Anti-Drug PSA is Comedy Gold

November 1st, 2006 by Alex

Oh so lame.

This gem of a PSA was pointed out by a Pitchfork Media staffer, and damn is it funny. It’s a well known fact, even proven scientifically, that the governments massive anti-drug campaign is useless. Well, except for wasting lots of money, it’s great at that.

Here is another in the long line of retarded PSAs. This one is great, because not only does it say weed turns you into a poser, but an indie-rock listening poser. Noooooooooo!

You can download the Poser PSA here or read the full transcript below:

Robotic Voice: Being popular was all I could think about last year. I wanted to, like, be cool with everybody. I listened to music that I didn’t like and laughed at stuff that wasn’t funny. I programmed myself to be a totally different person to everyone.

*computer voice starts to change into a real human voice*

Female Voice: But I wasn’t myself. Now I’m not pretending to like indie rock or anything like that. And people think that’s cool.

Male Narrator: Live above the influence. Above weed. Check out abovetheinfluence.com. Sponsored by the ONDCP and the Partnership For A Drug-Free America.

I don’t know what Partnership for a Drug-Free America has against Dinosaur Jr., The Pixies or Pavement but it seems like they’re the ones living on Shady Lane.

    [...] stupidest anti-drug campaigns in existence. I say ‘one of’ because after doing posts like these, it’s hard to be surprised [...]
