The Alcoholic / Web Videos

---

• Ask That Guy with the Glasses has a bar for setting. The host has replaced his book with A Glass of Chianti.
• Atop the Fourth Wall: Linkara portrays the already discussed Ultimate Iron Man (and at times the regular one, when it's not wrong to do so) with a drunkard voice that's utterly hilarious. Iron Man, when he's reading from something out of the "Ultimate" series, is given (...relatively) exaggerated drunken mannerisms at all times. When it came time to read Iron Man's first appearance "Secret Origins Month", he kept the voice, built on the reasoning that it took place before the "Demon in a Bottle" storyline.
• Belkinus Necrohunt: After their first 48 hours of adventuring, when the party reaches Luna's hometown the first thing Enoch does is order a double of the strongest drink available at the tavern. When the first shot turns out to be a Gargle Blaster, he's elated, and goes back for the second.
• In ContraPoints, Natalie is pretty open about having been one, and to smaller extents still being one. Lots of videos feature alcohol either for comedic purposes or as a sign of class and style.
• The Critical Drinker is commonly depicted as a drunk Scotsman (including his thumbnail). Subverted with Jordan himself who is mostly sober.
• All of the main cast of Demo Reel has some drinking problem or another. Donnie leaves empty scotch glasses around his office, Rebecca can't handle caffeine but can drink an Italian mafioso under the table. Quinn and Karl are Irish and German ex-spies respectively, and treat drinking without each other as Serious Business. Tacoma is the only one remotely reluctant to get drunk and even he caves pretty fast to the idea. Of course, all of them have Dark And Troubled Pasts and are trying to drown their sorrows.
• Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner Party portrays Fyodor Dostoevsky as this. When his bottle of vodka is stolen by Lenore The Lady Ghost, a fellow alcoholic, he is really... delighted that they have something in common! This is part of the reason why many quickly jumped on the Lenore/Fyodor ship. Also, the humor of the situation is not lost on him.
  Dostoevsky: A spirit for a spirit !
• Harley Morenstein of Epic Meal Time rarely appears without a bottle of Jack in hand. One time, he and the others made breakfast with alcohol.
• In the "Ask Jack" video from the The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon series, Jack reveals that the reason he is still fat despite running from the Ginosaji for years is because he's developed eating and drinking problems to cope with the insanity. During the segment he's trying to eat a plate of spaghetti and drink a glass of wine while the Ginosaji is still slowly beating him to death with a spoon.
• Danielbeast in lonelygirl15 became an alcoholic at one point, as a result of trying to drown his sorrows.
• The host of The Music Video Show is shown passed out drunk in episode 24 and is the reason why she got through three Chris Brown videos in a row.
  • When discussing Black Out's "Video Games", she claims the band's name is something she would do when she is drinking.
  • One episode is dedicated to the host doing a Drinking Game. She gets hammered in less than two minutes.
• The Nostalgia Critic: The Critic is a complete and utter lightweight, but still drinks a lot. Malcolm, Tamara, and Rachel (the characters) all spend their off-time getting hammered as well. Even Santa Christ has been lampshaded to have drinking issues, while mother and daughter Aunt Despair and Hyper admit they're always drunk.
• OnCinema: Tim has been shown as one at times. He frequently drinks too much during the Oscar specials which leads to them getting quite chaotic. He even admitted he had issues during the third Oscar special.
• Overlord DVD: In-universe, OverlordDVD is one of these, but it rarely comes up in conversation.
• Ozzy Man Reviews: Eddie Stark the Australian Dad from Eddie Stark, Australian Dad (Gag Dub of Game of Thrones) has a drinking problem. Most characters keep telling him he drinks too much. Eddie is in denial and says that a man needs a drink and that he has two beers, tops. However, it affects his work and his relationships suffer because of his drinking, too.
• The eponymous Paul Powers of The Paul Powers Show, at least in a couple of videos. Notably, he seems to drink a lot more when he is alone and doesn't have a "special guest."
• Breakout Character Ciara, of The TRY Channel, has a reputation for this. In one episode, Brian brings it up ("It's what they say in the [YouTube] comments."):
  Let's just put that to rest. If that were true, I would have a lower tolerance, because my liver would be fucked.
• Vaguely Recalling JoJo: Dio Brando during the Phantom Blood spoof, which is an exaggeration of Dio tasting alcohol and enjoying it during the scene where he tests the Stone Mask on a test subject.
• During her review of Xanadu, due to not being impressed with how bored the voice actor of Zeus sounded, The Nostalgia Chick's impersonation of him made him sound ridiculously drunk instead. She herself is nearly always seen with a bottle of beer.
• In Yandere High School:
  Taurtis: Why are you drinking before school, Sam?
  Sam: Because I need a little buzz before school gets started.
  Taurtis: You have a problem, I think we need to talk about this.
  Sam: What's the big deal? I don't see what the big deal is, Taurtis.
