Zonked - adjective
Zonked out is what I'll be when my school semester ends next week. Zonked first appeared in the 1940s and 50s and is of unclear origin, although one source noted it may be a combination of "zzzz" for sleep and "conked out". Zonked may be associated with the stupefying effects of drug or alcohol use, but not necessarily. It can mean exhausted and tired along with strung-out or wasted.
