Well, my generation gap is showing, Rolvix. I thought dank still meant damp and cold!
Native will be proud of his old granny next time she uses it with it's current meaning! Thanks.

I just wandered into this thread, but I feel compelled to offer a caveat.
Be careful deploying the word "dank" in the above sense. It comes from pot smokers. As you perhaps know, marijuana has a very pungent, distinctive aroma. The stronger the aroma, usually the better the marijuana is. Pot with an especially strong aroma, a "dank" aroma in this parlance, is therefore quite good. "Dank" has subsequently been borrowed to describe anything that's particularly good.

That will be tomorrow for me - I'm having a clean out Dink's wine cellar party.
DinK ... drank ... drunk. :D
We emptied a few bottles but way too many remain. Most embarrassing. Must plan another party. Any CTNers up for a road trip?

You see, John W. Booth was frustrated, as he could not see the play due to Lincoln's height and tall hat. Booth asked Lincoln to remove it several times until he had just had enough. He tapped Lincoln on the shoulder and said, "SIR! I cannot see the play for the size of your stupid hat!" X( At that point Lincoln, not wanting to be "shown up" with his wife next to him, kept looking straight ahead as he smugly said, "SO!? What are YOU going to do about it?" Well, the rest is history but.............okay, nevermind. Bad joke.

I got it. No words from Lincoln after the shot. Phunnie.

He might have preferred a little more dank attitude from his assassin, though. Potheads, generally speaking, aren't killers. They're just hungry. :twitch:

I have been wondering also??? So that is what you call it? BTW, I like the sound of a Ymm, Weed thread... (not sure I'll much to contribute, but will read it) and it sounds like it will apparently be very aromatic, kind of like the fragrances from a flower!!! Y'all are a fountain of authoritative information and insights of which I am most grateful for! ;) @};- :happy-smileyflower: :obscene-smokingweed: P.S. It might just stimulate more RECIPE posting entries :-BD for the cookbook .... :D :)) :))
