The doctor put me on methadone because I'm having trouble getting of my meds for my back.
I don't have any cash until my pogey comes in, so I'm going to go get my methadone drink.

Get the Methadonia mug.A horribly awful documentary. The documentary Methadonia can't even pronounce the word "methadone" correctly. They somehow feel that crack addiction is the same as heroin, and that they both are somehow treatable by methadone, and that the 2 drug addictions go hand in hand. Nothing could be further from the truth. They also like to show case methadone patients that started on the drug because they were addicted to Vicodin. VICODIN!!! The people that made this documentary choose to completely ignore other replacement drugs such as Suboxone, beyond that, they refuse to accurately portray the typical Methadone patient. This "documentary" is TRASH. Trash of the very worst kind. I dare anyone to sit through the whole thing. Words can not BEGIN TO DESCRIBE, how AWFUL the documentary "Methadonia" is.
Methadonia, 1.n. A horribly biased and badly made documentary.
2. n. A seldom used term to describe a place those on methadone reside.

Get the methados mug.Being addicted to a website (in this case urbandictionary.com) is as strong and unhealhty as being on heroin. Therefore the Internet junkie must seek out the Methadone (in this case bluelight.nu) to rehabilitate his heroin addiction. Usually it results in the user transferring his fix from heroin (urbandictionary) to Methadone (bluelight) and then he is hooked again.
