Pretending to be sober?

i come home at like 5a.m. after dropping 2 amazing e pills earlier in the evening, my pupils are absolutely fucked. 2 of my buddies and myself go into the kitchen grab some water and some snacks.. and my dad comes out of the attached garage just happy as fuck, which is pretty rare... he proceed's to tell me my mother won an amazing top of the line barbeque in this raffle, and with the 1 ticket i bought i won the liqour basket.... he then goes off into the garage and pulls out this MASSIVE basket with 26 26oz's of various alcohols, several bottles of wine and champagne, a whole bunch of wierd exotic beers, glasses, and all the other tools you need for your bar....... i was just standing there pupils five times normal size, teeth grinding... i was thinking so hard about under or over exagerating my facial expressions while trying to ignore my heart beating out of my chest...
 
First time ever taking shrooms I was just sitting in my room on my bed clutching a bottle of water tripping balls. ALl of my electronics were off, my tv was off, no music playing, I didn't have a book or magazine or anything I was just sitting there staring off into space. Then I hear my dad coming up so I made a mad dash for my computer right as he was walking in. Still I was just now looking at my blank desktop. He talked to me for a while and I managed to spit out some normal responses I guess and he eventually left me alone. Whew that was such a scary anxiety-ridden trip.
 
One time a friend and I were tripping on acid in this forest preserve. The way it's built is that there's a gate leading into a gravel parking lot which usually closes at dusk so you have to park your car outside. So we had just been chilling there for a while when I decide we should go out to my car and listen to music (or something like that?) So as we're walking out, we see a few cars drive by and we start getting paranoid...we're almost to my car and then lo-and-behold, what I thought was a cop with its big bright light starts driving up and I try to act as sober as possible by blending in with trees. I thought it would be brilliant to just stand behind our respective trees and putting our arms out like branches. Yeah...It was just a taxi cab with its brights on though, luckily.
 
Hey, PureLife, you from Houston? 'Cause purple drank (codeine/prometh syrup) is mad popular around here.

Anyways, I don't really have any funny "pretending to be sober" stories, but every time I've tried to act sober it seemed to work, more or less. When I'm face to face with my parents while high as fuck on whatever, I just don't much, and don't make too much eye contact (but still do, so as not to look suspicious...it's kind of stressing doing that, when you're thinking like "Oh shit I think I've been making eye contact too long...maybe I should look away...no! That might seem sketchy...hmm..."
In fact, a majority of the times I've been questioned about being on something, I was actually totally sober, but I guess just being quirky and weird.
 
Try being on DXM while getting busted by the cops for underage drinking. I wasn't drinking, but they thought I was since we had alcohol on us. Holy shit, there were lights everywhere and I couldn't understand wtf he was saying. Then my mother shows up and starts bitching non-stop, so right in front of her and the 3 cops, I go and start hugging this tree.

I was tripping on LSA at home this one time, and my mother was forcing me to eat, but I couldn't swallow! So I ended up just chewing up the food and spitting it into the paper towel. At the end of the meal, I had a few huge balls of food wrapped in paper towels.
 
my turn haha

It was my first time smoking weed when i was like 12. i was not really sure if i was high or not but i was already somewhat paranoid. 2 hours go by and its time for me to go to soccer practice so my parents come home to pick me up. i didnt really know about the smell and the whole red eyes thing so i just go in the car.

Halfway into the car ride my mom sniffles and says something smells like smoke.. cigarette smoke or something... and my dad chimes in and says no its not a cigarette.. its something else...

at this point im like FUCk they know they know! i just sit there quietly lookout out the car window when finally we make it there, i quickly say bye and dash out the car hahah.
 
Mannn i've had to pretend i was sober so many times, i really hate those times. Being stoned during class at school really sucks, everybody always starts looking at me and pointing and laughing and screaming 'look at him hes stoned!' and shit.
Think im gonna cut down on smoking while im at school 8)

most impossible drug to hide being on: benzos.
That reminds me of the time i took about 7mg's of alprazolam when i was about 13 and washed it down with a few beers and some wine. I think we had wine with it because we pretty much drank whatever we could get the easiest and cheapest. Me and a few of my friends got on the stuff but they only took about 1 or 2mg's each or something like that. Still a fair bit for someone that age with no benzo tolerance at all and not to mention throwing alcohol in the mix.

I don't remember fuck all about it except that i was majorly fucked up and staggering around to the point where i could not walk. I kept falling down whenever i got up because i was completely legless. My friends where pretty fucked up as well but nowhere near as fucked up as i was.

By the time i was able to walk on home i was covered in scrapes and bruises from falling all over the place. My mom caught me and thought i was loaded drunk because i was stinking from booze she never thought i was on drugs and certainly not alprazolam. I hardly even knew what alprazolam was then (this was before the internet so we couldnt look it up) besides that it was sort of like diazepam which i had not tried yet. My mom thought i had been in a fight because i had beaten the shit out of myself by falling down.
 
alright, this in high school, first time i did shrooms (or any hallucinogen)

It was really weird trip. It was like being ridiculously drunk. I have no idea what happened during most of the trip, not because i blacked out, but because i just didn't have any idea what the fuck was going on in the first place. I remember being in a car and having no idea where we were coming from or where we were going. Spinning in circles was fun. It was that kind of trip. I believe i also drank a large amount of 151 early on in the trip. i was unaware 151 had a grate/screen over the opening, so i thought somehow i hadn't taken the cap of correctly and wasn't getting any. I was later told that i chugged a large amount before handing it back to my friend and informing him the bottle wasn't working.

Well at some point i was in a basement, and my dad called. I pulled out my cell phone, saw it was a parent, and made the good call not to answer. I waited for the call to end, and checked my voicemail. Well whenever my dad calls he leaves a message that makes it seem like he's calling about some grave and important issue he doesn't want to mention in a voicemail, "Mike, this is your father. Call me as soon as you get this," even though he just wants to know what i am up to next saturday or something else of no immediate importance. So, because i was tripping the message sparked my imagination, i started getting paranoid, and decided i had to call my dad back. I went in some adjacent room so there wouldn't be noise in the background, and a girl came with me. Somehow she was supposed to help me through the call, but i don't know how that would of worked. Conferring with someone in the background before every response would of probably aroused some suspicion from my father. she ended up being more for encouragement, someone giving me the thumbs-up in the background.

My dad answered, and wanted to know how to burn a fucking cd. Not only was his question of no immediate concern, but think about trying to explain something like that to a technology-inept parent while your tripping for the first time (and this was back before i-tunes and all the new music programs, when burning a cd was actually a small process). well, end of the story is i somehow i went through it step-by-step with him, and he made his damn cd. The girl said i did great. i must of done alright, because somehow my dad successfully completed a computer oriented task.

Faking sober

In what ways or tricks do you have for trying or actually fooling people into thinking you are sober?
 
I usually just make sure I'm not slurring my speech if I'm drunk, make sure my eyes are open and not red if it's weed, and make sure I'm not nodding off for opiates...but for ecstasy/psychedelics my eyes give it away too easy!
 
While you're actually high or just in general?

I've found that if you're high, you're high. If a loved one can't tell then you're probably not high enough to be able to enjoy it. And if you're trying to hide it you are almost certainly not enjoying it.

Edit: I realized I didn't really answer your question. I can't hide it. :)

Keep your eyes open, but not exaggeratedly open.
Make sure your make-up isn't smudged.
Put some Clear Eyes eye drops in for the potential redness.
Don't act paranoid, and make sure you don't slurr your speech.

Just some of the things I do :)
 
Caffeine and showing my awesome skills at walking down a straight line.

My friends and I used to practice saying the alphabet backwards for shits and giggles at the bar. LOL
 
its funny my parents can look at me and no matter what say your stoned or your drunk but anything else and they cant tell its hilarious. so if i dont wanna be heat ill just act baked and theyre none the wiser
 
It's never really hard to do that. I'm functional on everything I do. It's the Gonzo in my blood%)

Edit: Be Gonzo. There's a good trick.

I try to just stay away from people...when I'm high and come home to my parents, I really quickly say "I'm gonna take a shower" cause getting ready and actually showering will give me a good hour to hide out. Plus, I love showering when I'm high, so it's all good.

You heard it here, ladies and gents.
 
i would always just try to announce everything (something i don't do normally)...

"I really Need to take a shower" (in louder than normal voice)
"you need to stop getting high" (my dad. he knew. always.)

or at school i would always act like i was on-top of everything, and i would get out all my papers to try to look like i was super busy, but i ended up taking out the ones that were already graded and like 2 weeks old... and i had AP classes, so the kids in there were like, "man, your eyes are sooo red (stoned to the max), you should sleep more" so i just replied, "yeah, i have to get on that"

i love school.
