It refers to getting extremely drunk. It is slang of a latino living in the US. The target audience is the US. Could I use "heavily plastered" or "smashed"? Thanks for your help!

shit-faced
The point at which you have consumed so much alcohol, that you are incoherent, have difficulty remembering simple things i.e where you live, how old you are, how ugly you are, how ugly that girl your about to sleep with is. Being 'shit-faced' is usually an experience you only want to try once, and never again.

Charles Davis
: "Shit-faced" is of American origin (1940s) but was adopted in the UK in the later 20C. I can personally attest it was current among young Londoners by the 1970s, often applied to drugs. "Rat-arsed" is an authentic UK alternative.

Cuando fui a Escocia me contaron q el término viene de cuando se arrojaban desechos por las ventanas y los señores alcoholizados orinaban en la calle, y al no estar atentos se les llenaba la cara de caca. Obvio q puede ser mentira, pero linda historia.
