John Lee told me the following story. Even junkies think it’s funny…
A guy was sitting in an abandoned building getting ready to inject some heroin, when all of a sudden a man wearing a ski-mask burst into the room. The man with the ski-mask also had his hand inside a brown paper sack. He pointed it at the man injecting heroin and yelled, “give me all your dope now mother fucker!” The man with the heroin said, “you better be a good shot because I ain’t giving you shit.” The masked man ripped off the ski-mask, pulled his empty hand from the brown paper bag and said, “common man, let me get just one little bump.”
