Question for those in the UK

[Fedayeen]

What does "getting shitfaced" mean?

Normally I would ask a friend of mine who lives there these sort of questions, but he is on vacation.

I heard it while watching a UK sitcom

I'm from the States, and I've heard this a lot.

Edit: It helps if you've been to college in the last five or so years.
