You Can't Get Addicted to a Plant

Text on the meme

Peter, I want to talk to you about your love for Mary Jane. It's gotten out of hand. You're seriously addicted and need help. You don't get it, uncle. You can't get addicted to a plant. It has medical effects and it increases my intelligence. I've seen tons of videos on YouTube explaining it. I'll send you a link. Also it's much safer than alcohol.

What it means

A two-panel reaction meme shows an older man confronting Peter about his apparent addiction to Mary Jane, while Peter, wearing a colorful knitted hat and dreadlocks, confidently argues that cannabis is a medicinal plant that improves intelligence and is safer than alcohol. The joke is the exaggeratedly sincere defense of marijuana use and the reliance on YouTube videos as proof, making it useful as a humorous reaction to someone rationalizing a questionable habit.
