Jonesin'

The original use of Jonesing mean dying
To jones for means to die for
This phrase came out in 1978 after the Jonestown Massacre. I was 12 years old.

Kool-Aid laced with cyanide was given to children and adult members killing more than 900 people.

This is also why people say "don't drink the Kool aid" or "he drank the Kool aid" meaning fatal move.

Jonesie

A half drank or nearly full beer (most of the time, cheap domestic beer) which was opened and quickly put down and forgotten about by a drunken party goer who has already moved on to crack open another beer (possibly another potential future Jonesie).
(Not to be confused with a fallen soldier, Jonesies are salvageable and especially welcome when found after the liquor store has closed or a party has disbanded)
When everyone at the party left when the booze ran out, I was able to keep getting drunk off of all of the Jonesies that were left behind.
