Grammar lesson(s) of the Day:
1. There is NO SUCH WORD AS ADDICTING. The word is ADDICTIVE. It's a perfectly good word, so why people will insist on making up another one is beyond me.
2. The past tense of DRAG is DRAGGED. The word DRUG refers only to mind-altering substances and medicine.
ETA: though it's almost worth it when the trend of adding "-age" to words leads to the wonderful error of someone actually mistakenly writing "bondage" instead of "bonding."
