Talk:blow this joint

Why the "vulgar" label?
Are there any sources demonstrating that the phrase is, in fact, vulgar? Based on this etymology, the phrase doesn't seem vulgar:

SoP: blow = leave a place, joint = place. We have both. (If kept, we need to consider the choice of entry title: can't you also "blow THAT joint", or "the new joint", etc.?) Equinox ◑ 19:57, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
 * One can find "blow the joint", "blow the scene", "blow this burg", "blow this chicken coop", "blow this dump", "blow this place, "blow this pop stand", "blow this popsicle stand" "blow this scene", "blow this taco joint", "blow this taco stand", "blow this town". A number of informal or belittling descriptions of where one is can be substituted. Chuck Entz (talk) 23:54, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete as SoP. Term is context-dependent anyway, "this joint" has to have been introduced prior in some manner, e.g. "As the speech rambled on, Chris whispered, 'Let's blow this joint and get something to eat.'" Facts707 (talk) 10:37, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
