I thought it would be fun to take the Top 10 outside of the realm of gaming tonight's list will be related to gaming, the same way that I'm related to George Bush Junior, tenuously. Tonight it's the Top 10 Gaming Beverages.
Liquids, we all need 'em to survive. Some of us actually imbibe enough daily, while a good chunk of people never get enough. Some of the beverages I'm about to list here can't legally be drunk by kids in America under the age of 21, while drinking the rest could be far worse. I hope you enjoy and I'll see you at the end.
WATER
Ahh, the simplest of beverages. The world's greatest solvent. Nothing's better than an ice cold bottle or glass during a hot day. A truly great drink...and the main ingredient in all of the other drinks to come.
CHOCOLATE MILK
Who would have thought that a nasty ass glass of milk combined with a shitload of Hershey's syrup would make such a damn good drink? I wonder who first made chocolate milk? Nothing goes with every meal like a tall cold glass of brown moo juice.
PEPSI
I'm not a brand whore, but I truly prefer the soda that Pepsi-Co makes. I swore off the carbonated beverages over 2 years ago, but can still recall how good an ice-cold Pepsi could make you feel after having a shitty day.
KOOL AID
The math for making Kool Aid is simple, a cup of sugar + flavor packet + 2 quarts or less of water = a happy fat kid. Seriously, the grape flavor and the tropical punch makes my pants tight thinking about it. Nowadays its sugar-free Kool Aid for me, not as tasty, but at least the flavor is still there.
SWEET TEA
A good portion of you peeps out there don't even know what the fuck sweet tea is...well its simple, its iced tea with a SHITLOAD of sugar in it. As much as you put into the Kool Aid Up there, put that same amount in the tea and stir. It gets to go higher on the list because of the added caffeine kick.
MOUNTAIN DEW
Mountain Dew, or as I like to call it, the hard to lose 10 pounds of fat on my ass! Seriously before all you kids had all of these "energy drinks" we old timers had this and Jolt...that's it! Luckily, this drink was alot more available and prevalent than a Jolt machine at the school I attended. I just thought of how much money I spent on this sickeningly sweet soda and it hurt my brain. Truly the nectar of the gaming gods.
EGG NOG
It's too bad that this beverage only comes around when the seasons change to the fall and winter. Maybe it;s a good thing really, cause it's definately not healthy. You know that you've got a drinking problem when your favorite beverage is mainly sugar and fat....mmmmmm fat...
ANY OF THE ABOVE WITH VODKA
Vodka, the wonderful no-tell liquor. It seriously goes will with just about any drink listed above, except water...why would you want to add water to your vodka? My favorite was what we called "The Mountain Dewzer" it involved drinking half of a 1 liter MD and filling it back up with this delicious distilled potato juice.
ANY OF THE ABOVE WITH RUM
The only liquor I like more than vodka is rum. Dont forget, "rum rhymes with yum". Kids remember that one line and your teen years and twenties will just drift away on a booze filled cloud filled with regret and remorse...I kid, kids if you're going to drink, do it in moderation, and never drive...thus sayeth the Duffman.
BEER
Oh man, I love me some beer. I don't drink often but the best way to get your alcohol fixes is with a good "high-point" micro-brew. I have a hard time with domestics, and prefer imported (especially the Japanese brews), but I've never had a bad experience drinking a good beer. The true gaming elixir, to quote Homer Simpson “Here's to alcohol: the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems.” Drink up bitches!
Well, that does it. Hope you enjoyed reading my half-assed attempt at a top ten tonight. I'm gonna go get me a carton of egg nog and get to playin some Haloz. See you all online!

No Mario-branded mini Shasta cans?
Oh shit, I forgot that they did that!
http://www.smbhq.com/soda.htm
Yum. I saw these a few years after they'd been discontinued. I forget how long ago that was.
Hah, that's what I get for posting from my Wii.
I got a Super Mario Power Up Energy Drink. I'm too scared to drink it, let alone open it. I guess eventually the gas inside the can will make too much pressure and it will explode, energizing all of my consoles and electronic devices. I can even hear it making a "pshhhhffffshhhhhhhffff" noise. It's calling me.
Good job, man. However, I'm sticking with Cherry Coke/Pepsi for the top spot. A shot of rum mixed in, if the need arises.
@ Pepillou
I did something like that with a gallon of whole milk when I used to work at a grocery store. We let that bitch sit on a warm shelf hidden by other things in the warehouse for over a month. Next thing I hear is pfffffffhhhhhhbbbbbbbbttttttt and then smell the stench of hot ass hit me like a ton of bricks. I made cheese!
Oh how I miss drinking soda...
Man, I am so glad beer came out on top. Excremento, you just keep leveling up in the RPG of my heart.
Beer = a very enthusiastic yes.
Finished a 12 case of Alexander Keith's Amber Ale while playing through taht Halo game today.
Water, definitely the 2nd best thing to drink.
Am I the only one old enough to remember Jolt Cola? I hope not.
Iced tea and painkillers is my favorite gaming combination.
Shots are fun as they can be a part of gameplay, every round I win I have a shot, like a natural handicap.
I like to drink my vodka straight from the bottle, i also like mezcal with coke.
You forgot the greatest drink of all
PURPLE DRANK!
ORANGE DRANK!
I love Coke, and all pepsi did was steal their idea (Like what Sony does to Nintendo)
Also:
if your going to have a Soda that steals someone elses idea, RC for the mother fucking win ya'll.
epic list, again
What, no white Russian?
Game Fuel + rum = Win.
XXL can of Monster+bottl of Redrum= epic windom at teh halos
Beer is #1!
@ Steel Squirrel
Beer will always be #1...forever.
