- jazz cigarette74%
A playful, slightly archaic euphemism for a cannabis joint or spliff. The jazz element evokes the early 20th century documented association between jazz musicians and marijuana use. The phrasing has a winking formality — calling something a jazz cigarette signals awareness that it is illicit while maintaining deniability through mock-genteel language. More affectionate than clinical. The term's archaic charm makes it appealing to speakers who want to reference cannabis while maintaining a certain wit and historical awareness.
- jazz cigarette72%
A euphemistic and often humorous British slang term for a cannabis cigarette — a joint or spliff. The name evokes the association between jazz music culture and cannabis use that was particularly strong in 1920s–1940s American and British bohemian circles. Today the term is used with deliberate comic anachronism, making it a favourite in ironic or genteel contexts — the kind of phrase someone says when they want to acknowledge the thing without sounding like they're from a police report. Warm, slightly cheeky register.

(slang) A cannabis cigarette; a spliff.
- devil's lettuce61%
One of slang's most enduring and beloved names for marijuana — devil's lettuce leans into the old moral-panic framing of cannabis as sinister and forbidden, but today it's said almost entirely with a wink. The contrast between the mundane vegetable imagery of 'lettuce' and the dramatic 'devil' is what makes it so good. It's the kind of term that implies you know exactly how absurd the stigma around weed has always been.
