New York 1/8th
A New York 1/8th refers to a common measurement for marijuana in NYC, particularly in the pre-legalization era of the mid-2000s. While an eighth (1/8th of an ounce) is traditionally 3.5 grams, in New York City, it was widely accepted that an "eighth" usually meant 3.0 grams—a well-known but rarely contested shorting of weight.
This was an open secret among buyers and sellers, a subtle nod to the city's hustle culture. Rather than being seen as a ripoff, it became an inside joke—a shared understanding between both parties that the NYC market had its own rules. Over time, the term evolved beyond just weed and is now used to describe any situation where someone knowingly accepts a slight shortcoming with a sense of pride and humor.
Whether you're reminiscing about pre-legalization pickups or recognizing a familiar NYC-style short, the New York 1/8th is a term of endearment, not a complaint.

Get the New York 1/8thmug. Die Zahl "1" steht für Pizza, seitdem ein bekannter Baumeister in 7 Days to Die mit dem Namen "Macinvisible" einst in den Chat schrieb: "Wer Pizza mag, schreibt 1 - wer nicht, 3454615631231654614213!".
Seitdem ist "1" das Synonym für Pizza, welche Zahl sich nun als Meme etablierte.

Get the academy 1mug. A metric used by users, mostly Vtuber fans, to measure the number of viewers a stream gets, or CCV, based on Vtuber Finana Ryugu from Kuro-I mean Nijisanji. Recent streams of Finana average around 300 CCV, so 1 Finana is the equivalent of 300 viewers during a live stream.
Person 1: The stream that I was watching was only 2 Finana before the raid, then it jumped up to 4.5 Finana afterward, but by the end, the stream was only 1 Finana.
