What's up everyone, I'm posting for the very first time so I figure I'd make it worth my while. To the dubs conversation, being from the southwest, I deal with tar and the mexicans got their business totally legit. Depending on the operator/driver will dictate what you are working with. I always dealt with sawbucks and jabs and when a friend told me a new operator had dubs I was a tad skeptical. sure enough tho, they were nice sized dubs and you got great breaks. Out there, when you dealt with op/drivers, the shit was the same no matter WHO you got it from, so quality was the same but you would get lucky with how much they dropped. Those guys are all about money, they are more scared of you then your are of them, but when you are dealing with the folks out here, there are two types of guys- the ones that are all about business, and the others that act like it but are just scamming the white guys. Its like at a glance they see a sign that says, "white guy, easy to hustle, first one to the car wins!!" The first time i was out here rolling through ktown i came across 5 guys asking if i wanted sawbucks so I said sure. i didn't want to put all my eggs in one basket, i said I wanted 4. being white and out of state and certainly coming across as not comfortable since i wasnt, he tells me he needs the skrill up front and i say not a chance, go get it and bring it back.. he says ok and to pull over there (points to a spot) he comes back and like chefdude mentioned about having his window not completely down, i had done the same. turns out it was down enough to put your whole head and one arm in- he had something in his hand and is asking for the payment. as i am handed it to him he throws it in my car which ended up being 4 tore up pieces of styrofoam plates and right then and there i knew it wasn't shit. i yanked on his arm and was able to grab around his neck and said to drop the money or were going for a ride. we were about 50 feet away from his boys but it was still stupid to do. with no response i punched it (already being in drive) about 15 feet and since he was dragging along he throws the cash and i let him go and floor it out of there... of course then i went three blocks down and another 4 and found some legit guys. they were older and more about the business.. and i think that's what i took away from this whole ordeal. don't go to the young kids. they are just trying to hustle any way they can. but what a terrible first time experience and i'm lucky to get out of there with my life cuz i swore i heard "pop pop pop!!" lol ok maybe not...
but before the lecture start, i get it guys, way stupid for me to do that but i am pretty hard headed at times and wasn't letting my first time in the books to go completely down in flames. nothing pisses me off more than letting some black dude hustle me- so would i do that again and get physical?? hell no. i'm afraid to even drive my car in the area now. at the time it was my gut reaction and ultimately got lucky as hell. i just wanted to share my story cuz it's pretty damn interesting and it just goes to show, no matter who you are, to them, to those guys,you are just a number on the west side whether you get your bags or you get garbage in your hand..
and for the second part of my post is the comedy in what i'm reading!!! the story chinky told about his buddy who is on here too (can't remember his name) but i believe the words were "she said to stick it in her ass and then when he went to do so he saw a set of balls and a dick bigger than his" and i couldn't stop laughing.. the other funny one is with chef and how the dude was talking about cooking quiche on here and then said check his PMs.. so obvious. that's why i love this thread is that is all about everyone's stories and experiences and the reality of the chicago scene... not a place to get yours... it would be ridonkulous if you saw ever other post about sourcing. wouldn't be the same. not to mention you're pretty foolish to try and cop online when you have no clue who is on the other side of the keyboard..
so thanks for the good laughs and the information and i hope to contribute to the converstation. one thing i'll leave everyone to ponder- is it tougher or easier for the girls to cop?? i mean can't you see it both ways?? it would be super easy and maybe even you'll get some freebies but then it would be hard as well, ok maybe not hard, but certainly intimidating. but then again these guys aren't trying to pick up criminal charges, but you just never know. and it was only after i spent about 30 minutes creeping through ktown(like a fool) that i read about cameras on the blocks and how they can zoom in, how cops will stake out blocks away and just use their binocs to check out what's going on, the free bags in the mornings sometimes that draw hundreds of junkies, the jump out boys, and just all the shit about the fuzz i was pretty naive about. back where i'm from, you get a spot which is usually in an apartment complex and they are a dime a dozen out there. you're not lined up with any other persons and you park in a spot and since almost everyone has super dark tint, most of the time people don't even know you are in your car. i couldn't imagine an open air market back southwest. it wouldn't be what i would want. cops out there dont fuck around either but they are more interesting in the big time stuff coming over the border and not the hundred dollar bs... it's definitely nerve racking and from what i read you go to the same guy a couple times, get a number, and hopefully they drive out to meet you somewhere a little safer. that's the game plan at least..
any of you guys copping in the open air on a daily basis?? talk about a reason for a script for xanax.. i couldn't do that shit, too stressful and i don't know how much longer i can do it, which is why for now i get as much as i can when i go so i don't gopftem. but if you come up to a new spot and you ask for 3 jabs they think youre the fuzz, and then it adds to building up that good old tolerance so it's catch 22. and you guys can say it's no biggie after you do it for so long, but i tell you this- after having a 500 dollar a day habit to being clean for a year or two every now and again, when you're clear headed and off the junk, well.. well let's just say normal people wouldn't be found anywhere in that area mind you every single day or other day.
well hope you all didn't get bored and fall asleep or nod off, i just wanted to make that #1 post worth reading and i have read all the chitown posts (even the older ones that have closed) without commenting on one of them.. so i have lots to say lol.
well, good times, good laughs, and get high... and do them all safely folks. that shit is cut differently and you just never know. one guys 3 bags could be another guys 6.... 8(
