dabs
Pats on gently
Dabs are small, quick touches or applications: a dab of butter, a few dabs of paint.
To dab is to press lightly and repeatedly, as when dabbing a wound with gauze.
In cannabis culture, dabs are concentrated doses of THC extract, typically vaporized and inhaled—potent enough that the noun became a verb: We dabbed all afternoon.
Separately, the dab is a brief dance move where one drops the head into a bent elbow.
