Have you heard about this horrible new drug that just hit the streets? It’s a joint laced with Sudafed and Listerine. They call it Robot Bananas. Fortunately authorities will be able to jump all over this before it becomes an epidemic, thanks to a Twitter bot inspired by a comedian’s ridiculous screencaps of Ice-T‘s Fin from Law & Order: SVU talking about fake drugs.

This all started thanks to the work of comedian Sean Tejaratchi (@ShittingtonUK), who we first learned about at The A.V. Club a couple years ago. He started parodying the often silly scenarios of Law & Order: SVU‘s plots, and who better to tell us all about absurd future drugs than Ice-T’s Fin. And because sometimes the internet is actually very good, someone has created a Twitter bot (@icetsvu) dedicated to making more of these. Which isn’t just great because of how funny this premise is, but because where else would we learn about the monsters out there who are doing terrible things to kids like this.

Have you spoken to your children about the dangers of Mannequin Poppers? What about Elbow Cupcakes?

Man, it’s rough out there. Which is why we’ve become obsessed with learning as much as we can about the newest narcotics.

I think it’s safe to say we’re losing the War on Ridiculous Drugs.
But we’re glad Fin is still out there fighting the good fight. Especially when a pog comeback might be involved.

Just say no to drugs, and yes to funny Twitter bots.

The internet is a scary (and wonderful) place…
- Dancing Pennywise made us die from laughter!
- The incredibly bizarre story behind actor Crispin Glover’s debut album!
- The internet has well and truly lost its mind over Mario’s nipples!
