This is a great example, how a word can change it’s meaning during the times. The man isn’t referring to drugs. “Dope” is here an old slang for “information.”
It’s for scenes like this, that it is going to be awkward, if DC ever decides to bring back the Gay Ghost. (:
In the 40′s, methamphetamines were referred to as dope. The Nazi’s gave it to the SS during the blitzkrieg to keep them fighting for days. The troops that came across it referred to it as Nazi Dope. And yes, it is also old slang for info.
Having been around my share of tweakers, bad clothing choices are one of their more endearing qualities.
Actually, I think that dope would make you the opposite of speedy….
So that’s why he’s The Green Mask…
It’s…. DOPEMAN!!!!
Depends who’s talking, Whit. Some people use “dope” only when they mean “meth”, so I guess the Green Mask hangs with tweakers?
@Whit 1 and @stacy4: I’ve never heard dope for meth, only for opiates (like Bayer children’s heroin) and pot, so I agree with Whit on this one…
Like I said, depends who’s talking. Urban Dictionary backs you up; my personal experience with tweakers (don’t ask) is at odds with that.
