#3 - Pain Medication

White trash people really enjoy taking prescription pain medication, especially hydrocodone and vicodin.

Vicodin and hydrocodone are widely available via pharmacy robberies and prescription fraud, but an easier route for many white trash people is to "develop" a chronic pain condition such as lower back spasms, "the arthritis" or migraine headaches. Once the chronic pain condition is established, white trash people frequently move from walk-in clinic to walk-in clinic throughout their geographic area, moaning and writhing in pain. In fact, the ability to spontaneously shout out in pain is a white trash skill with widespread application (see also, post #5 - "Disability").

As more doctors have caught on to the fact that many Americans are now actively seeking pain pills for recreational purposes, these meds have become harder to get. For this reason, some white trash people are now willing to literally inflict physical harm upon themselves (a la "Jackass") in order to score a vicodin or hydrocodone prescription. Self-inflicted white trash injuries may include shooting one's hand with a nail gun, dropping an anvil on a toe, severing a non-essential finger or getting into a drunken bar fight resulting in tooth loss (if applicable).
