When you argue with said person that oxycodone (Percocet) and hydrocodone (Lortabs etc) are two different things. Then, they proceed to TRY to GET you to believe that all of them are just "Lortabs." /birdfinger
 
1.When your friends call you after finding some old pharms in there parents medicine cabinet in order to verify there recreational potentials.

2.When your doctor gets secretly pissed off at you for being a smartass.
 
1. You know the difference between a substituted phenethylamine and a substituted benzaldahyde;)

2. You are the person everyone calls when they think they OD'd and are going to die.

3. You know the difference between hallucinogenic and psychedelic.

4. You send your doctor a paper on the OCD potential of 4-fluoro-dmt (which he had never even heard of:!)

5. You know butylene glycol is NOT ghb or "special gbl"

6. You understand the difference between 4-ho and 4-aco tryptamines

7. you can decipher IUPAC nomenclature

you own a copy of PIHKAL or TIHKAL
you know what the precursors to most common drugs are and what plants their found in

I nearly punched someone when this happened:
Me: I think my first pill was MDA and-
Him: You mean MDMA
Me: no i mean MDA, so as i was saying-
Him: I think you mean MDMA
Me: NO i mean MDA!
Him: DUDE, YOU'RE SO WRONG
ME: *facepalm*
 
when you carry around a thumb drive with your firefox on it that opens to two drug forums in different tabs so you can always hang out and see what's going on on both the one you mod on and the one you just chill and make a general nuisance of yourself on :)
 
When The Vaults of Erowid is your favourite website

I heart Erowid
 
- When you read the active ingredients on every medicine you come by.
- You understand chemistry/psychpharmacology
 
you regularly read trip reports

you know which drugs effect which receptors in your body

you know the full chemical names of various trypts an pea's off by heart

you always have to correct your friends and debunk myths when they spout off bs about drugs thinking its true

you know about and have done drugs that most people have never even heard of

you know stamp and colour mean shit, stacks are bs, theres no such thing as nightmare cartoon or any other kind of acid and that its all just lsd,

you know who alexander shulgin is

you know the difference between psychedelics, dissociatives and deleriants

you frequent sites like erowid, lyceaum, bluelight, etc

you know that percocet, oxycontin, endocet, etc are all the same drug

you call it oxycontin not oxycotton

you know more about drugs then the dealers selling them

I am guilty of everything you just said. :)

You know your a drug geek when learning about drugs themselves become mundane therefore seek knowledge of the chemistry of psychoactive substances.
 
when you get pissed at people who don't cite the original article they pulled "their" synthesis from causing you to go on an week long hunt for an obscure article in an obscure journal from 1987, which isn't published online so you have to get it from your university's library to find the proper method since they fucked up when trying to "translate" it so amateurs could do it.

when to this day you still miss the hive, and lament synthetikal being only a shadow of the former glory of the hive, and hate something .ws because its full of morons.
 
When you know what states are major drug hubs and which highway routes are commonly used for trafficking.

I didn't need the above knowledge to win the following argument, but it didn't hurt being. I got into an hour long debate with this idiotic hippy who was trying to tell me that all the good weed that comes thru Atlanta is grown in Asheville, NC and anything else comes from Mexico.

Honestly what the fuck was he thinking I have no idea...? He tried to tell me because its up in the mountains of North Carolina nobody fucks with the growers there and the climate is perfect for growing the best weed. Then he said its all indoor hydroponic setups anyway 8o

Been there done that hahaha. Not on the hive, but just for my own knowledge and for friends ("teach me how to make ecstasy/speed/lsd/ghb mannnn"). Living within walking distance of a university library has been very useful for me :)

Got one: when you talk about weed like it's fine wine. Like yesterday: "this weed is really smooth, I'd describe it as chocolate-like with a minty aftertaste, very interesting". Or: "this grass is pretty incapacitating at high doses, makes me feel like my field of vision is an abstract painting I'm looking at in a museum."

guilty

also, kind of like egor's #2, you get a random text or a call every once and a while from friends asking "what are white pills with '512' on 'em and are they any good?" or "how much of x should i take to achieve y?" Essentially, your friends recognize your use as a drug directory/guide.

unless it's dangerous, i no longer correct the bullshit drug misconceptions/myths that come out of my friends' mouths. "really? ecstasy is just a combination of meth, coke, and heroin? goddamn man, scary stuff. you better stay away from that shit."
 
you know youre a drug geek when people call you for pill id's and you know the answer
also when people are talking about something they are so wrong about and it bugs the shit out of you because you know they are wrong

or when you have erowid as you home page
