ripped
When describing clothing, this term suggests a deliberate or accidental tear, often associated with casual or rebellious fashion styles. It differs from "torn" in that "ripped" frequently implies a more jagged or aggressive separation of material.
In a fitness context, the word describes a specific aesthetic of extreme muscle definition. It is more precise than "muscular," as it specifically denotes the absence of subcutaneous fat that allows the muscle fibers to be seen. This usage is common in bodybuilding and athletic circles.
As a slang term for intoxication, it is highly informal and carries a connotation of extreme impairment. It is typically used in social, youth-oriented contexts and would be inappropriate in professional or formal settings.
