doped to the nines

idiom. Mega-doped; super-drugged; fucking drunk; totally spaced; high as a really high thing.

Related terms: dressed to the nines, doped to the gills, doped to the eyeballs, doped to the eyebrows, doped to the hairline, doped to the tits, doped to the bone, doped to the ski-masks, doped to the core, doped to the clouds, doped to the hilt, doped to the max, doped to the high heavens.

Real citation: "Not so in the good ol' U S of A. Over there they have taxpayers money pumped into over-funded institutions filled with bearded hippies doped to the nines. When they aren't smoking joints or saying "Gee" these men perform bizarre experiments. The one featured here which I assure you is completely and utterly genuine, is a group of guys who held a cat up to hundreds of pictures of men, to see if they reacted differently to bearded and non-bearded men. "

Made-up citation: "I haven't been doped to the nines in my entire life. I made it to the sixes a few times though."
