Line 47:
* One ''My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic'' fanfic, "Once Bitten, Twice Shy", gave this reaction to ''[[Shrinking Violet|Fluttershy]]'' of all ponies on a disastrous [[Not a Date|not-date]] with Twilight Sparkle. After one setback, Rarity gives her a glass of wine to help get her confidence up. Following a particularly stressful incident, Fluttershy ''drains'' most of the wine bottle and has to be magically sobered up before she's able to stand, let alone go back into the restaurant.
* In ''[[The Ballad of Twilight Sparkle]]'', Twilight Sparkle has this reaction to a movie studio's legal team trying to intimidate her into signing over the rights to her likeness for a movie the Great and Powerful Trixie is making. It probably didn't help that Twilight had thoroughly embarrassed herself in front of Trixie several times earlier in the fic.
* In a [[Bleach]] fanfic called "Saying I Will", the final major arc of the story has Byakuya drinking a 1000-year old Sake after finding out that {{spoiler|Ichigo is the deceased Soul King's nephew and is next in line for the throne. Made worse by the fact his reaction is all recorded on tape.}}
* In ''[[Through a Diamond Sky]]'', as Flynn's working on escaping his captors, he remarks to himself that he needs a nap, a cold beer, and a ''long'' talk with his wife; not necessarily in that order.
* In the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanfic [http://www.fimfiction.net/story/16112/Whispers Whispers], the mere mention of [[Royal Brat|his brothers]] is enough to get Arcanus chugging on wine without looking back, despite insisting ''a few seconds ago'' that he doesn't care for it.
Line 61:
* ''[[Galaxy Quest]]'': "Where are you going?" "To see if there's a pub!"
* Played with in ''[[Star Trek VI]]: The Undiscovered Country'': After the not-quite-successful diplomatic dinner involving Kirk, Chancellor Gorkon, their respective senior staffs, and rather too much Romulan Ale, the Klingons have just beamed off the Enterprise, at which point Bones leaves the transporter room proclaiming, "I'm going to go find a pot of black coffee".
** In [[Star Trek: First Contact]], Zephram Cochrane was found very inebriated in a bar after the Borg shell his base camp--though it was implied that he could [[The Alcoholic|often be found there]] Borg attack or no.
* ''[[Indian in The Cupboard]]'' had the cowboy character stumble hungover out of the titular magic cupboard, unaware that he'd been transported through time and space (and size). After swearing to lay off the hooch several times in a row, he realizes that he's surrounded by giants, and proclaims, "Oh my dear sweet Lord. I need me a drink."
* Played with in ''[[Airplane!]]'' by Lloyd Bridges' character, Steve McCroskey, progressing from smoking, to drinking, to amphetamines, to sniffing airplane glue.
Line 293:
* GM Dave of ''[http://www.bannable-offenses.blogspot.com/ Bannable Offenses]'' is quite the heavy drinker, mostly due to the fact that he spends 8 hours a day (plus whatever he plays at home) often dealing with the dumbest members of [[Final Fantasy XI]] in existence, and will occasionally (read, very, very often) use this phrase or a variation thereof. Unsurprisingly, his most vicious (and therefore funniest) punishments come on the rare occasion when he runs out of Jack Daniels. Lord help you if you anger him then...
* [[Protectors of the Plot Continuum]] go through [[Brain Bleach|Bleeproducts]] like water, after most missions.
* Subverted in ''[[The
* It's not alcoholic, but the version of Kyle Rayner in ''[[DC Nation]]'' frequently "needs a sketchpad" in the aftermath of shit hitting fan.
* Dr. Shelton says [http://z7.invisionfree.com/thegangoffive/index.php?showtopic=7319&view=findpost&p=9228842 something like this] when he starts hearing a voice in his head.
