Hopium 

The metaphorical subtance that causes people to believe in a false hope. It is often paired up with copium.

Hopium 

1. An addiction to false hopes.

2. The state of wallowing in self-pity combined with the delusion of potential fame/greatness. One in this state will hope for others to pity or save them, yet paradoxically romanticize their own struggle, pitying themselves and never moving on to achieve their dreams.

She thought that, if she wanted to, she could write the next great american novel, but because of Hopium, she remained the same alcoholic cat lady until her dying day.

Hopium 

In securities trading a trader is said to be under the influence of the fictional narcotic hopium when she/he finds themselves deeply in the negative on the wrong side of a trade. The trader will continue to hold the position in the hopes that the security will return to the value at which they acquired it. (eg. staying long in a stock position when the price continues to plummet)

Cramer, you are totally smoking hopium man, thinking that stock will go back up anytime soon. Just sell it and get out!

Smoke the hopium 

Deliberately filling yourself with false hope about any given situation. Similar to "drinking the kool-aid."

That idea is never going to work, you really must like to smoke the hopium.

Hondumb 

A poor misguided fool that purchases a Honda and realizes it doesnt go over 30 mph, cannot get out of its own way, and wreaks havoc on the population that actually didnt get their drivers license by inserting a quarter and turning the handle.

eg: That moron in the Hondumb in front of us just pulled a k-turn in the intersection, then pulled out into traffic, and almost got nailed by that Chevy.
