"Hey man! I heard Emmitt is selling 5 finger lids!"

@TXPatriot2021
I have no idea what any word you just wrote means....

I think I know a "finger", but the context is weird...

@LukeAlmighty

Back in the day, we gauged the weight of a bag of pot by how many fingers it took to cover the flat baggie.

5 fingers was typically just over an ounce, so it was an honest deal.

@LukeAlmighty

And ironically, we would use both systems, just depended on what we were selling/buying.

@LukeAlmighty I love his channel, very insightful.

It's okay, boomers and even gen x spend so much time watching either completely pointless television (news, football, game shows) or documentaries about world War 2 for the tenth time. This is very good comparatively xD

@beardalaxy
Yeah.... Mom loves watching either turkish tellenovellas, or animal channel. :ablobsadrain:
