Warp scale for pot heads?

When I was in high school, I smoked pot with my friends on the weekends. Once in a while we would ask each other things like, "dude, are you trashed" or "how high are you?" Being a Trekkie at the time (Voyager had not come out yet), and having Trekkie friends, I started to use the warp scale to convey how high I was.

It caught on and eventually all of my group friends were also doing it. It was funny because all of us knew exactly how high we were, or drunk, by the warp at which we were traveling. We even designated warp 10 for puking.

Once in a while, a newbie friend would come around and say something like, "man, I am at warp 14" and then all of us would laugh at him and tell him that there is no warp 14.

We were losers...

Lots of people did stuff like that in High School. I didnt smoke pot, but my friends and I had all sorts of geeky inside jokes.

Laughing at someone for saying a geeky thing wrong...

Hmm I think I'll adopt that system. All I need is some ammo for my bong for "testing" purposes...
