6. Stoner Sloth

Most recently, Australia’s New South Wales government attempted to shame teenagers who get high with their stoner sloth campaign.
These string of PSAs were released in 2015 and absolutely failed at receiving its targeted reaction. Instead of learning from these hilariously inaccurate ads, teens turned to Twitter to ridicule it.
The PSA received such negative reactions that even Australia’s National Cannabis Prevention and Information Centre disowned the work.
Final Hit: 6 Most Ridiculous Anti-Weed PSAs
Although these ridiculous anti-weed PSAs are hilarious to watch, there’s research that proves that they weren’t effective when it came to preventing drug use.
According to a study done by Wagner and Sundar in 1999, exposure to the PSAs reduced the perceived risk of drug use and actually caused teens to be more curious about the ganja.
It may not come as a surprise that these PSAs were ineffective.
But they sure are effective when it comes to causing laughter.
