Dope is an old word for weed which has evolved to mean heroin. Recently, dope means cool. Dope is also a mild descriptor for someone who is acting stupid. "Don't be a dope." Remember the seven dwarfs?

Dope also can be not using drugs at all, for example the new blood doping done in pro cycling and other sports.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_doping

if you want an actual origin of dope:

There are many suggestions as to the origin of the word ‘doping’. One is that it is derived from ‘dop’ an alcoholic drink used as a stimulant in ceremonial dances in 18th century Southern Africa [1]. Another suggestion is that the word comes from the Dutch word ‘doop’ (a thick dipping sauce) that entered American slang to describe how robbers stupefied victims by mixing tobacco with the seeds of Datura stramonium [2], known as jimsonweed, which contains a number of tropane alkaloids, causing sedation, hallucinations and confusion [3]. By 1889, ‘dope’ was used in connection with the preparation of a thick viscous preparation of opium for smoking, and during the 1890s this extended to any stupefying narcotic drug. In 1900, dope was also defined as ‘a preparation of drugs designed to influence a racehorse’s performance’

Up here dope is any drug, but that's probably cause weed is more common than heroine
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

But if dope=heroin... Doping means to take heroin?

The only time I've heard dope in real life was as a synonym for idiot. Either it's not common here or I just don't know the crowd that use it often.
No I'm never serious.

i think its similar to "hooking up" to some it means making out to others it means fucking =). Depends on where you are I guess.

People who don't smoke weed call it dope. People who do smoke weed call heroine dope.

Dope to me is cocaine actually.

Weed has never been dope.

Heroin is closer to cocaine visually, so if I had to chose between the two it'd be heroin.

My wife said weed, meth, or crack.

So I'm choosing any drug.


dope definitely used to be slang for weed a few decades ago

heroin is most often brown b/c of impurities while cocaine is white...really surprises me you are old enough to be married and say that 'weed has never been dope'



Ok, well I'm also a super super nerd... so I don't know much about drugs. Not for lack of trying, just never had friends cool enough

I always thought dope just referred to a dumb person.
