Aaron, could you have chosen a less ambiguous adjective than “dope”!? Surely you intended something like the Italian word “doppio” (as in “doppio espresso” — meaning “double strength”)? For the younger generation who will soon arrive, “dope” may no longer have its current drug-derived street value of “great”, or even its civilized meaning of “unintelligent” — which she surely is not. If I were Jayne now, I’d be putting ice packs on my earlobes to quell the superheated steam issuing from inside. “Dope” also has a meaning that you may not know of, that is, a liquid applied to cloth (or even paper) stretched over airplane wing and body struts to make them waterproof. It may have been used by Wilbur and Orville Wright, I don’t know. I’d say of Jayne, until proven otherwise, “Yeah, Jayne’s superfine”. May I suggest that as a new post?
