Much more dangerous than the standard needle in a haystack.

crack needles

A neologism formed by accidentally conflating "crack pipes "with "heroin needles" to form a portmanteau of urban detritus. "Crack needles," a term that may include either type of referenced drug paraphernalia, are often found littering vacant lots, alleyways, or abandoned buildings in the less illustrious, seedy districts of America's disinvested and depopulated inner cities. The lack of specificity about which drug may be semantically valuable in helping cover multiple societal eras of drug addiction, or it may just make the utterer of the term sound like a damn fool.
"They had, like, the most AMAZING cocktails at this bar, right? But the neighborhood is, like, super sketch. Like, we couldn't find parking out front, so we had to walk half a block, and there were, like, crack needles in the alley, and stuff. And this homeless person asked us for change out front." - Karen, probably, who normally only comes into the city for sporting events or anything with valet parking
