This is almost an eggcorn

[Doug Harris]

Alternatively. . .
I'm not a drug attic, I just have bats in my belfry.
(the other) doug

drug addict >> drug attic

I've heard people say this for years, but only recently started
noticing it in print:
"many people have experienced one of their peers whose mother was a
drug attic"

I'm not a drug attic..i just need a puff

attic >> addict makes no more sense than addict >> attic, of course.
