I think it adds adventures too, because I got 8 adventures off of boxed wine without any effects. --Raisins 12:29, 5 January 2008 (CST)

• Well on the radio, they said were going to buff one of the rare items so I re-tested adventure gain. I got a bunch of flutes and drank boxed wine, 2 bottles of rum, bottle of willer, and a monkey wrench. Got nothing but the expected adventure yield. So I have no idea how you got that many adventures from a boxed wine, but the flute is doing nothing for me. --Prestige 16:37, 5 January 2008 (CST)
  • Maybe I did have an effect, but I don't think so. I'll test after roll-over. --Raisins 20:02, 5 January 2008 (CST)

"When used with dusty bottles of wine from the Spookyraven Winecellar, all usual effects are gained, including damage from the powdered glass wine, but there is no notice in the message, only effects in the sidebar." Does this also apply to white lightning? --Raijinili 20:26, 5 January 2008 (CST)

I've always wanted to try this. A drink that gives no adventures. Anyway: You pour the steel margarita into your divine champagne flute, and it immediately begins fizzing over. You drink it quickly, then throw the flute in front of a plastic fireplace and break it. You acquire a skill: Liver of Steel You gain 0 Muscularity Point. --Shademaster00 16:42, 18 January 2008 (CST)

reference

"You drink it quickly, then throw the flute in front of a plastic fireplace and break it" i know i've seen this in a movie before, but cant remember which one. anyone remember?--Blood panther 00:18, 4 January 2008 (CST)

There's a really old film starring Claudette Colbert called Tovarich where a Russian Prince and his wife flee to France to escape the soviet revolution. They pose as servants in some rich aristocrat's house and sneak around drinking champagne and throwing the glasses into fireplaces. I also vaguely remember a pretty godawful Michael Douglas film about Nazis where they do the same thing. Additionally, there's an episode of American Dad where Stan and Francine get divorced because Stan can't perform in bed. He ends up marrying another woman and there's a scene where they smash champagne glasses in a hotel room fireplace at the end. --Trouser Fetish 10:28, 4 January 2008 (CST)

I think it's just a jewish and italian wedding tradition. Not necessarily associated with any particular movie. --Starwed 14:12, 4 January 2008 (CST)

Eh, not quite. It's a Jewish wedding tradition to stomp on and crush a wine glass. It has nothing to do with haphazardly throwing a champagne glass into the fireplace. I seem to also recall this sequence from a movie, and I know it's been parodied in other forms of media. (Update) I asked around, apparently it's an old tradition where if you smash the glasses, it's good luck for the toast. I suppose the fireplace is a pretty safe place to do so.--MaskedLihc 22:09, 4 January 2008 (CST)

Yeah, I think it's just some sort of cliché; not any reference in specific. --Southwest 02:02, 5 January 2008 (CST)

There also seems to be a possible reference to a "Hungarian Marriage" from the RPG Vampire the Requiem - there's an ability that lets a Vampire gain three "points" of blood for every two points of blood they drink so with two Vampires feeding off each other you could theroetically "create" an infinate amount of blood points. When querried about it one of the game designers said something like "Theoretically they could keep feeding back and forth between the two of them until you had enough vitae to fill up the entire universe. Only theoretically, though." (It was then addressed why this wasn't practical in a later suppliment - Ordo Dracul). Possibly not a reference at all. Possibly a reference to something else entirely - like perpetual motion devices or any sort of paradoxical thing. This is just what came to mind when I saw it. - JohnDoe244 10:08, 4 January 2008 (CST)

You're making it overly complicated. It's a reference to the fact that it would hypothetically create a sum diverging to infinity, if only they would actually let things work like that. Nothing more. This sort of thing has been around since for literally all of recorded history. --Flargen 10:12, 4 January 2008 (CST)

Could be. Hence the last few lines of my above statement. It was just the closeness of the wording. I know PVA and a few other prominant Loathers play Vampire, but I'm not awear if TPTB themselves play. Hence posting it on the talk page - because if they play then it seems like a close reference. If not then it's clearly not a reference but a general cliche. Which I thought was pretty clear from the first post I made. - JohnDoe244 10:48, 6 January 2008 (CST)

Seems like a possible reference to The Callahan's Series by Spider Robinson. After all, throwing empty glasses at the fireplace features quite heavily in it, and I wouldn't be surprised if at least one of devs have read that series. --Andemon 17:06, 4 January 2008 (CST)

I think throwing empty glasses into the fireplace is more of a meme than a particular reference.ColtsScore 11:46, 5 January 2008 (CST)

• As for the perpetual motion/paradox thing, yeah, I'm pretty sure that's what the it's a reference/it's a cliche discussion is going. : ) ColtsScore 11:52, 5 January 2008 (CST)

This: "Something that's booze, anyways -- drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass? Yo, this is bad" seems to reference this: "First class, yo this is bad/Drinking orange juice out of a champagne glass," the extended intro to the show "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air." Also, this: "Theoretically, if you had two of these, you could keep pouring something back and forth between the two of them until you formed a mass of carbon dioxide big enough to fill up the entire universe" seems to reference stuff that can be found here: "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_goo"--c6 23:26, 23 April 2008 (CDT)

Zero MP Cases

Has anyone got a 0 drunkeness booze like otori battlescar or N.O Beer to try this on? --JizWink

Dusty Bottles of Vingear consume the item and the person who used it didn't get any MP (from the forum). - JohnDoe244 10:48, 6 January 2008 (CST)

FWIW, the steel margarita w/ a champagne flute explicitly gives 0 MP. --Forsythe 23:19, 10 January 2008 (CST)

I was just coming to this page to show the steel margarita results:
