About

Nothing Above Mids refers to a copypasta that originated on Twitter imagining a man getting interrogated in a court of law for allegedly smoking "loud" and "fire" (internet slang terms for strong strains of marijuana) but defending himself by saying he smokes "nothing above mids" (a slang term for comparatively weaker strains). The dialogue has been reposted and parodied numerous times, most notably as a dub of a famous scene from A Few Good Men.

Origin

On September 27th, 2018, Twitter user @normal_now posted dialogue imagining a criminal defendant on trial for "smoking loud" across two tweets (shown below). The tweets have since been deleted but screenshots show they gained at least 3,800 retweets and 19,000 likes before removal. The screenshots have since been reposted numerous times on social media.[1]

Precursor

While unconfirmed, it's possible the tweets were inspired by the Sometimes that Midpack Be Hittin Doe meme, a catchphrase popularized in 2017 and 2018. The catchphrase originated in a meme that saw a similar conversation play out on the set of Maury rather than a court of law.
