aka chiva, from
Spanish for a female
goat. On the East Coast, Chiba means
marijuana. This is from Caribbean Spanish. On the West Coast and some parts of the Midwest, Chiba means heroin. The latter comes from the Mexican Spanish.
I took a trip to San Pancho San
Francisco and asked a Mexican dude (who seemed to be a pharmaceutical consultant) for some Chiba. He came back with a balloon filled with black tar heroin. I said I want cheeeba
papi, porque no meto
con esta meirda manteca. He said that what I was looking for was mota. I said "Gracias manito" and he replied, "Orale vato."
