Portal Cake

[William Grim]

Here I am to shamelessly promote a cake... or am I?  It could be all a lie!

This Birthday Cake Is A Lie

My girlfriend bought this cake, took the photo, and posted it on digg!  It was all for her sister's birthday last Friday.

[Ross Mead]

Haha!  That's awesome! :lol:

God, I love that game!   :D

[bandyguy]

Anyway, this cake is great
It's so delicious and moist...

I love Portal

[Shaun Martin]

Yay Portal.

"There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I invited your best friend the companion cube. Of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come either because you don't have any other friends because of how unlikable you are. It says so here in your personnel file: Unlikable. Liked by no one. A bitter, unlikable loner whose passing shall not be mourned. SHALL. NOT. BE. MOURNED. That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you're adopted, so that's funny too."

Ahh, GLaDOS...

"Still Alive" Credits Song

Lyrics:

This was a triumph
Iââ,¬â,,¢m making a note here: huge success
Itââ,¬â,,¢s hard to overstate my satisfaction
Aperture Science
We do what we must because we can
For the good of all of us
Except the ones who are dead
But thereââ,¬â,,¢s no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the science gets done and you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive

Iââ,¬â,,¢m not even angry
Iââ,¬â,,¢m being so sincere right now
Even though you broke my heart and killed me
And tore me to pieces
And threw every piece into a fire
As they burned it hurt because
I was so happy for you
Now these points of data make a beautiful line
And weââ,¬â,,¢re out of beta, weââ,¬â,,¢re releasing on time
So Iââ,¬â,,¢m glad I got burned, think of all the things we learned
For the people who are still alive

Go ahead and leave me
I think Iââ,¬â,,¢d prefer to stay inside
Maybe youââ,¬â,,¢ll find someone else to help you
Maybe Black Mesa
That was a joke, ha ha, fat chance
Anyway this cake is great
Itââ,¬â,,¢s so delicious and moist
Look at me still talking when thereââ,¬â,,¢s science to do
When I look out there it makes me glad Iââ,¬â,,¢m not you
Iââ,¬â,,¢ve experiments to run, there is research to be done
On the people who are still alive

And believe me I am still alive
Iââ,¬â,,¢m doing science and Iââ,¬â,,¢m still alive
I feel fantastic and Iââ,¬â,,¢m still alive
And while youââ,¬â,,¢re dying Iââ,¬â,,¢ll be still alive
And when youââ,¬â,,¢re dead I will be still alive
Still alive
Still alive

We should have a CAOS event to go through the entire game... it only takes like 3 hours, but it's well worth it!   :D

I have purposely not started playing Portal despite the insane desire to do so. After my recent move to Tennessee and now getting offered a new and amazing job...I still don't have time to play it!

one day...

one day......

[bandyguy]

Dosn't even take a whole day, like somebody said, it only takes about 3 hours or something and will 3 hours well spent.

I like how it says you can donate your organs to the girl scouts self esteem fund.

What is your new job in TN?

Also, that cake was made of ice cream, and it was yummy!  I haven't yet played Portal; in fact, I hadn't heard of it until last Friday.

It's a design position for a media company in Knoxville.  They run a well known television network and sell goods. I'd rather not say the name as my resignation with my current company has not fully gone though (put it in today).  Use your google skills, you'll find it.  I'm looking forward to the work though.  I'll be doing requirements & design for internal business applications. I'm pretty excited, they're using Agile, Scrum specifically.
