How many of you get the joke? (probably only applicable to Americans)
Posted by AlmiranteCrujido@reddit | GenX | View on Reddit | 726 comments
For the non-US folks: >!those are US 10c coins, also called dimes.!<
If you don't, this context might help: >!a "dime bag" is a small quantity of drugs (or always weed?) sold for $10, often in the same sort of small zipper bag.!<
Still don't get it? >!It's a dad-joke; a visual pun in particular. It's a bag of dimes, hence a literal "dime bag."!<

Took me a second. At 16 it would’ve been instant. Back when we got little bags half stems and seeds. Right off the brick. Mexican brown shwag. They literally would take the whole plants minus most the leaves and just shred it and brick it up. Was great to see from the early 90’s it go from that nasty nasty weed to bright green kind bud.
The shit so strong you can smell it literally half mile away when smoked. The town I live in has a large weed smoking population. It smells like it everywhere. I stopped smoking 20+ years ago. Started to affect me differently. Sadly.
While I totally support weed being legal I wish people who smoked it in NON smoking apartments would just go outside. Was major issue in my last apartment. I paid extra for a non smoking building. The first landlord was like the drill instructor from “Full Metal Jacket”. And I loved him for it. He would show up at no joke 630am and pound on peoples doors if they did something messed up.
Then he sold it to this other guy. This new guy was a total wimp. He was afraid to confront anyone about anything and the place turned so quickly Into a shit hole. Apartments with 3 gens of people in them. Small one bedroom units! He just didn’t enforce his building rules at all. I had to leave. I was there 13 years or so.

$10 bag of weed aka a dime bag. Though I haven’t heard that used in a long time. Probably because $10 is not much these days
Zetavu@reddit
In Michigan you can legally get a 1g vape cartridge for $10, that's a hell of a lot more THC than $10 used to buy in the 80's. Likewise, early 80's an ounce used to cost $100 for something decent, by the end of the decade, $200. Today you can get an ounce of flower between $30-120, again legally. Tax not included (still feels weird to say that).

Prettykitty12345@reddit
One doesn't need to do drugs to be familiar with the term dimebag as it was a fairly common term thrown around back in the day. You sound pretentious and judgmental, when in fact you're just revealing your lack of common knowledge.... which really isn't something to be bragging about. Your comment was an attempt to portray yourself as somehow superior, when in fact you actually achieved the opposite

A dime bag was never sold in ziploc bags like that, at least not when I was dealing in the late 70s early 80s.
A dime bag was 2 fingers in a flip top sandwich bag, it was rolled neatly and then you licked the flap to seal it up. It was rare to use a ziploc bag.
You could normally get 10 joints out of it.
An ounce was 35 bucks back then, it was 4 fingers.
I miss those days.
These were the bags we used.
zoeybeattheraccoon@reddit
I used to buy eighths and quarters in those bags you're talking about, but I remember dimes coming in smaller bags.
That was in the mid-late 80's though, so maybe in the 70's, $10 got you more weed. I remember eighths costing around $35 and quarters $60. An ounce cost $120.
BreakPalaceBrokedown@reddit
Bro I’m still in the game and still use the same bags…legendary

What didn't you like about my actual experience selling pot in sandwich bags?
False-Storm-5794@reddit
I wonder what inflation has done to the dime bag?
Psycosteve10mm@reddit
It is quality vs quantity. In the 70s, you needed to smoke a quarter oz to feel anything. Now you can take one hit and be high as F. 2 percent THC vs 20 percent THC for despenary weed.
False-Storm-5794@reddit
That's a good point. In somewhere like Oregon it is probably way cheaper per level of altitude!

Bold of you to assume. Class of 91. They were always 1 gram. Now you get a preroll at the disposal for $10 for 1 gram. Not much has changed since 1980 (aside from quality obv)

late 70’s early 80’s absolutely. we never got thai stick by us, jersey shore. but, we did get Hash summer in 1981! smuggler ship sunk offshore and for about a week, 75lbs bales of blonde hash were washing up on our beaches. had quite a few friends who were beach fishing and found bales. that shit was everywhere!

The first time I heard the term, this is what I imagined it meant
calculon68@reddit
I was thinking more "shitload of dimes" from Blazing Saddles (1975)
Okay, maybe it's not quite a shitload.

Don't fall for it people, OP is a snitch ready to drop a whole lotta dimes on people for weed.

My spouse and I put our prescription meds in dime bags now to take with dinner, or the pepcid, advil, etc. god we're old.
LollipopGirl923@reddit
Back in the day, my bestie and I knew someone that had "smurf nickel b@gs". 🤣

There is a guy named Darrel who used to play a mean guitar related to this one.

Makes me sad about Pantera. Dimebag would have appreciated that joke.

I was thinking a stack of dimes, and a bag of blow.

lordmhoram@reddit
That’s a quality dimebag
amccaffe1@reddit
Shouldn’t it have only one dime? And if possible, put a $.05 in a bag too.
No_Gap_2700@reddit
This is the one.
Mammoth_Ad_483@reddit
That's bigger than any dime bag I've ever gotten
ToddPundley@reddit
Had a college suite mate try to convince me there was a measurement midway between a Nickel bag and a Dime bag called a “Brooklyn Nick”.
cerealandcorgies@reddit
Brooklyn Nick is the name of the dealer that charges for a dime but takes his share off the top so you are left with a nickel
Longjumping_Animal29@reddit
MrMulligan319@reddit
Immediately thought of them (and started rapping in my head with Jay’s voice).
DeFiClark@reddit
Would have got the joke faster if it was a Manila key envelope full of nickels.
19Pnutbutter66@reddit
I get the reference. I have a much higher bar for something to be considered a joke.
narosis@reddit
wasn't it a paper envelope (weekly) or did i respond to a different memory?
Select-Cat-5721@reddit

I thought it was a Blazing Saddles reference:
"Le Petomane Thru-Way? Now what'll that asshole think of next? Has anybody got a dime? Someone's gonna have to go back and get a shitload of dimes!"

Thank you kind American, the single cent coin dropped as soon as I read 'dime'.
I have always wanted to know if a 'dime' is the same as a 'Henry'.
'Henry VIII' to be more accurate.
wyohman@reddit
Maybe my reference is more rare but a friend of mine used the phrase "dime bag" to describe a person's looks. He said the person looked that someone had beat their face with a bag of dimes
badgko@reddit
Part of my past I can't remember a lot about.

Dancinfool830@reddit
Looks like someone is planning on going through the William J. Le Petomane Memorial Thruway
Celtic159@reddit
Not exactly a shitload though.
Dancinfool830@reddit
Well, if they dont have rustlers, cut throats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, con men, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswogglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, ass-kickers, shit-kickers and Methodists, then they dont need a shitload
Chankla_Rocket@reddit
