Me when someone brings up drugs at work

This is a two-panel reaction meme using the popular Dr. Steve Brule character template to depict a relatable workplace scenario. The top overlay text sets the context: "Me whenever someone brings up drugs at work". In the first panel, an off-screen speaker asks "Do you smoke marijuana?", and the curly-haired suited character responds with feigned confusion: "Mariwhatta?". The second panel is a close-up of the same character doubling down on his lie, stating "I've never heard of it.". The humor derives from the obvious falsehood of the character's claim, as he pretends not to know what marijuana is to avoid professional repercussions at work, despite clearly being aware of the substance.

This meme features text at the top depicting a conversation between a patient and their doctor: the doctor first asks 'Do you smoke?', to which the patient replies 'No'. The doctor then asks 'Ever smoked?', and the patient answers 'Yes, a pack a day for 25yrs, I quit last week'. Below the text is a still from the animated film *Despicable Me* of the character Sergio, popularly used in the 'disappointed/unimpressed guy' meme template, staring with a deadpan, skeptical expression at the person speaking to him, marked '-Doc' at the bottom right to indicate the character is representing the doctor in the conversation. The joke highlights the absurdity of patients intentionally misleading or omitting critical health information from their doctors, as the patient technically did not lie about currently smoking, but omitted their decades-long heavy smoking history that their doctor obviously needs to know.

Stop lying to your doctor. They'll know.
