Ohh gotcha. Thanks for the explanation! I probably would’ve got that if I was aware of that meth tagline. Never heard that before somehow.

The joke is that “speed” is also the street name for several stimulants and it looks like Pinkie is taking the salad bar approach to them in this comic.
I made it seem like I was calling attention to this (lifting the popular “Meth: not even once” tagline), then performed a bait-and-switch by instead expounding on the movie Speed rather than the variety of drugs.
@Tetrominon
Well that I can understand. I recall seeing knock offs of Casablanca before.
Still don’t get how it relates to this page though. I’ve seen Speed and nothing about this page makes me think of it.
@PhantomLogic
Much like Alien and Die Hard, Speed spawned its own entire (if short-lived, comparative to the two given examples) sub-genre of “That One Movie Everyone Loved, Except…” imitators and knock-offs.

I’m gonna need this explained to me like I’m 7 ’cause I do not get what meme reference is being made on this page or how it relates to the movie, Speed.
Yes, it’s another fine performance by Dennis Hopper and a good, if stereotypical, showing by Sandra Bullock (though Reeves’ performance was widely panned). Yes, it established an entire suspense genre meme. But honestly the relevance is gone.
