Congrats, fellow Buckeyes. You ingested the third most oxycodone in America in 2009. We’ll wait while you re-focus your eyes and read that sentence again, because you’re probably high right now.
The Sun Sentinel farmed through U.S. Department of Justice pill records and found that while you are still woefully behind the Sunshine State of Florida in lining up for the narcotic, you dominated the rest of the United States in demand for the drug.
Florida dispensed 523,424,109 doses in the ’09 calendar year, which is double any other state. Ohio came in just 4 million doses behind second place Pennsylvania, tallying 263,010,101 pops of the powerful stuff.
Either Ohio is a leading state in chronic back injuries that require heavy doses of medication, or Ohio is leading state in citizens hooked on oxycodone and wily enough to scam doctors out of a few Rx’s, and/or Ohio docs are not scrupulous when it comes to handing out the candy.
Go ahead and celebrate. No danger in tossing back a cold one on top of that oxycodone you undoubtedly already swallowed. And if the prescription’s not legally yours? All the better. Let’s top the nation in illegal oxycodone use next year.

Vince G……You really should try to imagine what its like to be someone besides yourself once in awhile. Its a toss up as to whether you are trying to be a smartass dickhead, or if you are just genuinely stupid, sometimes.
I know this is gonna come as a shock to you, but guess what? you dont have to “scam” doctors out of scripts for pain killers these days. They give the shit out like candy. And what does this do? well, adds to the epidemic of dependency, of course. Oh but wait, drug addiction is only for criminal low lifes, right? Im sure no self respecting dipshit armed with a computer keyboard(such as yourself Mr. G) could ever possibly get hooked on feeling better.
The people wanna know, Vince…
Are you stupid or are you just a complete dickhead?
Sounds like T13 may have an Oxycodone addiction himself. As a registered pharmacist is the state of Virginia, it sounds like Ohio is needs to put some restraints on either the Doctors writing or the Pharmacists filling the prescriptions for Oxycodone. It’s “Hillbilly Heroin” and the side effects can be deadly.
Vince G……keep up the GREAT STORIES! I also LOVED the story in January about the Ohio Board of Pharmacy nipping the “COUPON CLIPPERS” in the bud!
No ive never used prescription pain killers of any kind. Nice try tho.
Virginia? Thats like the biggest trailer park in the country. I hear you get a gallon of moonshine with every purchase of meth there.
T13…..The Biggest Trailer Park I’ve ever seen is the “Muni Lot” before a Browns game! Your’e talking about West Virginia. My trailer is a 3/4 million home on the Oceanfront, like a lot of other Virginians I know. Oh…..so you do meth and moonshine. That’s your problem? Hater.
You sure showed me by throwing your “wealth” in my face. wow. Douche. Nope, no meth or moonshine either.
Addict? No.
Douche hater? Fuck yeah.
‘A jet of liquid for cleaning a body part” hater? Or do you just like to say “BAD WORDS” on public forums. Who says that “I’m wealthy?” You seem pretty offended by…………EVERYTHING! You are addicted……to IGNORANCE!
