It doesn't make any sense, it's normalizing meth use..don't show healthy normal looking people who aren't on meth and have them say " I'm on meth"

Show real junkies, show how a young 18 year old attractive woman looks after 7 years on that shit with her booking photos.

Sigh...the point isn't that these normal people are saying "I'm on meth". They're saying, "Meth, I'm on it", as in they're joining a group effort to tackle meth use. The problem is that no one that came up with this campaign thought the phrase might wind up being hilarious.

I don't give a fuck what their poor attempt was.. this was a huge waste of money and only a moron would green light it.

You want to slow down meth use then ya show real junkies if that's not enough to keep ya away then tough shit..you were warned.

500K really isn't a lot when you consider the scope.

Good to see they didn't spend their entire $1.4 million budget on a 4 word, all-caps, sans-serif, meme-ready slogan:

Only $275,000 for digital and social media production/placement but they got 100x's the exposure of their $780,000 TV/Radio/Print budget. Probably could've held a contest with a scholarship prize for university or high school students to come up with an anti-drug campaign for a fraction of the cost.

My guess is that before this became a national joke, they were probably crowing about how they came in so far under budget.

Everyone is talking about the ad. Sounds like it's successful.
