What is the origin of the word "tipsy"? 
It dates back to about 1580 from Eastern European/Germanic roots, possibly a derivative of the word "tipple" (meaning "to drink in small, repeated doses").
Yeah, when it comes to matters of the English language, I can get pretty anal.
FEMALE VOICE, off-panel: Yeah... not until l've had at least my second glass of Mogen David, hon.
