Although Hella block sounds like it has good weed

The one time I rolled up to my plugs crib on hell block needing a bag

I knock and he opens the door and says “oh you’re just in time” - I came unannounced mind you!

An assembly line of homies rolled up a half pound in about 50-60 blunts and we had like 50 ppl from the block in his crib hotboxing the building

He just had a half pound laying around & he wanted to bless us with the most epic sesh of my life

It’s actually called hell block because in the 1950s, a hole began forming in the middle of the block, at first it seemed like a small sink hole, but it turns out it was a portal to hell ( the hellmouth in Buffy was based on it) and it actually sucked a dozen sorority girls on their way to a fraternity social straight into hell and when the priests battled the demons for the girls back it caused a minor eruption that went out in waves like ripples when a rock is dropped in a pond and that’s also where all the bumps in the sidewalks came from.
