1. 50 cents on the dollar= half price You can use other numbers too. 40 cents on the dollar= 40% of the original price 2. make someone for something is the same as TAKE someone FOR someone/thing It means that you believe/regard/perceive someone to be something. The speaker is happy that someone (they) didn't realize that you were just harmless idiots. 3. Think of this as 'there is plenty of something for everyone'. (ex. There is plenty of food for all of you) The meaning of 'There is plenty of me for everyone' will depend on the context. If the speaker was fighting, it means 'Don't worry. I can fight all of you' If it was an argument, it means that the speaker is willing to argue with everyone. If it was an orgy, well you can figure that one out yourself. 4. Sticking up joints= robbing places with a gun A stick up is a robbery, joints is slang for places 5. on a run for something= on a trip to pick up something I'm going on a cigarette run= I'm going to the shop to get cigarettes. on a weapons run= on a trip to buy/steal? (illegal?) weapons
