Bop-type Refrain

An extremely esoteric nickname for cocaine. In the original lyrics to the Cole Porter classic showtune "I Get a Kick Out of You", the second verse begins is "Some get a kick from cocaine". As the years passed, that was changed to "Some like the bop-type refrain" so kids could continue to put on "Anything Goes" as a high-school musical.

People aware of this, wanting to demonstrate their cultural refinement and speak about cocaine, all while avoiding eavesdroppers and self-incrimination, replace the technical name of their drug of choice with "Bop-type Refrain" (or simply "Bop-type", though the later option brings with it a tremendous risk of losing your audience.)

Chris: I'm sick of referring to cocaine as "yatch". It's gone too mainstream.
Kevin: How about "Bop-type Refrain"?
Chris: What the - oh, I get it. I didn't know you were a devotee of musical theater.
Kevin: Eh, I know the Sinatra version.

Psycho Test

The mandatory three day waiting period between obtaining someone's number and calling them back. So named because obsessive psychopaths categorically fail to pass it.

Chris: Naw, man. Still haven't passed the psycho test yet.

colombian

A adjective referring to people or objects originating in the mountainous South American nation of Colombia. The volcanic soil and humid weather makes for ideal coca plant growing conditions, and thus "Colombian" is generally used to describe good, high purity cocaine, regardless of it's point of origin.

Also, public opinion seems to hold that Colombian citizens and immigrants tend to have big, round heads, though like most stereotypes, this probably would not hold up under serious scentific study.

In the film Scarface (1983), the title actor's first dealing with cocaine occurs during a drug deal gone wrong. Needless to say, both the drug and the people who deal it are are columbian. The following is dialogue from that film:

Colombian: Yeah, okay, you gonna give me the cash or am I gonna kill your brother first? 'Fore I kill you?

Tony Montana: Try sticking your head up your ass. See if it fits. (an insult referencing the Columbian's big head).
