* In ''FamilyGuy'', the episode where Peter and Lois had a band. They used Marijuana as the group's muse and it doesn't take much to get them completely baked, rolling on the floor and moaning nonsense (while thinking that they were singing a great song while unicorns danced in the background).

DeanBitterman or the DotingParent is tricked or cajoled into smoking up, or more likely eating a pot brownie. Five minutes later, they're [[MushroomSamba riding a unicorn through a rainbow]], or [[IntoxicationEnsues arguing with the plants]], or [[DisneyAcidSequence being chased by musical notes in time to the background music]]. Expect to hear Steppenwolf's "Magic Carpet Ride" or "White Rabbit" by Jefferson Airplane. It's almost as if they've actually taken a powerful hallucinogen. Yes, they've found out that in their universe, marijuana is LSD.

Marijuana is one of the less potent psychoactive drugs. It causes euphoria, disassociation, hunger and occasionally paranoia. It also takes a little while to get used to it - often, people doing it their first time don't feel any effects at all. Even very high doses won't cause hallucinations in 99% of the population.

*** So...perfectly safe to use and not addictive at all. How nice.

* In ''FamilyGuy'', the episode where Peter and Lois had a band. They used Marijuana as the group's muse. Having already done so much of it in their past for it to have long term effects on their intelligence, it doesn't take much to get them completely baked, rolling on the floor and moaning nonsense (while thinking that they were singing a great song while unicorns danced in the background). Chris then gives a rant at the end about how Marijuana contains [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thc THC]]. It does, in fact, contain the substance, but not enough to cause LSD-like effects. Instead it causes long term damage, which Chris [[ShownTheirWork correctly points out]] before Stewie interrupts him by singing show tunes.
** Which, in [[HilariousInHindsight hindsight,]] is hypocritical considering the fact that "Episode 420" was pro-marijuana, and {{Seth MacFarlane}} himself admitted to enjoying his "doobage" from time to time.
*** How is it hypocritical to state the dangers of a drug and not to use it irresponsibly?

** There was one episode where Leo accidentally fed his marijuana stash to his dog, who ends up having such a hallucination. Although considering [[NewAgeRetroHippie who's stash it was]], it's entirely plausable that it [[FridgeBrilliance actually ''was'' laced with acid]].

** There was one episode where Leo accidentally fed his marijuana stash to his dog, who ends up having such a hallucination. Although it wouldn't exactly be out of the question that the stash was laced with acid considering that it belonged to ''[[NewAgeRetroHippie Leo]]''.

** There was one episode where Leo accidentally fed his marijuana stash to his dog, who ends up having such a hallucination. But since it was ''Leo's'' stash, it's not exactly out of the question that it ''could'' have been laced with acid.

* Averted and parodied in ''KingOfTheHill'', when Hank accidentally smokes a joint (barely even getting a whiff of it) but feels no genuine ill biological effects. Of course, Hank is so [[WrongGenreSavvy familiar with this trope]] that he naturally assumes that the drug has transformed him into a crazed maniac and caused him to black out (in actuality, his "blackout" was just a much-needed nap).

* ''ReeferMadness'', in which marijuana is like acid laced with speed.

* ''[[TransformersFilmSeries Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen]]'' features something more like "marijuana is PCP": Sam's mom eats one hash brownie and goes completely insane, even assaulting a full-grown man. Granted she's just shy of a {{Cloudcuckoolander}} as it is, but still...

* ''{{Dumbo}}'''s "Pink Elephants On Parade" sequence is Alcohol Is LSD.

* In ''CloneHigh'', ''raisins'' are like LSD...ON ACID!
