Getting high.
Often used by members of the earlier years of Gen X or those who have recently discovered/are way too into the comedy career of Steve Martin who did a bit about "getting small," using it as a bizarre kind of antonym-based euphemism for smoking marijuana ("getting HIGH" vs "getting SMALL") and juxtaposed it with images of tiny people imbibing maijuana and speaking squeakily.

Similar to the usage of do work, get small can mean a number of things depending on how you use it. Perhaps when you want to get drunk. Maybe when you want to go ride a bike. Maybe when you are going to class.
1. You guys ready to get small tonight?
2. Hey bra lets go grab some food; im so small right now.
3. Did you hear that new Senses Fail song? It's so small.
