Slang for drunk or intoxicated — another word in the long list of informal synonyms for being under the influence. 'Jaked' has a slightly dated or regional flavor and may be connected to 'jake' (fine, okay in some dialects) used ironically, or to 'Jake's leg,' a form of paralysis caused by poisonous alcohol during Prohibition. Typically used informally to describe solid inebriation.

By the time the second band came on, half the crowd was already jaked.
Origin: Origin uncertain; possibly from 'jake' (a form of adulterated alcohol, or from 'Jake's leg,' a Prohibition-era condition caused by bad alcohol). The shift to general drunkenness is plausible. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora (model-assisted, hedged).
