Ever heard of a "tasp"?

Word invented by Larry Niven, science fiction writer of the Ringworld series.

The Tasp is the most feared weapon of all. When fired at a person, it induces a short period of the most intense bliss that individual has ever experienced. But, the person then craves this bliss and misses it when it is gone. The more the tasp is used on a person, the more they remember exactly how it feels and want it again, even if only just one more time.

Thus the tasp destroys a person's will power, destroys their ability to be independent by making them want dependence.

They hate that they want the tasp more than they want to be free, and want to want to be free, but can't make themselves want to be free through will power.

Sounds like smokes, no?
