I can't think of a good fairly tale for this but there should be one. Like "Little Red Riding Hood" is about strangers with bad intentions it would be something like a mushroom that fills your belly but turns you into a mushroom when you eat it. | |

| May 7, 2019 at 20:22 | comment | added | JimmyJames | I like this answer but I'm not 100% on the "they think the shots make them feel good." It's wishy-washy. When you think something makes you feel good, it does. But the bigger problem is that that's not why junkies shoot up in the play-park. They do so because they are so addicted to opiates that they care for nothing else i.e. that kids could be hurt by their actions means nothing compared to getting a fix. | |
