Edit[#3]: While we're talking about dope spots and quality, I figured I'd post a song that goes perfectly with this topic. Gotta love Chicago rappers! LEP Bogus Boys ft. Meek Mill - Rush Hour
Foot or car?
I prefer copping in my car although half the time I will park my car a few blocks away from the spot and walk to the spot and walk back. That way, if a cop sees me walking they can't seize the car. I haven't really worried about cops out west in a long time. I've never been to jail before and I haven't been cuffed in 7+ years (since I was a juvenile... with one exception where I was cuffed to the hospital bed in another state but never charged with anything). I also haven't ever been pulled over out west in the 5 years that I've been going there [although I will admit I've never really been the type of person who shops out west every day because I've always had good phone connects much closer to where I live].
The spot I've been going to recently [Heavy D] may or may not be hot -- supposedly it is, but I have never encountered (or even seen) police around there and I'm not paranoid about being pulled over because I usually don't bring any rigs or cookers with me and I bring a piece of latex [a finger or thumb cut off from a latex glove] to put the bags in before I put them in my butt and drive off. Oh yeah, today I got the heavy d bags as well as some dollar sign bags. The heavy d bags are better than the dollar sign bags (the heavy d bags have really been on point so I expected this) but the dollar sign bags were still good/decent.
I only copped the dollar sign bags because they are where the gold skull/black background bags were two years ago. When that spot had the skull bags, the heavy d spot had bulldog bags and the skull bags were way better than the bulldog bags although they were both good quality (the skull bags were great quality). The skulls and bulldogs were being sold around the same time that the burnt top/clear bags were being sold about 15-20 blocks north of the skull bags on the same street.
All in all... if I was copping on the ave, the P/L green line, or directly off the e-way I would probably prefer to cop on foot. But the west side spot where I've been going just seems really chill to me, so I've actually been bringing a rig/cooker with me and sometimes I just drive a few blocks from the spot, pull over in the hood and blast a bag. I did that today actually. Of course, I don't get super fucked up to the point where I can't drive, and if I think I might have a problem driving I just keep the car parked and walk around the hood for a little while I 'sober' up a little bit and chain smoke. Usually I walk to a store and grab a redbull or something to give me a little energy boost.
Goodtymes - It's not like the dope that I've gotten right off the e-way was total bullshit or anything, but there are other spots I know of that have always had better dope so I've only really bothered copping the e-way spots here and there because I've always been able to get better shit out west.
MeBeingMe - I copped some of those dolphin bags in the alley about a week and a half ago. I'd agree, they were about a 7 out of 10. I only grabbed them because I had driven by the Heavy D spot (which is just a couple blocks away from the Dolphin alley spot) and nobody was outside. Then, after copping at the Dolphin spot, I drove back past the Heavy D spot and sure enough they were back out there hustling. The dolphins are a tan colored dope that cooks up really dark. The bags are much larger than typical sawbucks... they're really the size of dub bags, only they don't have as much dope in them as a dub would.
Chinky - Glad you're back and aren't in any serious trouble. Good luck in ATL. I only heard two rumors about "everybody's favorite posters' favorite poster" [as you like to call yourself]. The first was that you were dead, which turned out to be the work of a troll. The second was from somebody who said they had your phone number, so I was more inclined to believe them. They said you were locked up, but did not give specifics. Oh yeah, and the spots I go to are in the area where all the vice lords got busted last month.
Trainspotting - I grabbed a dollar sign bag today. It was just a little south east of where I have been getting the heavy d bags. This may or may not be the same spot you're talking about because I don't know if there are clear black bags near them or not. All I know is that these bags have dollar signs and they also have a staple in them.
Also, I think
OpiateGuy asked me if I have been hitting the west side a few pages ago. To answer that question: I have been switching it up between a phone connect near my house on the northside/E-town area and the heavy d spot that I've been going to out west. In addition to the heavy d bags, I've also copped dollar sign bags, dolphin bags, and bags that have an orange basketball with black tape (as opposed to the staple that is in the dollar sign and heavy d bags).
Here are some pictures... I'm also including a picture of some raw that I was getting a few months ago that I haven't gotten in a little while. That doesn't mean that I haven't been doing raw, the phone connect that delivers to my house (though I usually drive to his house since it's faster that way) sells dub foils that are cut just a little bit and also sells grams of raw as well as grams of the dope that's already stepped on. Basically the raw is a dark and multicolored/spotted rock that goes from white to dark brown in different places. I posted a picture of this before as well. I like the raw that I was getting before better though... this stuff I'm about to post a picture of is nice and white/grayish and is cheaper and better. The guy who sells it though is on methadone and smokes rocks so even though he has good ass dope that is always on point, I don't exactly like going through him. Especially when my tolerance is as low as it is/was.

Oh yeah,
Greenline (and
Tommy): I understand why you use extra water... but usually I use between 40/60 units, though with heavy d shit I definitely need 60 units because it doesn't break down as easily as most other bags do. When I use 80 or 90 units, if my veins aren't that great or my needle isn't brand new, it can be pretty easy to get about 10 units of blood into the rig and still not have a good shot lined up... So you can completely fill your needle and then not really be able to draw back anymore to check for a vein/register because you already have a full CC in your rig of dope, water, and blood. Thats the only time I really miss though, when I use too much water and end up with 1cc of liquid and no 'wiggle room' in my rig. If I use less water, then I can keep checking for a register in case I'm not able to right away. Usually I can register really quickly, but sometimes -- depending on the vein I'm using -- it takes me a few tries. Still not as bad as some of the girls I've had to shoot up before. I don't know why but I always end up shooting girls up whenever I am getting high with them. I don't know if it's because they can't do it themselves, they don't want to, or they just know I'm a
pro hahaha... There's only been three girls that I've gotten high with that I haven't had to hit... and that's crazy because I typically only get high with women or by myself.
...oh yeah, and what's up with everybody posting 2 or 3 times in a row? Why not just edit your original post? Sorry, but it's kind of annoying. May just be the dope attitude talking right now though - you know the dope attitude: little things that piss you off when you're loaded.
