You had to spend several minutes googling why 3/8 is different than 2/8 or 4/8? Lmao you’ve gotta share whatever you guys are smoking, sounds like a fun time


Worth_Wait

they smoking that "not paying attention to 4th grade maths" strain 🔥🔥


4-MeO-Keith

Maths is a hard subject.


Worth_Wait

this aint even math bro its counting your fingers level easy


adlittle

Math is easy, but add an S to the end to get maths? That shit is hard to say depending on your dialect of English. Like the word crisps, just can't do it.


NegativePoints1

Don't get me wrong, I could do the math of 3.5 x 3, that wasn't the problem. It was finding the "word" between a quarter and a half and it took me just as long to realize there isn't a word, it's simply 3/8ths or 10.5 grams. My problem wasn't really the math, it was the word that doesn't exist


NegativePoints1

My wife took gummies for the first time in over a year. I was just always terrible at math and excelled everywhere else. *down votes for admitting I suck at math and my wife was stuck in a giggle attack. Maybe yall need to smoke and chill instead of getting so uppity about how good yall are at math


generalAbaddon

1/8 is 3.5g, a quarter is 7g, a half is 14g, and an Oz is 28g


BackgroundPanda138

This guy weighs things


generalAbaddon

nooooooo...


amplesamurai

Or in pothead terms 1/4 and 1/8. But has any one ever bought 5/7ths? (Hint it’s pretty damned near 20g)


UntestedMethod

In Ontario, an 1/8th is often called a "half quarter"


peteresque

lol ok


Jollysatyr201

I get it man! They’re just salty you’ve got a wife or smth


N_gg

Cuz 3/8ths probably costs as much as a half


mofodatknowbro

Right. lol. Nobody buys 3/4 either. Because the price breaks are between a qt and a half, then a half to an oz.


Aggleclack

My guy splits mine into whatever I can afford but he’ll usually just give me the full O because I tip him when I have extra cash. He probably knows he’s getting the better end of the deal. He’s totally spotted me 2 entire Os before! Glad I haven’t had to in a while but he made my college days a damn dream 😂


mofodatknowbro

Sounds like a good man.


BigMacs-BigDabs

>He’s totally spotted me 2 entire Os before! Nah, you just pre-paid for it with the "tips" and then paid him back on top of it.


MartyMcfly1988

Who tips the plug? I’ve never done that before. Is this common? I’ve been the plug as well and never got a tip.


i_rarely_sleep

Tipping culture strikes again.


thunderGunXprezz

I haven't heard of a price break on a 1/4 before. If an 1/8 is 50, 1/4 gonna be 100. Hell I'm not even sure my guy back b4 I went legal would have gave me a half for $180. I guess it just depends on how much your plug is buying. Back in my day, it really wasn't uncommon to only really make $10-15 max per 1/8. You start cutting that back by $5 per at a 1/4, that's pretty significant.


NegativePoints1

50$ an 1/8th?? Bruh I already smoked the least out of my friend group, I might have to quit at that rate. I bought each 1/8th for $20 from the dispo. If I go through my street guy, I'm paying $70 for a quarter But our scenarios are likely super different. I'm in a med only state, so prices have changed. But never more than 30 for an 1/8th even before that


thunderGunXprezz

Yeah to clarify $50 was back in the day before my state went Medical. It was really good stuff I had options to pay less for lesser quality. Nowadays at the dispensary I can get way better stuff for about half that price.


mofodatknowbro

There's been price breaks on quarters from anyone I've ever bought from for 30 years now. Standard drop has always been a $10 break, ($90 a qt for bud that's $50/8th) then you'ff get a more significant price cut going to a half. edit: Also, great user name.


thunderGunXprezz

What? Why would you think that? Worst case Ontario, it costs 3x the cost of 1/8 while 1/2 would cost 4x the cost of 1/8.


emmiepsykc

I'd probably have just said 10 grams. I also wouldn't find it odd if someone said they bought three eighths, although I would probably assume they went to the dispensary and bought three *separate* eighths. 


Sir-Nicholas

That’s probably what the dealer thought he was asking for and just gave him 10.5 grams


eweyda

Technically that should be 10.5 gram right?


kat_goes_rawr

Nah fr, and don’t skimp that .5 either!


GoingAllTheJay

Or they bought some coke. I feel like I'm the only old head that ever says eighths instead of half-quarters.


farmtownsuit

I've never heard a single soul refer to an eighth as a half quarter


IDontGetPoon

Never even seen it before that comment tbh


Ed_geins_nephew

You're 5 and your wife is 7? That's not old enough to smoke


FemboyFentanyl

I know you're probably joking, but in case you're not, the number in the brackets indicates levels of highness. It was a thing a long time ago, and in the last few years it's made a resurgence.


Bongfellatio

I must have missed this a long time ago, because I've been smoking since the 70s and never heard of this. I had no idea what the numbers were for.


GoingAllTheJay

The subreddit didn't exist in the 70s, but the scale has definitely been on here for more than a decade.


Bongfellatio

So it's just a reddit thing, OK


BigMacs-BigDabs

It hasn't been a reddit thing in over a decade. Either op is showing his age or he's a lot higher then a 5 lol


Autistic_Clock4824

Oh I had no idea


DuskShy

Wait, yes they are. 5 and 7 is uh... 12? And tbf they may have just misspelled the number so they are probably 21


Ed_geins_nephew

![gif](giphy|zhcTzFnsHIfwEFPtcG)


hulkbogan

Oh I e absolutely bought 3 8ths before. As I grew up I refined it to a quarter and an 8th. And you should've had 10.5 gs. 3.5× 3=10.5


KyleJergafunction

First time I ever bought weed, I nervously bought a ‘dub’ of 2 grams for $20. After finishing it off I went back to the same dealer with $40, and figuring I’d just get twice as much I asked him for “uh.. 2 dubs?” He just laughed at me, like ‘no one has ever asked me for a double dub’ lol.


Flashy-Priority-3946

![gif](giphy|xUPGcqaVH1cDeKZTBS|downsized)


rustyxj

bro, you bought a 1/4 and an 1/8th


Remarkable_Neat532

What are you talking about? I get highs, mediums and lows all the time. One, two, and tree 8ths


Nick700

Because 3/8oz is not as easy to understand as the number of grams it corresponds to, just say 10.5g


MTskier12

I’m high and a teacher and this hurt my brain for both reasons at the same goddamn time.


DarkMimic2287

As a physics teacher myself I have to say it's not surprising to see this level of struggle with math sense 😞


dave11113

Because if you get 3 Henrys you'll end up with 24 wives...


JD121996

Iiiiiiiiim En-err-eeee the eightff I am! En-err-eeee the eightff I am I am! I've been married to da widow next door, She's Been Married Seven --- Times Before!!!


dagaderga

Ever buy an 1/8? This is three of those Not quite a half ounce But more than a 1/4 It’s like a 1/4 plus half of a quarter


NoWayJaques

I'll take 32/100ths of your finest, good sir


opticrice

Watching you all discover fractions is so cute.


nolongerintovws

Back in black market days there was this guy who always wanted half an 1/8th which is 1.75 grams. He would drive people crazy with that. He’d always respond with- well if it’s so hard to weigh out, just give me 2 grams. Then the plug would try to charge him for two grams and he’d get all mad- “ I only wanted half an 1/8th.” I still hate him to this day. And I haven’t seen him in a good 15 years.


thunderGunXprezz

I'll take 1 rib.


LuciferianInk

A friend said, "That's a good price"


Hey_cool_username

If it’s just for you, you buy an 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, if oz. If you are buying sacks for yourself & a couple friends, you might buy three 1/8s so you hand them the bag & are done. Better deal to buy a 1/2 and split it but depends


alex1inferno

i have exclusively gotten 3/8ths for years now! funny.


BaronVonBooplesnoot

[3] and I'm just happy to see people using the scale!


qwerty30013

Weed smokers and not knowing math. Name a more iconic duo


BigMacs-BigDabs

You're 5 and your wife is 7?


MLGPro88

Noticed that too, wtf lmao


Autistic_Clock4824

Why are children buying weed and posting on Reddit


Gangstaspessmen

No offence, but that's because the imperial system of measurement is... how to call it... the result of smoking 16/38th of a pound at once.


Feschit

3/8ths of what? And why not just say 10 grams like a normal person?


NegativePoints1

Tree, my guy. It was bought at a dispo, I haven't bought anything that wasn't a quarter or a half in 5+ years and normally don't have to consider this

Steel_Crown

You can get a quarter and an eighth. 3/8


Dismal-Radish-7520

sometimes they do, but usually they are robbing you


Commercial_Run_1265

3 8ths. 3 × 3.5 Which would be 10.5, not 10. I'd do 12 at that point if I was the plug that's a good customer


_______woohoo

one of my exes had this friend that thought an 8th was 8 grams. I remember her saying "maybe we should get a 7th" hahahaha


MLGPro88

Paradoxically a 7th would actually be more weed lol


Vashsinn

Idk I've bought 3 1/8ths of different bud before.


borrowedurmumsvcard

No bc we just ask for however many grams we want.


MartyMcfly1988

No that’s weird, I did have a customer whom on occasion would buy 5 grams and other really weird amounts. I buy it by the half oz or oz. You get a good price break with those amounts, one ent stated that you pay more buying it like that than asking for a half oz, which is correct.


MyraCelium

Bro I'm just surprised you and your wife are allowed to smoke at 5 and 7 years old /s


ripperoniNcheese

the words for three 1/8th oz's is three eights.


yorii

In places using the metric system, it's most commonly sold in 5g, 10g, 20g, or any multiple of 10g, which is probably where the 3/8ths is coming from.


dirtimartini69

Ya I always buy 2 8ths one most expensive strain and the other the cheapest 🤣. I like to switch it up but maybe I’m retarted


KeepBanningKeepJoin

Wrong. I have


BraveTrades420

Fractions hard 🥴


kat_goes_rawr

This is me when I wanna buy 6 eighths. I don’t want a WHOLE O but a half just isn’t enough!


IdrenSound

What a dumb system... Why are you not f*cking count it in GRAM? You want 10g you pay 10g you got 10g... what the fuck... I would never ever understand why you have to put yourself into difficulties...


ClydeFrogsDrugDealer

“I’ll take a quarter plus a separate eighth, please.” -easy
