Red Canning It

When at a party, while everybody is drinking, you are sipping on non-alcoholic beer.

The word and usage comes from the red cans of Old Milwaukee Non-Alcoholic beer.

Normally, red canning it, refers to Mormons who don't drink alcohol (5%), responsible people who don't drink alcohol(5%), or potential sex offenders who generally do drink alcohol but just are looking to "score" on a pissed-drunk young (most likely under-aged) woman (90%).

Despite the reason, every person red canning it, appears to be drinking and therefore:
1. receives no questions about not drinking;
2. does not appear gay;
3. receives minimal peer pressure;
4. gets all the numbers; and

5. makes out with all the girls who are drunk.
Dude One: Dude Two! She totally made out with me while I was red canning it. I remember the whole thing!

Red Bullshevik

The act of shotgunning a vodka Red Bull.

Directions:
1) Cut a hole in a can of Red Bull, the same way you'd shotgun a beer
2) Pour out some of the Red Bull (into a cup, not to be wasted)
3) Pour in at least two shots of vodka
4) Gently swish the fluids side to side to mix up the vodka and Red Bull
5) Shotgun it
6) Enjoy a vodka red bull with the cup of red bull you now have on the side
Wow, apparently I was so drunk and over-caffeinated on Red Bullsheviks that I slapped an old lady last night.
