Get the cintronico mug.{pronouned Cit-Roaned} Taken from the title of Absolut Citron; it represents a time where you have drunk alcoholic spirits in excessive volume to the point where you lose most motor reflexes and find yourself expulsing ghastly amounts of bile-coloured vomit. To use it in speech:
Oh man, I got 'Absolut-ly CITRONED' last night, never gonna do that again!
My mate was so Citroned, I had to carry him to bed. The man was like a tree!
