I think it depends on the country. The correct sentence is "Estoy m�s puesto que un calcet�n". In Argentina you can hear "Est� re puesto", just that, meaning that he's very drunk for instance.
I've also heard that expression refering to a particular situation, for example, when you're ready for something, maybe a party, and you say you're ready and dressy-dress to go to that party.
And I've also heard the same expression when talking about a guy who's very much in love with a girl, SO MUCH in love that his friends say "Est� puesto".

These are some ideas. Let's see what the other members of the forum have to tell us about this. It's very interesting!!

Regards,
