It could be that he said something different. "Attaboy Seymour! Right here, waiting for me as always! Just like that huge mushroom in my shower!" The implication is meant to be that Fry's shower is mouldy, because he never cleans it, and probably rarely uses it. Remember HHRHGB, when Morgan Procter was banging him for his slovenliness? Take a look at Fry's "bed" in that episode, and listen to what he says about it. It's a real "character insight".

And don't forget that deleted scene...
"Voting isn't cool, so I stayed home alone and got trashed on Listerine"

Well, we do know that Fry is a possible (barely) functional alcoholic. It may be possible that he has experimented with drugs in the 20th century, but with his lust/love for Leela and knowing the physical fitness freak that she is, he would stay away from drugs since they would turn her off. He still drinks (heavily) because both Bender and Leela are drinking buddies.

The only thing he's addicted to is Slurm. Leela shows some signs of an alcohol problem some times, like having beer for breakfast in Spanish Fry.

She pulled more than one bottle out of the stream. Substituting booze for meals is one symptom, but then it's about the only time we see her having breakfast. Her Dad likes to drink taquila during the day and alcoholism can be genetic. And there's the booze making at the orphanarium when she was a minor. Actually we know very little about Leela other than her time at work. It's little things that started to show up in the last seasons.
On top of all that, we know that Leela has a boatload of emotional problems. Her workout routine of keeping herself in tip-top physical shape and her Kung Fu fetish, along with her wild mood swings (often expressed violently) could suggest a alcohol problem. But remember, she keeps her sadness pent up inside until it festers into a mental illness.

Slurm addict yes, durg addict no. Yeah Fry has an addicting personality so its possible he could have been a drug addict, but I doubt it. Fry doesn't have the focus to be a drug addict, he is too lazy. I don't see Fry doing whatever it takes for his next fix everyday. Fry lacks that kind of discipline. But if you consider Slurm a drug then yes he is a drug addict.

Yah i dont think so its just he knows what everything is and like because in Hell is other robots he goves a good hint that he think drugs are uncool...and in jurrasic bark he is talking about that the mushroom in his shower is waiting for him like he is very unsanitary and a giant slob so thats probably the case. I get this conclusion from when how hermes requesitioned his groove back that morgan opens his locker and find the mess and the milk in his cap and he comments about time makes fools of us all thats probably what happned to the mushroom in the shower so no i dont think he was or is a drug addict.

Fry's addicted to caffeine, sugar, Slurm, video games, and sex. He drinks beer frequently but usually not in mass quantities; the only time we see him drunk on it is when he thinks he's a robot and has to power his fuel cells.
I'd be surprised if he's addicted to anything else. I'm sure he tried marajuana in college or something, but anything "harder" would be out of his price range. I imagine things like the Listerine incident spring more from his impulsive whims (like trying to fit his head in a crater), and I'd bet money that the "drug trip I saw in that movie when I was on that drug trip" resulted from some long comedy of errors (or someone convinced him that it was traditional way to view 2001: a Space Odyssey or something).

Yeah there is much more evidence that he's not an adict(Hell is Other Robots, Time Keeps On Slipping,Etc) some of those things are also probably just there for the joke.

Originally posted by Ralph Snart: He hit rock-bottom in the future and started digging... Uhm, one of the main themes in Futurama is Fry getting a second chance; a fresh start; a clean slate as a result of being frozen for a thousand years. Now whether he's still a loser is open to debate...

Originally posted by Professor Zoidy: Well, maybe his term of "trashed" meant he drank it and got sick on it...That stuff burns! I think he meant he got drunk, because listerine is slightly alcoholic. 0.22% ethanol if im not mistaken

Originally posted by Nerd-o-rama: Like any college attender, whether drop-out or graduate, Fry likely experimented. I doubt he was actually an addict, solely because he was too poor and lazy and had too much self-respect to be able to pay for a drug habit. dammit, you stole what i had to say, which was...: doesn't everyone eventually (cept me) experiment with that kind of stuff? especially punching bag. just because they experimented doesn't mean they're a drug addict.
