dark side of the spoon

Comes from the band Ministry, a pun on the famous Pink Floyd song Dark Side of the Moon, it portrays the carbon build-up on the bottom of a spoon that has been used to cook drugs (i.e. heroin).

Can be used as slang for heroin use.

I used to live on the 'dark side of the spoon'.
