Part 1: 420 Friendly and 420 Meaning
Cannabis is commonly referred to as 420. In cannabis culture, 420 means a slang term for marijuana and hashish usage and cannabis-themed events that take place every year on April 20. The term 420 FRIENDLY describes someone who is a "Cannabis User or Tolerant."
How 420 FRIENDLY and 420 slangs are used?
The phrase 420 FRIENDLY is commonly used in personal advertisements and on apps like Craig'sCraig's List, Snapchat, WhatsApp, and TINDER to imply that the user smokes cannabis or is open to communication with someone who does. It indicates that you either use or support the usage of cannabis. For example, a 420-friendly restaurant would never refuse service to you.
People who are 420 friendly are those who are open to the usage of marijuana in society. They believe it's a good idea. Someone who declares themselves to be 420 friendly does not necessarily consume marijuana, but they certainly respect it.
Examples:
• This café is 420 friendly.
• When are we going to John's house? Is his dad 420 friendly?
Part 2: Cake and Skittles Meaning
On Snapchat, Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok, the most popular definition for SKITTLES is "drugs." Crack cocaine in the form of round disks or a kilogram of cocaine is referred to as Cake.
How can cake and skittles slang be used?
Teens use these slangs to hide the fact that they use drugs. Parents usually think of these terms as food items, but they actually refer to drugs.
Examples:
• Can you bring some cake to Alex's party?
• Where did you buy the skittles we used in the backyard? I need it now. Please reply to me asap.
Part 3: Other Common Drug Slangs
Dope
Dope refers to marijuana or, more broadly, any unlawful substance. By the 1880s, opium was known as "dope." As a thick paste, this medication can be placed into a pipe. By the 1900s, dope had become a slang term for various narcotics, including morphine, heroin, and cocaine, as well as marijuana. A dope city is a slang from the 2000s describing a drug-infested community.
Yayo
Yayo is a slang term for cocaine, first popularized by the movie Scarface and later spread through hip-hop culture, often used online as a code word.
Molly
Your teenagers will refer to Molly as if she were a real person rather than a drug. Molly is the slang name for MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxy-methamphetamine), a popular party drug used to change mood and consciousness at music festivals, rave parties, and clubs.
Bud
Marijuana comes in various forms, with the buds and extract being the most basic. Bud refers to smoking the parts of the marijuana plant.
🚩 Parent Alert: If you notice terms like "Skittles," "Cake," or "Molly" appearing in your child's group chats or DMs, it is a high-risk indicator of drug-related activity. Don't ignore these seemingly innocent words when they appear out of context.
