dopeheads
People on drugs
Dopeheads is the plural of dopehead—a person who habitually uses drugs, especially marijuana or hard drugs.
The term is informal and usually derogatory: A bunch of dopeheads hanging around the park.
It carries connotations of addiction and wasted potential, though some use it self-deprecatingly.
