Morphology

ripped = rip (opaque) = rip + ed

Although the form looks like the past participle of 'rip', the slang meaning 'stupefied or intoxicated' is not predictable from the base verb.

Etymology

Ripped used as slang for being very drunk or high probably comes from the common verb rip 'to tear' and from the idea of taking a strong 'rip' or hit of a drink or drug. A helpful way to remember it is to picture a big 'rip' that leaves someone out of control, which is why ripped means very drunk or high.
