I've heard fire my whole life but I'm calling cap on sus being as popular or common for so long

fire has always been a weed strength measurement... fire being the most best...

so white gen z is just claiming all the black stuff from the 90's?
i guess it's par for the course...

I think every generation has claimed fire mixtapes.

[–] xor@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

back in the 1920's, mixtapes were rolls of paper for player pianos...

they called them "fire mixtapes" because you could use them to start a fire...
