I don't want to see anybody to miss out on Amp Game Fuel Charged Cherry Blast!

I know why people are picking on this, but it's not anything new either. You can preorder food and drink products from many places. I remember when Target had those Nuka Cola Jones Sodas on preorder, and they went on backorder nearly that same day.

Is it the fact that they're placing beta codes that it's blown up as its own meme? Because yeah, that's pretty shitty.

The "game fuel" idea is so stupid it needs to be mocked whenever it comes up

Point of order on the Nukas though. That was just relabeled Jones Berry Lemonade... the most delicious soft drink ever produced by mankind. I didn't get one of the Nukas at Target, not because I don't care about Fallout or I don't support tie-in merch; but because I would not have been able to resist turning it from a collectable item into an empty bottle.

Pitiful scrubs. Or...Pitifuel scrubs! Liquid methamphetamine injected straight into the eyeballs is the peak "gamer fuel"

Really?

Because I had this idea of using a hemodialysis machine to replace my blood with Soviet-made synthetic cyclopropane.

Well if you're dirty rich, then yeah that's a viable option...but some of us here on the ground have to make do with what we can scavange from our loved ones' corpses.
