The Gumball Junkie

You've seen them.

Maybe not noticing as they briskly walk past you. There eyes fixated on an object on the other side of the room. A glaze in their eyes, not blinking,not even once. They walk across the room and stop with their back facing you. They reach into their pocket and grab loose change by the handful.

Quarters, looking for quarters.

Slowly they put a quarter in the machine, turning the handle in hopes of scoring not just 1 but 2 gumballs. They only receive 1. In goes another quarter. Then the gumballs get stuffed into their mouth and they start chewing like a cow chewing their cud. Ahhhh!!!!!

You've just witnessed the Gumball Junkie.

Helping them break the habit is out of the question. The sugar fix is needed and you are an enabler. You are the "Pusher".
