! CONTAMINATION ALERT!

[Masterz1337]

So a few montsh ago, I bought around 10 12packs of game fuel, before they stopped making it. I decided to stack it up next to the fridge, and I have about 3 cases left. So I went to get a new pack, and I noticed that there was a huge red puddle behind the cases. I'm stumped as to how to clean this shit up. It must be a few weeks old, and it's like, super solid, and super sticky. I've tried to clean it up witha sponge, that didn't work, and so I decided dishwash soap and vinigar would help soften it. WRONG! So then I thought, why not use steel wool, but the game fuel is hard and sticky enough that it actually shredded the steel wool, and now that is part of puddle too.

Any tips?

[S3anyBoy]

Oh wow dude, I almost hurt myself when I fell out of my chair laughing.

But, you should probably try some towels soaked in hot water, that might work. or try to peel it off like with a spatula or something.

[ima_from_America]

Ask Rob for some potatoes and make them fight the game fuel.

[Haloking365]

Haha, well, what surface is it on? As in, is it in the garage or somewhere that can get wet? Because i'd possibly suggest a power washer if you have one.

If its on something like a wood floor, there really is no way to get it off without potentially damaging the wood that i can think up. If you get it wet in any way, the floor will warp.

But if its on a hard surface like tile that cant be soaked, i'd suggest S3anyBoy's idea. You just need to make sure the water is really hot.

[Masterz1337]

It's a wood floor. I tried hot water, but it didn't do much against the center of the puddle, which is like, most of it.

[Bad Waffle]

Get a sledgehammer, and a circular saw. You might even want to try the SAWZALL. (http://www.google.com/search?q=SAWZALL) Start by cutting out the general chunk of wood afflicted by the goo, if you have the sawzall dont worry about hitting anything under the floor because it will go right through it. Be sure to use the shorter "demolition" blade that comes with the sawzall. Once you have cut it all out, take the sledgehammer and hammer AROUND the goo, but still on the cut out part. This will leverage it out of the floor so you can then pull it out, and then discard it.

From there on find a piece of plywood and a hammer+nails. Cut out a smaller sized piece of plywood using the cutout as a guide, and then place it in the hole and nail that in, providing you didnt sledgehammer out the frame and supports. Take some joint compound and start plastering it in between the holes and over the top. Then, paint the entire floor.

then put the infected wood in a large black plastic bag and drive it over to the hazardous materials dump, where professionals will take care of the rest.

[Abdurahman]

If you're gonna use a sawzall, dont get the regular one! Get the Super Sawzall!

[SnaFuBAR]

use boiling water judiciously or try steam.

i would also suggest using a sanding block and some medium grit sandpaper to try and thin out the thicker center.

[ima_from_America]

use boiling water judiciously or try steam.
Steam would take too long.

[SnaFuBAR]

Steam would take too long.

You can criticize my idea when you come up with something better than:

Ask Rob for some potatoes and make them fight the game fuel.

:v

[Emmzee]

Steam would take too long.
Yeah, Steam would take at least fifteen minutes to update alone.

[TeeKup]

Wait wait wait.

Back up.

GameFuel....Solidified?

[SnaFuBAR]

can't imagine what it does to the inside of your body :v

[TeeKup]

I can't remember how many bottles I drank....it tasted so good.....if it ever comes back out, ill never drink it again...

[Bodzilla]

Ask Rob for some potatoes and make them fight the game fuel.
:XD:

ace.

[Mass]

The question you should really be asking yourself is: "Is this flammable?"


Also, Don't think I'm joking, try using ants.

[Masterz1337]

Boiling water got that basterd. Thanks snaf!

[InnerGoat]

Chilling that crap would probably let you just chip it off

edit - rofl, guess it wasn't THAT tough

[itszutak]

Bahaha. I have a can of that stuff, emptied four months ago, near my desk.

it STILL smells like the stuff.

[Bodzilla]

wheres the pics.

[itszutak]

I want a hardness test on that solid. We might be on to some new building material here.

[p0lar_bear]

All soda solidifies like that if you get a puddle in a spot for long enough.

The water evaporates, leaving the coloring, flavor, and the corn syrup behind.

[TeeKup]

I think I'm going to stop drinking soda...

[chicane]

cut your losses. Cover the rest of the floor with it too so it will match.

[Zeph]

So how did it get there to begin with? From what I remember, you have to open soft drinks to get the liquid out.

[Neuro Guro]

Goo-Gone is the shit to remove anything like that.

[Emmzee]

Not if you think with portals.

WOAH. Can that pic be any bigger!?!

[Neuro Guro]

o, whoops

[Zeph]

Trust me, I've been thinking with portals for quite some time, but to get liquid out with portals, you need to shoot inside the can. Thus, it must be opened first.

You were saying?

[legionaire45]

Also, what if you only have the first half of the portal gun and the level designers set the orange portal inside the bottle? Well, that wouldn't explain how this could happen with every bottle. Hmm....

CVar on each client side bottle perhaps?

[Sever]

Hell, if I can get a weighted storage cube through an emancipation grill, I can get liquid out of a container without opening it. Yes, I've found out how to glitch real-life's physics engine and no, I won't show you how.

[itszutak]

Woah Atty, just take it easy with your heart condition...thing...that the doctors can't....err. You know what I mean....

Guyz I'm smart I solved the problem ok :v

[Neuro Guro]

lol yeah that was pretty funny! I also don't think that over exaggerating that was a detail that may lead up to a bigger plot not relevant to this thread, but yes, sure was funny! lol!

Holy shit, you people who drink soft drinks swallow gremlins??? That cant be good for the pooper.

also, maybe the shit melted through the can?

So, does that mean that I can replace my computer's power cord with a direct-PSU-connection Game Fuel IV drip? Or does that only work for consoles...

[LlamaMaster]

Yes.

Guy below me, wrong thread, lol.

[itszutak]

New question: How do you intravenously (IV) feed something without veins?

[Sever]

Who the hell said anything about intravenous? I'm using intravidius (indirect link to the graphics card via PSU). It works just fine, but everything has got an orange tint now.

[itszutak]

Heh, light a match near your case.

With those sugar levels...

[Mr Buckshot]

How the hell did all that soda leak out anyway? Are Tom and Jerry living in your place? Anyway, I never drink most soda pop - it's repulsive stuff imho. The only exceptions are ginger ale, carbonated lime-water, and 100-Plus.

Shame on you, stocking up on so much pop like that. Anyway, don't use a sponge. Buy a real mop (the kind with the long pole) and the type of soap that janitors use at the mall. Otherwise, use Goo-Gone, or just pour Coke on it (watch Mythbusters to understand), wait for it to mix with the Coke, and then wipe.

[JDMFSeanP]

Or lick it til its gone, GOOD STUFF.

I was digging through my halo stuff today anf found a mostly empty game fuel 20 oz bottle, and it had the same kinda caking of the remains on it.

I wish I had more D:

For laffs I bought a can.

It's cherry mountain dew.

With the master chief on the can.

SO THAT MEANS ITS SUPER GAMING POWER RIGHT?

[king_nothing_]

Flavored battery acid I'm guessing.

[klange]

I liked Game Fuel. But I have *really strange* tastes in carbonated beverages, so I'm sure I was one of like 50 total people who enjoyed it.

Game Fuel is awesome.

It gives me a 20 minute sugar rush then cramps then AWESOME GAMING SKILLS.

[Skiiran]

Game fuel was seriously the best shit ever.

Ever drunken a melted red/blue slushie? That's EXACTLY what it tasted like.

Also, the ingredients include bromine, so that might explain why it melted through the cans (and definitely the box).

[klange]

Ok, I've found two more people... That plus me leaves only 47 more to go that enjoyed it...

[itszutak]

I has a can right here. Just a sec.

Carbonated water
High fructose corn syrup
citric acid
natural flavor
(Pretty standard soda ingredients. :/ )
sodium benzoate (preserves "freshness")
gum arabic (Why the hell is this in everything >_<)
caffeine ( DUH )
Sodium citrate
Yellow 5
glycerol ester of wood rosin (Apparentally it keeps oils in water. It's also a lubricant. What the hell is it doing in this soda)
Calcium disodium EDTA ( o__o ITS A DETERGENT AND AN IRRITANT)
Yellow 6
Red 40
Brominated Vegetable Oil (Okay, that's the oil. It depresses thyroid function, causes brain damage, and you know what, I'll just link this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brominated_vegetable_oil )

Jesus christ, I'm glad I've only ever drunk one can of this stuff.

Masterz, you've drunk HOW many CASES of this?

Contamination alert indeed.

Also:


In extreme cases BVO has caused testicular damage

i wonder if THAT shit would be able to dissolve meat.

[p0lar_bear]

I love it how people panic/flip out whenever something like this happens.

Guys, a can here and there's not going to kill you or fuck with your mind. They put enough in the soda to do its job and not cause any damage to your system.

If you drink the shit every second of your life, then we're talking problems.

[Zeph]

If you consume too much of anything it will cause damage to you. Eat too many hamburgers, you'll build up too much of something you typically dont have. Pop too many bags of popcorn and you get cancer. See the trend?

[itszutak]

Same works with healthy foodstuffs as well.:eyesroll:

So me having an IV full of Red Bull is bad?

Though it would take longer to do some damage, hence the name "healthy food".

Oh shi-.

I bought 10 cases, 2 and a half are left, so thats 12 bottles per case. So around 100 since november when it was discontinued. Then I have some liter bottles stored for a special ocasion, and 2 more cases at my moms house. And me and my friend drank most of the colleges supply so.......

Wait, wouldn't you theoretically want MORE gay people? In your best interests, you should keep spreading it, as to have more options. Don't try me, though - I've got a good immune system. You won't succeed.
