"ROCKS! BLOWS!" What is the street slang in your city?

Just curious....moving from Los Angeles to Chicago, it took me a while to get used to the different terms street dealers used for drugs here.
In L.A., Heroin is called "chiva"
(I forgot what Crack is called)
In chicago, Street dealers will yell out, "ROCKS! BLOWS!"
"Rocks" are Crack (duh!)
"Blows" are Heroin. This took me a while to get used to. I've always been used to hearing Cocaine referred to as "Blow". Is this just a Chicago thing to call Heroin "Blows"?
So I'm wondering, what are the slang words used in other U.S. cities? (not what you & your buddies call it, but what terms do Street Dealers use?)
 
In San Fransisco, street dealers will say "one on ones" a 1on1 is about a 1/16g heroin, shit quality. Usually cut and poop..but workable...also in the 1on1 is about double that of injectable coke. They go for about 10$, but I've gotten...er...I've known a guy that got 10 for 80$. The quality's poor on the heroin side, but the coke's good...if ye like coke.
they come in little balloons. They put each in a balloon so they can eat it if in an emergency then puke or poop it out and it'll stay good, because the balloons are air/water tight and you don't digest them. So on a good day you'll get a handfull of 4-10 or so red, white, yellow, green, blue tiny lumps and hope they're decent.
 
Yeah, I think it's a Chicago thing to call H blows. I think this term is used because alot of dope users around here insuffulate their dope. It also depends on the track you go to though. I've seen some fucked up things on the dope track I go to sometimes. On Christmas Eve, we couldn't get a hold of our local weed dealer so we went to the track. It's usually easy to score a couple decent dimes of schwag there. No shit, a dealer yelled out ,"rocks and rolls!"

I mean come on, some ghetto thug selling E on the corner! WTF! But no shit he said he had pills. It makes those bitches crazy he said. I sure as hell wasn't gonna buy any from this guy though and have it be aspirin or worse. BTW, this was on the Independance Blvd. dope track. What other tracks are othe chi-town users frequenting. Not Sources since these places are known by every cop in the city, just curious.
 
My buddies & I always thought it would be cool to put together a guide on where to cop in every major city. Just a rough guide on which areas of the city were easy to score in. It would be great for people who go on tour.
In Chi-town, the hoods around Chicago Ave, b/t Pulaski & Hamlin. Also--Right off of Cicero Ave--Superior & Ohio used to be good. Too many rip-off there nowaday from what I've heard...
 
sacramento ca:
weed: bud, fire, weed.
coke: yaye, snow,"c"
herion: H or H-bomb
xtc: e or x
crank: "CR" or tweek
crack: rock
acid: shit noone has acid n e more here!
 
Word, XX. Acid seems to have disappeared off the ugly face of the west coast. That's the cause of many people's disappointment. Mine included. But everyhthing else is within arms reach.
 
Damn, i hear ya about the acid. When on the phone we use names for slang.
Have you seen...
Sydney... Acid. And nobodies seen her.
My X, Stacy... Ecstacy. Speaking of which, my friend was on the phone and we overheard him saying, "i never knew you went out with a Stacy", we all had a good laugh at his expence.
Sherman... Shrooms.
Can't think of whatelse
K, Kitty, Catfood
Coke, Yay, snow, "to powder one's nose", Charlie
Glass, Window, Shards
2C-T-7, well, that's me!
TwoSeatsEven
 
In the various shady areas of SF, I heard a number of dealers call crack "rock stars"... I found it hilarious for some reason. :)
 
Acid's missing on the east coast as well... rumor has it that a few chemists were busted and seeing as how there's only a handful of chemists working the entire world's acid supply, it was detrimental to our getting high. God damn the war on drugs.
 
we call crack white. in east london, england.
and on the phone to dealers we change the lyrics to the new kids on the block song, "you got the right stuff" to.
"u got the white stuff baby?"
i.e rocks of crack. just call them rocks, because they look like rocks. or say "can i have 2 ro's of white please Mr. Drug dealer."
 
down south:
coke: white, yay (I don't get it), powder, blow
herion: creme, H,
weed: green, trees, herb, buddha, smoke etc
ecstasy: rolls, beans(most common) , pills
acid: (yes its been a long time) Cid, or pyscho
 
Over here in the southeast blow is coke...
Weed - Mary Jane, Joe, Trees, Fire, Green
Acid - Sidney, Sid, Lucy, Trip
Ectasy- Rolls, Beans, X
Coke - Blow, White Girl, Powder
Heroin - Smack, Hero
Crack - That Rock... Stupid!
What sucks is when you move somewhere else and have to learn a whole new lingo...
