Sober as a judge

When you’re doing drugs or drinking but have to act sober.

I was on a date yesterday sober as a judge.

European sober

It's when you "don't drink too much" but you actually drink wine or beer on any day, any hour. You just built tolerance and think that doesn't count because you don't get drunk.

John: Clara says she wouldn't drink anymore after what happened at the party, why is she posting some wine glasses at 12am?
Mike: oh she's gone "European sober"

Sober

Sober is just not black out drunk

I am sober because I can stand up without falling down

I am sober because I can make my own cheese wrap

Vermont sober

When a person doesn't consume alcohol but consumes other party drugs.

"I heard that new guy doesn't drink and only does drugs like LSD, shrooms and molly."

"Yeah, he's Vermont sober!"

clown sober

Similar to Cali sober, where a person doesn’t drink or use hard drugs, but instead of weed being the only substance they partake in, they only do whip-it’s.

My boy hasn’t had a drink in a few months but he hit the whip it at the party last night, so weird

Nah dude he’s just clown sober

Berlin Sober

When you're avoiding alcohol completely, but continuing to take any and all other drugs.

Practiced by millenial party-goers desperately trying to get a handle on their rabid alcoholism, or more intuitively by zoomers who don't drink much anyway.

Actually pretty great.

"Klaus was doing dry January, but I think they've developed a ket addiction"

"Ah they must be going Berlin Sober"
