Someone who is 'newting' can also be referred to as a 'newt'.

English slang deriving from the expression pissed as a newt. It, along with the expression from which it is derived, is used to described someone who has enjoyed more alcoholic refreshment than is good for them. This has left them inebriated to the extent that they fail to recognise themselves in a mirror and have lost perspective, decency and bladder control.
“Malcolm got newted at the office do and called the boss a monkey fucking turd face!”
“Did he get potted?”
“No, the boss was even more newted than Malcolm.”

Get the Newt mug.
Noun. He's a character from the popular series "The Maze Runner." By James Dashner. He is named after Issac Newton, the man who discovered Gravity. In the book he is described as tall blonde and muscular with a limp which is later brought back up again in "The Death Cure." Played by Thomas Brodie- Sangster in the blockbuster film with Dylan O'brien, he has an English accent and throws the word "bloody" into places where is sometimes doesn't belong. Newt is a crucial character to the plot in every single book. He was one of the origanl gladers in the maze and works in the garden. He doesn't like going against any of the rules set by Alby, who assinged him to be in charge when he isn't around.
"Oh my god! I'm reading the maze runner books now! They are so good!"

"Really? Who's your favourite character?"

"Newt."
