Your mom is totally on drugs
Scientific American seems to think it's funny that old people do drugs. So funny that they wrote a whole funny article about it:
It’s the kind of tongue-in-cheek concept that might have percolated out of the subversive imagination of R. Crumb, underground cartoon chronicler of the 1960s. Grandma and Grandpa are passing the time in their rockers—and passing a joint back and forth as they recall their youthful marijuana-smoking days in Haight-Ashbury. In fact, according to three investigators at the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the image is no joke.
Writing in the journal Neuropsychopharmacology, Gayathri J. Dowling, Susan R. B. Weiss and Timothy P. Condon warn that many aging baby boomers, long accustomed to using illicit drugs for recreation and medicinals of all kinds for treating whatever ails them, will carry their love affair with drugs into old age. Medicine is only beginning to appreciate the consequences.
All they have is this teaser on their website. I suppose if you want actual pictures of old folks swapping Oxycontins for blunts, or a recount of grandpa's latest pants-off acid freakout, you just have to go and pick up the rag.
