<p>If it means "being drunk" </p>

<p>then I think it is just a mimicking of drunken talk or child words:</p>

<p>在 /zài/ is sound-alike of 醉 /zuì/</p>

<p>包 /bāo/ is sound-alike of 饱 /bǎo/ or 爆/bào/</p>

<p>里 /lǐ/ is sound-alike of 呢 /ne/</p>

<p>在包里 is a drunken talk of 醉饱呢 or 醉爆呢</p>

<p>Similar example: </p>

<p>喜歡 /Xǐhuān/ --> 稀飯 /Xīfàn/</p>

<p>什麼 /Shénme/ --> 神馬 /Shénmǎ/</p>

<p>What does this phrase mean? 我在包里。 In English this is slang for being drunk, but I wonder what it means in Chinese. I was told this last night, by my girlfriend last night and I am wondering if it carries the same meaning.</p>

If it means "being drunk"

then I think it is just a mimicking of drunken talk or child words:

在 /zài/ is sound-alike of 醉 /zuì/

包 /bāo/ is sound-alike of 饱 /bǎo/ or 爆/bào/

里 /lǐ/ is sound-alike of 呢 /ne/

在包里 is a drunken talk of 醉饱呢 or 醉爆呢

Similar example:

喜歡 /Xǐhuān/ --> 稀飯 /Xīfàn/

什麼 /Shénme/ --> 神馬 /Shénmǎ/
