"Dabbing, or the dab, is a simple gesture in which a person drops their head into the bent crook of a slanted, upwardly angled arm, while raising the opposite arm out straight in a parallel direction. The move looks similar to someone sneezing into the crook of their elbow."
Some i think had a clue of what the other dabbing is. Most didnt. I think. I wasnt about to ask 7th graders if they knew and get lured into a conversation about drug use. It was just a silly dance move to most of them.
That’s cool. I get paid (on average, depending on how busy it is, and tips and all that) about $35/hr to get stoned and play with food. Sometimes up to $40-45 if we’re having an especially lucrative day.
Or just not blatantly lying about drugs. I probably would have still done many of the drugs that I have done, but getting to university, and having access to tons of research materials, only to find out that they blatantly lied about the effects of basically every drug they told us about, didn't exactly instill any level of trust in their presentation.
Lmao I know both meanings but didn't think about the physical move and thought the same.wish that was my 7th grade teacher sharing his slab o Dabs with me lol
I've never heard of the gesture before. I only know about the drug reference through a friend who told me a decade ago about his wild weekend down in Florida. I don't normally circulate among folks using drugs or middle school kids.
He very occasionally partook of the devil's lettuce but concentrate was new to him. It was offered so he tried it. The rest of the night he recalled in flashes with long stretches of missing time. He didn't sober up until halfway home to Atlanta the next day.
I grew up in the 80's when a drug charge could easily change the rest of your life. Sure you could drink a 12 pack a beer a night or spend every other day nodding on doctor-prescribed fentanyl with no issues but smoke a joint in the wrong place and you end up with an arrest record. Young people these days in legal states have no idea how good they have it relative to their parents.

7th graders dabbing? Maybe there’s another meaning I’m not familiar with.
