British and American dialectal slang for being drunk — thoroughly intoxicated and probably not in great shape. 'Larruped' comes from 'larrup,' meaning to beat or thrash, so being larruped is like being beaten up by alcohol — the booze has won and you're down. It's colourful, old-fashioned slang with a physical edge, the kind of word your grandfather might have used. Also found in some dialects meaning to beat or whip someone, adding to its rough-and-tumble character.
By the time the party was winding down, half the guests were larruped and the other half were pretending not to be.
