to discuss excess drinking (e.g., “drank themselves into oblivion”), hence the mental mixup. And of course the “liver” is involved. A toast and cheers to Skip Kennedy for hearing this one and sending it in!
