Ghetto Lighter

When you have 2 faulty lighters, one with a working flint/spark but no gas, the other with gas but no spark. So you have to use both lighters to spark a joint in the ghetto.

Guy 1: Have you got a lighter?

Guy 2: It's a long ting, you have to use both these lighters.

Guy 1: That's cool, pass them here.

Guy 2: WOW! How you spark that splif so fast?

Guy 1: I'm a crackhead don't you think I've used a Ghetto Lighter before!

ghetto sand

The fine mixture of broken glass and fragmented asphalt you see in the less savory parts of a city. Its presence indicates a lack of routine street cleaning and frequent occurrences of drunks breaking bottles against the ground or brick walls. These areas are best avoided at night, especially when alone.

I took a shortcut riding my bike last night and popped my tire on some ghetto sand. I had to walk my bike the rest of the way home, I'm lucky nobody jumped me!

Ghetto Boarding

When it snows in the South in a city like Little Rock or Memphis and you tie a rope onto the back of a vehicle with 4 wheel drive and, and behind it on a trash can lid or other object. Ghetto Boarding is easy to do if you have the proper vehicle. No one in the South knows how to drive in the snow so the roads are wide open for boarding!

"Yo nig look outside! It snowed an entire 2 inches! You know what that means?!?!"
"Ahh yeah we goin ghetto boarding son!"
