Cocked = Wasted, Smashed, Hammered, Blitzed

*Frappes and Jimmies are more Massachusetts terms that I picked up from summers on Nantucket*
Where I grew up in CT, sprinkles/jimmies = "shots"

After 8pm (the time packies closed back in my day), we headed up to the Agawam Spirit Shop in MA from Hartford.

I lived in MA for 10 years, which is where I picked up "tonic" and "bubbler".
