* [[The Alcoholic]]: The original Reginald Cuftbert, during ''Fallout 3'', succeeded at picking up addictions to practically every habit-forming substance in the Capital Wasteland. Appropriately, 'addiction to new substance' became one of the parts of their [[Drinking Game]].

** In New Vegas, Cuftbert manages to become addicted to alcohol just by drinking a single bottle of whiskey. This is also the reason why they later picked up [[Bottle Fairy|Cass]] as their companion due to her [[Booze Based Buff|Whiskey-related perk]], though she later [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here|ditches him]] due to his [[Stupid Evil]] nature.

*** It's even sillier than that: due to a quirk of the game's addiction system, you can't actually be addicted to "alcohol". Cuftbert instead gets addicted ''to whiskey specifically''. He later picks up addictions to scotch (a specific type of whiskey!), beer and wine.<ref>It's actually just an interface bug. The addiction is listed as alcohol in the Pip-Boy, and reacts to any alcohol consumed.</ref>

* [[Ascended Meme]]: During a rousing session of ''[[Assassin's Creed II (Video Game)|Assassin's Creed II]]'''s "[[Exactly What It Says On the Tin|Run Over Pedestrians With Your Horse]]" minigame (troper's warning: Said minigame [[Video Game Cruelty Potential|may not exist outside of Josh's demented imagination]]), Rutskarn began singing [[They Might Be Giants]]' "Older", a reference to Shamus' famous "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQrC_C6SexI Rollercoaster Bowling]" video.

* [[Drinking Game]]: Has an official one. Take a shot if (1) The main character dies. (2) If all contributors talk over each other at the same time. (3) Whenever the game they're playing gets compared to whatever game it's a sequel/[[Spiritual Successor]] of (double that if it's by Shamus). (4) Whenever the game crashes on-screen. (5) Whenever Josh mucks up in combat and starts blaming the interface, swears or uses his [[Catch Phrase]]. (6) Whenever said mucking up causes a near-death experience that causes him to spam healing items. Other options depend more on which game is played, such as substance abuse in ''Fallout'' and the 'rogue cell' gag in ''Mass Effect 2''.
