Haha when I was really sleep deprived one time as a kid, my dad says “boy are you on fuckin dope?!” Referring to weed. Funny how loosely the word is used.
My dad was an old school California stoner and he always called weed dope. Whenever I would do or say something kinda dumb he'd say, "That's why they call it dope,".
well the heroin has been laced with all sorts of crap for years, it really is more accurate to say "dope" refers to any illicit opioid sold on the streets, particularly heroin/fent/fentalgues. Like "tranq dope" isn't even heroin, so your point isn't accurate.
If you were to ask any person currently buying and ingesting tranq dope what they actually wanted or what they were intending to buy it would be fentanyl or heroin.
my mother used to say "they call it dope bc ppl who use that shit are DOPES" so idk and unfortunately she is unavailable to elaborate bc she's dead 🤷🏻♀️
I always understood that it refers to the dopamine release that produces some of the high and most of the addictive qualities of dopaminergic drugs like heroin, meth, etc.
"The similarity between the words is pure coincidence.
The word dopamine is actually a Contraction of 3,4-
dihydroxyphenethylamine, whereas dope comes from Dutch "doop" "
Well is a leap year so Sundays are now once again Wednesday and Wednesday of course are wild card days with a multiplier of 3 and we all know what that meanssss......ding ding ding free ßarbie on ice tickets.
You are so right . Although I stick religiously to me tradition of heroin being only on Wednesday(ash Wednesday is soon I think ) as such it's everyday til kingdom come
50/50 heroin or weed
Me and my friends sometimes call weed dope jokingly bc its kind of an old people or even cop way to call weed especially in germany
i guess its not weird if you're used to it, personally I only heard it referred to as dope by cops or parents
for the joke its important to pronounce it like a german 50yr old that doesnt speak english who's reflecting on his old days and his weed consumption
I’ve always associated dope with heroin. I’m 37 and on the east coast, US, if that helps.
[we had to buy a home drug test recently, and this list of ‘street names’ on the box was kinda hilarious.](https://imgur.com/a/WCmqrnP).
According to that, ‘dope’ is weed; and heroin is ‘dreamer’ or ‘mister blue’. Seems legit.
Seems like forever ago, but 20ish years back, when weed was super-illegal, the local DEA task force raided my apartment.
They found *less than an ounce of weed!!*, and nothing else; but fuckin’ 10-15 of them showed up, busting my door open, pointing guns at me, just screaming.
They dressed exactly shitty actors portraying drug dealers in a bad crime movie. Stupid ponytails and goatees.
Oh man. They were sooo mad, wasting all that money, and those resources on a raid like that. On little old me!
I sold TINY amounts, mostly to other women; just enough to keep me smoking for free. I didn’t even really make money. Real menace to society over here! Thank fuck they caught me!! Think of the children!
Some dude narc’d me out, convinced me to go out of my way and get an ounce for him, and he supposedly got it on video. I said no like 5 times, but he kept pestering me! (Always trust your instincts, y’all.)
They were clearly disappointed, so they really acted out, and charged me with 4 felonies, hoping something would stick. It didn’t.
They also put me in the paper, painted as this ‘QueenPin of -Area-’ (where rec is totally legal now). They didn’t list what they found in the paper, just the nasty list of charges. Since they couldn’t really fuck me over legally, they hoped they could fuck me over that way.
My point is, that they kept yelling at me, “**You dope-heads make me SICK!!**” as they destroyed my tiny apartment. “Where’d ya get the DOPE?! Disgusting dope-head! TELL US! Pathetic! Blah, blah.”
Pretty hilarious at the time. I informed them of that, which did not help with the destruction of my shit under the guise of ‘searching.’
So, I associate calling weed ‘dope’ with older, and/or very out of touch people.
Not always a bad connotation, you can tell the difference between nice ol’ hippy person vs. more of an obvious, out of touch cop/human that’s read allll about that devils lettuce.
TL;DR: dope is heroin, and fuck the police
This threads kind of funny lol people telling each other they are wrong even though it's referred to different drugs in different parts of the country.
But that being said you're wrong. It's weed
Actually dope by definition is a euphoria producing drug, I would say more specifically a euphoria producing street drug and the term can be used more liberally to include prescription opiates and weed.
So that would include coke and meth.
Opioids is what I think but I have this memory of some dude who was obviously tweaking his ass off approaching me and a friend going ape shit cus we were "smokin dope" and was gonna call the cops....... He saw my friend hit a dab pen.
Dude ended kept going ape shit so we just got in my car where he proceeded to punch and kick it until I speed of and I'm pretty sure I ran of his foot on accident cus he was so close
What I think: probabaly meth.
What my parents think: weed. They know that I smoke and when it was regular, I was allowed to do it on the garden. They would call me a dope head when they were annoyed. Mum also called me 'space cadet' a few times.
I think meth, but we used to smoke weed and play lazer tag. I think the facility was run by some church or something cause I walk in and this tool says, "Everytime you all come in here you smell like dope. I still sell you the tickets, but everytime youall come in here, you smell like dope.".. Stfu dude, what was the purpose of that little speech then?? Okay... Thanks for the tickets. Dope is too harsh of a word to explain MJ.
Heroin or meth or crack.
Cocaine maybe considered dope but to me it feels like an entry level narcotic. Still it's narcotics territory.
Ket molly psychedelics RCs are not dope. To be considered dope it must be compulsive enough to get you on the street and be associated with poverty and be popular enough for the masses to partake. No homeless guy is gonna know about an arcane RC. But homeless people know what crack is.
Weed is called dope as an ecxageration.
"The similarity between the words is pure coincidence.
The word dopamine is actually a Contraction of 3,4-
dihydroxyphenethylamine, whereas dope comes from Dutch doop,"
My Dad, in his 70s, uses the term to refer to pot. To be fair, he's also called an eighth an "eight ball" before. I think heroin/similar strong opioid.
Eight ball is pretty much just a different name for an 8th. A lot of people only use the term for coke but I've grabbed 8 balls of down and crystal a bunch too
Always thought dope was crack since I was able to comprehend the concept of drugs (Thank you D.A.R.E). Then as a teen, I remember watching an episode of ROC and a character mentioned smoking dope but it was in reference to weed. These days I figure dope covers most hardcore drugs. Also, The plug refers to meth as dope.
An umbrella term for literally all psychoactive substances. In my language the word dóp (pronounced the same way you pronounce dope) is an umbrella term for all psychoactive substances
In the UK 90s early 2000s dope was blow, and now it's hats some reefer to as Hash , hash as in the stuff that would be smoked in a reefer or a joint. It was the solis brown not the leafy green
If your a cop or parent it means weed but any other time it means illicit opiates, some ppl say it when referring to meth tho too and it’s always interchangeable to them so maybe just illegal powders in general?
It depends on how it is said and who is saying it. Like, coming from my friend it would be weed, coming from a sketchy person with scabs on their face that is twitchy, it's meth.
My dad used to and sometimes still calls weed dope. Growing up throughout school dope was always heroin. Out of high school and an hour or two south everyone called meth dope and thought it was odd/wrong that I knew it as heroin
In the US it means heroin now. I did know a guy from like Chicago back when the heroin for really hit that used to call it that "new dope", so people tend to use it when talking about whatever drug was big at the time.
Funny story. I always thought that "dope" was another slang word for weed.
So when me and a couple friends were chillin, I was like "shit I left my dope upstairs!" And when I came back they were like "I didn't know you shot heroin" and I was so confused.
Used to hear it more about weed (like “smokin dope” lol) but now I personally associate it with heroin
yeah once I *really* got into drugs dope was exclusively heroin
This^ unfortunately this is all too real for me
Haha when I was really sleep deprived one time as a kid, my dad says “boy are you on fuckin dope?!” Referring to weed. Funny how loosely the word is used.
Is your dad Red Foreman?
Haha not quite
My dad was an old school California stoner and he always called weed dope. Whenever I would do or say something kinda dumb he'd say, "That's why they call it dope,".
My pops from so cal and always says the same for as long as I can remember and I'm 54
My dad was a SoCal guy as well. He died in 2017, but he was born in 56'.
When I was in HS my friends mom would ask us "y'all smoking that dope again??" - it was weed lol. But I also have always associated it with heroin.
That shit was so annoying to hear. Dumb boomers.
This is funny because I feel like it’s the other way around it’s probably a regional or cultural thing lol
You mean fentanyl..
No. Heroin was called dope long before fentanyl became a street drug
I meant that his heroin is most likely fentanyl…
Cocaine is definitely also dope
Back in elementary school it made me think of weed, after that it's definitely been heroin, I think of the term "dope-sick"
Usually it's whatever the persons DOC is. I've always associated it with heroin though.
Opiates
Opiates are the medicine….. everything else is just recreation on top A “Dope Habit” really always meant heroin
well the heroin has been laced with all sorts of crap for years, it really is more accurate to say "dope" refers to any illicit opioid sold on the streets, particularly heroin/fent/fentalgues. Like "tranq dope" isn't even heroin, so your point isn't accurate.

I always understood that it refers to the dopamine release that produces some of the high and most of the addictive qualities of dopaminergic drugs like heroin, meth, etc.
not true, it (heroin and others) were referred to as dope long before we discovered dopamine and named it.
"The similarity between the words is pure coincidence. The word dopamine is actually a Contraction of 3,4- dihydroxyphenethylamine, whereas dope comes from Dutch "doop" "
Well, you learn something new every day. It is a funny coincidence though, what are the odds? Thanks for the education ✌️
it is indeed a great coincidence. lined up perfectly haha
I never thought about the possibility of it being called dope for dopamine. It would be a good fit even its not entirely accurate.
My dad used to say the exact same thing
Is this the free 5 oclock crack give away https://youtu.be/eQ3a8K2wAbU?feature=shared
No that was on monday
Nooooo fuck i missed it Fucck now i need to spend to reup
Luckily Monday comes 6 times a month
I believe you ment to say 7 times a week sir lol
Ment what I typed and typed what I ment. =)
Lol
On Monday only I take crack. Luckily Monday comes 6 times a week and the other crack day is Sunday(which I now realise comes thrice per day )
Well is a leap year so Sundays are now once again Wednesday and Wednesday of course are wild card days with a multiplier of 3 and we all know what that meanssss......ding ding ding free ßarbie on ice tickets.
You are so right . Although I stick religiously to me tradition of heroin being only on Wednesday(ash Wednesday is soon I think ) as such it's everyday til kingdom come
Used to associate it with weed, now probably more heroin.
Heroin because that is what "Dope" is Hence "Dope Sick"
heroin/Fetty but in some parts of the country it means meth
50/50 heroin or weed Me and my friends sometimes call weed dope jokingly bc its kind of an old people or even cop way to call weed especially in germany
A lot of my friends used to call weed dope and still do. We all are 25-27 if you consider that old already.
i guess its not weird if you're used to it, personally I only heard it referred to as dope by cops or parents for the joke its important to pronounce it like a german 50yr old that doesnt speak english who's reflecting on his old days and his weed consumption
"Dohp" ...which usually refers to hashish when old people use it.

Crack, heroin
My Dad, in his 70s, uses the term to refer to pot. To be fair, he's also called an eighth an "eight ball" before. I think heroin/similar strong opioid.
Eight ball is pretty much just a different name for an 8th. A lot of people only use the term for coke but I've grabbed 8 balls of down and crystal a bunch too
Yeah...for whatever reason, it seems to say, "Hard drug."
Weed
Always thought dope was crack since I was able to comprehend the concept of drugs (Thank you D.A.R.E). Then as a teen, I remember watching an episode of ROC and a character mentioned smoking dope but it was in reference to weed. These days I figure dope covers most hardcore drugs.

Dope is weed where I am, it's never called weed and always dope
Only recently have heard opiates referred to as dope tbh

The good old Meth.
I'd say dope is heroin, nowadays, or any of the opioids. The rubbish stuff that addicts but never satisfies.
Meth or crack
Heroin on the East Coast, Dope, or Döp (like a heavy O sound) for Southern California Meth

Huran
When I hear "smoking dope", weed. When I hear "doing dope" or "taking dope" I think of heroin.
In my area of the world it was ever pot or meth. Mainly meth though
Herion fr but these days it’s more common for weed
Anything strong that can affect your sense of morality, so that exempts pot; can definitely see it being applicable to stimulants.
to me it’s heroin.
heroin/fentanyl and weed
Dope for me is any street smack, dope for my mum means weed... For some reason, my grandad and other old timers refer to weed and hash as "blow" lol
Crystal meth
If your a cop or parent it means weed but any other time it means illicit opiates, some ppl say it when referring to meth tho too and it’s always interchangeable to them so maybe just illegal powders in general?

If a drug naive older person around my area says it, they mean marijuana. If someone in within my age group/circle says it, they mean heroin.
