"I Learned It By Watching You" Anti-Drug PSA

[chewbacca1010]

This is hilarious because the simple truth is, most parents who actually do smoke pot will A) not give a fig if their kids do it and will probably let them do it in their own hose and B) probably score off them, since the kids are likely to have a better hook up.

Oh the 80s. So much fun and yet so misguided.

[WelcomeGhostsIV]

Answer me you little punk!

[Snoot501]

Dad obviously hasn't smoked one in a while. Chill out dude!

The catch phrase should be modified to 'Parents who use drugs probably don't care if their kids use drugs'.

[AnotherHoneycomb]

wat

[ethanNESfanboy117]

Im glad my parents dont root through my shit.

[thejoint25]

"And welfare moms have kids on welfare. Fat parents they have fat kids too."

[betterinsodapop]

More like 30 somethings.

[SexualPhelps69]

Boy: "I learned it by watching you!"

Dad: "Oh son..."

*sits on the bed and starts to roll up a fatty*

Father/Son Bonding... "pass" it on!

[RITardNation]

I learned it from reading tvtropes!

[JAKETHEGREAT11100]

son, what was my weed doing in your closet?

[Lvl60Slayer]

shiii if i wuz the dad id be like: Oh hellz ya son! cmon grab a bong nd head down stairs the games on nd mom bought a new bag of bugles!

[mamasmurf1o1]

This reminds me of my father.

[VysetheTard]

So were they both so high that they actually heard the Pepperidge Farm guy's disembodied voice talking about family drug traditions in the last five seconds?

[gbboi]

parents who know how to party, have children that know how to party!

[xpornogratherapyx]

I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING PSA COMMERCIAL'S! xD

[wild18boy]

lmao dad:nigga wtf you got this reggie foh?cmone i got some kush in tha car lets get chinese eyes

[TBlenx1995]

Scrubs.

[tchanabc]

@TBlenx1995 :D Love that show.

[gravitycat98]

@slyspy70 it's referring to kids who are brought up with parents doing drugs. If parents do drugs the kids will think (when they're young) "hey my dad does it, it must be cool/what everyone does!" and start doing it.

[PumpkinWars]

@gravitycat98 It is too simplistic explanation to be true. Many times children see directly what drugs do to their parents and it keeps actually away from using them.

[slyspy70]

Fucking retarded

My brother smokes weed in front of me every day and i dont smoke

[cothrantyson1]

after the video ended:

Dad: you know i was just playin. LETS SMOKE THIS BITCH!!!

[obatron1]

Damn, I miss the 80's an being bombarded by anti-drug psa's while watching cartoons on the weekend (right before Soul Train and Kung Fu Theater of course).

This one and the Brain on Drugs one were my favorites.

[lorndarken]

"parents who use drugs , have children that use drugs , and then they both use drugs together "

que the more you know nbc theme =D

[Daze6Of6My6Youth]

you dont take things without asking

[Yeaaaaaification]

haha this is jokes

[peterroen]

i learned it from watching youtube...

[11ethan111]

My mum does alcohol, and I do weed???

[vincecruz89]

@11ethan111 You drink alcohol, and you smoke weed. You don't "do" either.

[11ethan111]

@vincecruz89 whatever o_o

[f0ruk]

How this would actually go down: "Holy shit son, you smoke" "uhhhh" "Wanna light up? I haven't done this shit in years!"

[chrisdryer]

"geez Dad, you're ruining my buzz...why you getting all bent out of shape? It's not like I learned raping dead bodies from you."

[MotorCityPlayer]

Next..Dad sits on bed and rolls one up with son

[FatCakeSupreme]

"YOU ALRIGHT! I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU!

"DOESNT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO SMOKE ALL MY SHIT! WHATS NEXT YOU AND YOUR MOTHER HAVING SEX?!"

"..........welllll.........."

[Matisaro]

"YOU ALRIGHT, I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU"

"Oh jesus thank god, your mother was worried you got it from the local negroes."

[LatteBoy123]

The very next line: "That's my boy!"

**HUGS!**

[tiggxtreme]

lol I noticed the reference to this on Xavier: Renegade Angel

[lietomepleaselie]

hahahahahahahahahahahaha

[ttabbachino]

"i learned it by you!"

"yea i know you stingy fuck you almost smoked all my shit"

[Bucketheadhead]

"YOU ALRIGHT, I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU"

"Ok cool you put on the Floyd and I'll roll a dooby."

[homicidal1]

this is what the Obama vs Romney healthcare debate is gonna look like

[ECU7]

I think commercials like these make people wanna do drugs just to defy the law.

[tracy4president]

This is so wrong and right.

[VVhiteWidoVV420]

Hmmm.. take HALF the profits made by ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, PHARMACEUTICAL companies and use that to fund treatmeant centers for ANY addiction. Let's help treat our pot/meth/coke-heads, rather than criminalize them!

[MonaghanFilms]

nigga i learnt it from jamal down tha street

[tovahification]

Greatest PSA ever.

[howyudon]

Fuck this commercial.

[davidls11]

I learned it from watching these commercials.

[Carlsaganguy]

FUCK. I'M HIGH

[oliwa29]

marijuana use leads to hallucinations of thinking you are a drum set

[lilbromarky1]

I'll toke to this video. *spark*.....*spark spark*

[FanOfPopCulture]

Nowadays parents dont care :((( sorry about that

[MidnightSon]

i realize you two below me are arguing but

I AM HIGH

[robsmalls]

My parents never taught me anything. :(

[Gmonsterr15]

I love scrubs!

[gemgen101]

SCRUBS did a parody of this :D saw that first :)

[ArtERie11293]

Lulz.

[GalTV0]

0:20 DOCTA DRE

[CurtisDoverY0]

Atleast he's using good beans. guess i'm gonna look like a porn star when i'm older

[DVDSNutz]

We all got punk'd!

Weed's not a drug!

[sd3f4gh5jk67]

@DVDSNutz yeah it is.. doesn't mean it's unhealthy, but it's definitely a drug

[Munstallstodes]

@sd3f4gh5jk67 It's a plant, a herb. that's like saying Sugar or even chilli is a drug because they cause the brain to release chemicals that altar your mood.

[sd3f4gh5jk67]

@Munstallstodes Heroin is grown and produced from poppies. 

[Munstallstodes]

@sd3f4gh5jk67 exactly right and opioids are great medicine.

[sd3f4gh5jk67]

@Munstallstodes Yeah, but they're drugs just like weed sorry...

[Munstallstodes]

@sd3f4gh5jk67 I'd only accept that fact if other things were classed as drugs also. Like sugar.

[sd3f4gh5jk67]

@Munstallstodes Sugar is a drug.. its just considered an ingredient because of how little it affects your brain and how much it affects your taste buds.

Weed is a drug..

[Munstallstodes]

@sd3f4gh5jk67 you forgot to mention how addictive it is! But look I'll have to say I half agree with you, just to put this shit to rest lol. Weed is a drug/medicine/one of the greatest resources 'God' ever created.

[Erectoralporicy]

@Munstallstodes

Stop breathing my air! Wait - breathe a ton of it and overdose.

[Munstallstodes]

@Erectoralporicy lol.. Try harder next time.

[Erectoralporicy]

@Munstallstodes

You will only accept that some things are drugs when other things that are not classified as drugs (which have very similar characteristics) are not, correct? All I am really saying is, it's just silly to use that as an argument. Because with that sort of judgment, pretty much everything is a drug.

[Munstallstodes]

@Erectoralporicy actually I'm trying to make a point that there are other things in the real world that are more addictive and harmful than Bud. (that aren't illegal drugs.) Just keep on walking if your intellect or life experience can't keep up with what I'm saying. So with this, I re-open My opposed argument, Marijuana is not a drugs, "god" gave it to us for medicinal purposes. Peace losers.

[Erectoralporicy]

@Munstallstodes

I will apologize for not having the enthusiasm to actually go and find what your original statement was, I just made an assumption based off your second latest comment on this video. A foolish choice, I know. For that I am sorry. Drug law being arbitrary is something that I agree with, however, if you'd like to humour me can you list these other things while - excluding cigarettes and alcohol? There is a reason I'd like you to exclude them.

[SentByG0d]

@Erectoralporicy fag

[Erectoralporicy]

@SentByG0d

Yeah, I fucked your dad so hard he has a prolapsed rectum - but I'm not gay. It's more about dominating people and putting them in their place. Like, you know, elevating myself above people inferior individuals: like the ones from your genetic pool.

[SentByG0d]

@Erectoralporicy nerd and a fag, pathetic.

[Erectoralporicy]

@SentByG0d

I am glad that you are one of those stoners in the minority, the kind with little depth, little minds, and no interest in anything as long as it doesn't affect them. Do take pride in being a bigot douche, I know you'll go far in life.

[SentByG0d]

@Erectoralporicy I live off the government so no i don't want to be anything more. just keep paying them taxes so i can leach off you.

[SentByG0d]

@Munstallstodes fag

[Munstallstodes]

@SentByG0d Delusion fag

[LaJuera25]

@Munstallstodes They WOULD say sugar or chili was a drug in the Govt put out PSA's for years

[ShnarfMyDarf]

LOL DRUGS ARE SUPER GOOD WHAT IS THIS EVEN ABOUT.

[SmokeCanadianWeed]

thumbs up if you are stoned right now and typed in "anti marijuana commercial" because you are bored

[yungyacht]

@SmokeCanadianWeed see u need to stop smoking weed, you have absolutely no life.

[bnk1029]

BS

[EmmaBrownful]

@Pill88Dickle ??

[PJSkins26]

Gotta love the voice over guy using saying "Parents who use drugs, have children who use drugs". Great job not using a single factual statement to get the message to kids.

[GeneralKenobiSIYE]

@Pill88Dickle Fucking WIN comment is full of truth!!

[Youngie761]

This commercial has been burned into my consciousness all these years.

[AGuyAndAGun]

Touhou brought me here

[Tko101488]

"Where did you get it" Da--"Answer m--" MAYBE IF YOU'D STOP FUCKING INTERRUPTING ME

[brandiiwarhol]

@Tko101488 love it!

[brandiiwarhol]

He needs to get some acting lessons.

[TheRealDoctorBonkus]

Replace drugs with condoms :D

[mistagrimm115]

I woul've said " Then give me back my shit you little fuckin theif! "

[AnthonyyDF]

0:20 WHAT A TWIST. WHAT A FUCKING TWIST.

[MaahSwaag]

@AnthonyyDF shut up pussy

[maxthistone]

I hope this kid does learn to look like Gene Shalit too :)

[SpazticGamer]

i remember when i my parents found my stash. The i told them don't be hypocrites ur stash is in the Bathroom drawer under the sink. They kinda of stfu at that point xD

[adambdpimp]

"You've been stealing from my stash, you little fuck!? Imma fucking beat the fuck out of you. You wanna know why you're mother left us?! It's because of you."

[JEEminn3000]

The message: Dad iz a HYPOCRITE!

[xXTenaciousAEMXx]

anti drug commercials are stupid. they dont even make sense to people who already smoke weed, so they're obviously trying to scare all the little kids who know nothing about it.

[daffy840]

@Pill88Dickle amen

[gannon1op]

wish my dad smoked....that would be sweeeeet

[The505Guys]

Parents who fuck ducks...have children who fuck ducks...

[zacthebold]

Hehe I remember when me and my dad used to smoke weed together.

[davidthelibrarian]

This commercial got me hooked on figuring out what the hell these "drugs" were all about. The commercials made them seem so important.

[shagnastyfo20]

I've always heard that you SHOULD talk to your children about drugs. I'm pretty sure that the same organization has a commercial right now advocating that sentiment... so yeah, he should have learned it from him, and if it was ganja in that box he made a smart choice in staying away from harmful "hard drugs".

[Fitzee3]

classic...

[TonyShow82]

I remember this commercial. And yeah, by looking at the father he does look like a yuppie scum cocksucker who had tons of low self esteem and had to do drugs to look rockin ,cool and and popular so his fellow schoolmates wouldn't have to step on his face for his fuckin lunch money. He knew it too that's why he backed down in the first place. "Son, I'm sorry you get your ass kicked in school and if it's any help to you, I'll let you keep these drugs just so you can keep your cool image." pffft!

[nickrod32]

fuck alcohol fuck tobbacco but I will smoke weed

[whydoyoukeeptalking]

seriously they didnt show the part after when they start bonding!

[SENBIE]

They both lit up after that, an got toasted in a bonding experience XD

[fireoutlaw23]

Well hey that's good news! Smoking together is a good bonding experience

[captxena31]

i remeber this psa as a young child

[hollywoodjokerpicalo]

in my daily bag sessions at lunch I used every veration of this commercial in my jokes.

[DrinkDrankPunk72]

@Pill88Dickle He is mad cause the kid is smoking his stash

[Boninja88]

I yell "You alright, I learned it by watching you" when people cut me of in conversations.

[Kind0909]

@Boninja88 LMAO ME TOOO!!!

[Fujimori234]

Okay, um, my dad drinks and smokes and I would never do that in my life, so...

[frankster262]

@Fujimori234  well you sir are a queer

[Fujimori234]

@frankster262 lol! I'm a girl dude. :P

[frankster262]

@Fujimori234 oh , idk u should atleast drink then

[mothershipish1]

im living proof that thats not true

[easkateman]

My parents caught me stealing their stash... They just yelled at me, didn't care if I did it aslong as It was my money lol.

[evilmasterstudios]

that was really 1987? Now I feel old.

[Mattraction513]

76 People didn't learn anything

[Booharv1]

@Pill88Dickle superlawlz

[Booharv1]

lawlz

[DatSmellsStinkowiff]

This psa was supposed to prevent drug use, but all it did was provide a funny quote to say while doin drugs.

[PioneerGrrrl]

When I was little, I always wanted to see what was in the box. I was ticked they never showed it.

[CelesteK]

This ad is BULLSHIT! Not every kid who's parents uses/use drugs will end up using drugs.

[Defensemen619]

@CelesteK Its just a commerical...shut the fuck up

[CelesteK]

@Defensemen619 I was just saying is all. Don't bite my head off. I still think it's bullshit because I never wanted to be like anybody but myself. And my dad used to drink himself stupid. :P

[NKDP1]

I wish my dad smoked weed :(

[ANG3LW1NG5]

At least he's using good beans

[travlinbluez]

"Son, that's not possible. I haven't smoked pot since the late 60's when your mother and I made love like wild banshees in the mud at Woodstock.

This is the 80's, kid, and I'm a businessman now. What you saw me doing was cocaine. Please tell me you weren't trying to snort marijuana..."

[lloklkine]

no wonder he wanted to know so bad the kids was probbly better than the dads lol!

[YarblesYarblesYarble]

@Pill88Dickle Most brilliant Youtube comment ever.

[MrProgrampro]

Btw, people, he cut the kid off at "Dad, I-" because he knew from his tone that the kid was about to deny it again. He didn't want just ANY answer, he wanted the answer to his question ("Where did you get this?")

[lovesskiingpow]

HAH I remember getting busted for the first time! Goood Times!

[siCfr3ak83]

Ha I remember these...damn I'm old

[godstomper]

What kept me from wanting to experiment with any drugs( you name it) was the fact most of the in -crowd people that I despised in school used them .

[Dawafflemaster]

@godstomper  Yeah bro... I couldn't agree with that more.

[RickyJ108]

You paid HOW MUCH? Son, this is absolute ditch weed!

[sonicfan3346]

YOU STOLE MY DRUGS, YOU BASTARD! I'LL KILL YOU!

[xRaineDropsx]

"Answer me"

"I-*is cut off*"

Jeez I wonder why he can't answer -____-

[SeeYouNextTuesday0]

"Where did you learn to be such a bad actor?"

"I learned it from you, alright!"

[Demonslayer232]

"You, okay? I learned it from watching you!" Way to go, dad.

[RandomHero486]

I'd be like "Hold the fuck up, what was mom looking through my closet for?"

[BestiaTerra]

Oh and this was made by partnership for a drug free America. And they are sponsored by cigarette and alcohol companies. Funny, drugs paying to get rid of drugs.

Anyone wanting to learn the unbiased truth about marijuana should look up the documentary The Union. It answers all the major questions on pot. All 10 parts are on YouTube

[BestiaTerra]

If it wasn't pot that he found I'd take this seriously. But the truth is that it doesn't hurt you. And that's been proven by DEA sponsored scientists. If it was pills, heroin, cocaine, or even cigarettes and alcohol this would make sense

[ChelseasInsanity]

I'm never going to do drugs at all.... hasn't even crossed my mind. I mean i'm 15 right now and I don't want to screw up my life. I'm old enough to start choosing the path of life i'm going to be on till I die, lets NOT make it shorter. Same goes with ciggerettes. Not gonna smoke those either....

[honeegrrl]

This isn't true in all cases. There are parents who do drugs and their kids turned out okay, in face, the kids don't even want anything to do with the parents. One of my college friends mom was on crack (she's clean now) and my friend is a lawyer, she would always tell me I have to make it on my own

[nightmuffin937]

Very Classic and indeed Iconic.

[TheJboy88]

It's not very often that a PSA was directed more towards the parents than the kids but in a way it makes sense.

Kids are very often influenced by the actions of their parents, especially at their earliest ages so if they were to turn to drugs, the influence their parents had on them, either positive or negative, might have been a contributing factor to that.

I wonder how the parents of the time reacted to their being the ones told to shape up?

[MPHswayze]

Commercials like this un-demonized marijuana for me when I was a kid. I mean, how could such a corny, cheesy message be taken seriously? The dad was a cartoon character. A used car saleman who smokes weed? Cool beans, pop.

[mattwu911]

Parents who use drugs grow creepy mustaches.

[MrSammy2014]

Dad: Where did you get this?

Son: Um Well I-

Dad: Wait a minute. (checks cigar box under his bed) YOU BASTARD YOU STOLE MY POT I'LL KILL YOU!!!!!!

[getduloh]

epic shit eating fail face at 0:25

[CrazyEyes00100]

what kind of parents do drugs in front of there kids without sharing that's just bad parenting...

[chrisgonzo9]

@CrazyEyes00100 yeah don't boggart the joint, that's just rude, that's gonna teach the kid to boggart the joint when he's having a circle

[russXhunter]

Oh snap

[razieltalos]

I could never take my eyes off that moustache, "I learned it from your moustache Dad!"

Whatever happened to "do as I say and not as I do" thats what my parents told me, which is why I dont do drugs. And what about the good old days where you find your kid messing around with drugs and you slap the shit out of him or go the "Scared Straight" route

[Modey3]

@Pill88Dickle

Don't forget to take some ritalin also!

[NosajDurmit]

I like how its just like a box full of random drugs.

Who is he? Hunter S. Thompson?

[Intoxiqated]

"I LEARNED IT BY WATCHING YOU DAD"

"Well then fuck it, lets spark up son!"

[TheEnviousdominous]

I think the look on the dad's face was that of relief. 

[TrustMeImmaLobster]

Haha im stoned....and my dad smoked weed and sold along time ago lol i did learn from him

[JJWiemer1]

hahhhhahahahahahahaha are you serious

[JoshBroz]

This is pretty pointless, at the beginning of the video he is trying to explain and he keeps interrupting him wtf?

[JusRock247]

Who the hell smokes anymore..i mean i personally don't do it but everyone I know that does (or used to) is realizing its a waste of time and money ..like my friend said "sober is the new movement."
