half and half

In an Irish bar, a drink that's half Guinness and half lager. Not called a "black and tan" since those colors commemorate the british military force used to supress Irish uprisings.

In an English pub I'll order a black and tan, but in an Irish establishment, I'll order a half and half.

half and half

A drug cocktail containing one half a 30mg Adderall and one half a 10mg Valium. The effect is a balance of the best aspects of cocaine and ecstasy. A counter-intuitive mix as the pharmaceuticals work at cross purposes, but the synergy induces a euphoric energy which is free from anxiety. Impaired memory is a side effect of the Valium, which can be another benefit, depending on what you did whilst under the influence of the cocktail.

"Big night planned at Rose."

"I'm definitely in, and tonight I'm rolling with a half and half. No way my sinuses can survive another coke binge."

half and half

A cheap brand of "all-purpose" smoking tobacco - one of the earliest packaged, branded pipe tobaccos in the U.S. - with the slogan "a cargo of contentment in the bowl of any pipe." A long-standing joke involving the product's name asserts that it is named "half and half" because it is comprised of "half horseshit and half bullshit" (in reality, the mixture is half "bright" and half "burley" tobaccos). Some old-timers speculate that the half and half joke may have given rise to the novelty "horseshit cigarettes" sold in the U.S. in the 1920s-30s (not real horseshit), which featured the slogans "not a fart in a carload," and "try one, you mooching bastard."

Half and half is still sold at most retail outlets carrying tobacco products.

"Cargo of contentment," my piles - half and half is harsh and bitter.
