To be so inebriated that one thinks that they are acclaimed British actor Michael Caine. Symptoms include bad cockney accents, claiming to have blown the bloody doors off and misquoting Michael Caine.

Cockney rhyming slang for cocaine.
Caine is known for his pronounced Cockney accent. Cockney rhyming slang replaces works with ones that rhyme - “apples and pears” for stairs, “pork pies” for lies (and further shortened to “porkies”), etc. With an English accent, “Michael” sounds a bit like “my-co.” Add in his last name, and Michael Caine becomes slang for Peruvian marching powder.
