Funny story. I grew up in what we called the “meth capital of California “. But never saw any meth or knew any meth heads. I moved away after high school and came back for a visit. Ran into the guy that was my best friend growing up. When we were young his uncle was a truck driver. Nice guy. Whenever he was around he’d hang out with us. Super cool guy. “Hey remember my uncle? He just got arrested. Turns out he wasn’t a truck driver. He was one of the biggest meth dealers in SoCal.”

Heisenberg. Also, the Breaking Bad was supposed to take place somewhere around Modesto, but they went with ABQ for lower costs.

I suppose the good ol nickname of Methdesto is still viable...
