These edibles weak af Two hours later LIVE BREAKING NEWS Woman accidentally joins search party looking for herself 4 20
The image shared here is a humorous meme that presents a screenshot of what appears to be a news broadcast. The forest setting depicted in the picture conveys the mood of a typical search and rescue operation with trees and a misty atmosphere, enhancing the seriousness one would expect from a news report of this nature.
At the top of the image, there is a caption in quotes that reads, "These edibles weak af." This statement is a slang way to say that the edible cannabis products someone consumed are not very strong or effective. The use of "af" is internet slang for "as f***", used to emphasize the point being made.
Beneath the initial statement, the subtitle "Two hours later:" suggests a time lapse and implies a connection to the news report shown below. This jump in time is a common comedic device that sets up the audience for a twist or punchline based on the expectations raised in the first part.
The main focus of the meme is the news report section, which features a banner with the words "LIVE" and "BREAKING NEWS". The headline of the news report reads, "Woman accidentally joins search party looking for herself". This headline alone is an unusual and comical situation, as it suggests an obliviousness on the part of the woman that is humorous and unexpected.
Additionally, there is a timestamp in the news report that reads "4:20", which could be interpreted as a subtle nod to cannabis culture, as this number has become synonymous with marijuana consumption. This Easter egg of sorts adds another layer of humor for those familiar with the significance of the number.
The comedic value of the image lies in the absurdity of the situation. The implication is that the woman, who had presumably doubted the potency of her edibles, became so disoriented under their effects that she ended up joining the group searching for her—without realizing it was her they were searching for. This is an exaggerated scenario playing on the trope of edibles having a delayed effect that is far stronger than initially perceived, leading to unexpectedly humorous situations.
