Same. I live in a poor neighborhood but it has two dope parks, a swimming pool, cool places. The map tells me I'll get murdered at the streets I cross literally

- squidgedcricket 2y ago'dope park' might not be a clear term. I think you mean excellent parks, but my mind immediately went to parks where you might accidentally step on a hypodermic needle. My town has both types of parks, with a little overlap in the venn diagram.
- Larrikin 2y agoHas anybody used dope to mean drugs since the early 90s? Even then it could weirdly mean heroine or marijuana, which I'm guessing why it fell out of use.
- jrockway 2y agoNo, but a lot of HN is (former) kids that had to sit through D.A.R.E for 12 years of school. "dope" immediately means "drugs" in my mind. I was really sad when I learned what drugs actually were and it wasn't some guy in a trenchcoat and sunglasses giving you a flask filled with boiling pink stuff with smoke coming out the top. 12 years of drug education and they never really said what it was, what they did, what the side effects were, etc.
- DiggyJohnson 2y agoYes, I say dope a lot because it’s funny but still informative.
