    Chell: For science, GlaDOS! *ka-blooey*

  7. HughbertEsq on September 19th, 2011 2:02 pm

    And so Chell and Wheately continued their lives travelling across the desolated and occupied wastes of North America, invalidating both arguments and the ionic bonds holding all the squishy bits of Combine Soldiers and Synths together.

  8. HughbertEsq on September 19th, 2011 2:04 pm

    Well your precious RAWKET LAWNCHAIR won't save you from your FEVER!
    MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    get it… noses red……

  9. NekoKnight on September 19th, 2011 2:08 pm

    I have a rocket launcher. Your GLaDOS is invalid.

    EDIT: Joke Intercepted. I realized Shawn already made the joke right after posting, and my reaction was the same as GLaDOS in panel 4.

  10. Dhamon45 on September 19th, 2011 2:08 pm

    Glados just got..

    *Puts on sunglasses*

    …spanked!

    *Random guitar riff out of nowhere*

  11. tveye on September 19th, 2011 2:09 pm

    I'm assuming that rocket launcher was designed by Black Mesa…

  12. Gearheadmk2 on September 19th, 2011 2:15 pm

    As an deticated engineer player, I can assure you that explosives are the best answer to anything.
    Becuase they blow my stuff up every fucking time.

    I've figured it out! rel="nofollow">Guns solve everthing Do you need money? Your gun can earn you an interest-free loan at the bank. rel="nofollow">Is your hunting partner laughing at you? A gun says "shut up" louder than you can. Someone showing off his guns to the ladies? Show them you have more

    Guns = Better standards of living.

  14. KungFuDeli on September 19th, 2011 2:18 pm

    Dear Glados,
    Fuck you and your cake! This is triumph but not for you. I have rockets! Burn in lava, you bitch!
    Sincerely
    Chell

  15. therandombear on September 19th, 2011 2:27 pm

    The rocket launcher was shooting rockets filled with lemon grenades, silly :P

  16. Hejiru on September 19th, 2011 2:28 pm

    Hey look buddy, I'm a test subject. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is space?" Because that would fall under the purview of your conundrums of astronomy. I solve practical problems. Fer instance, how am I gonna get some fatty fatty no-parents to give me my cake?

    The answer… is a gun.
    And if that don't work… USE MOAR GUN.

  17. Skrist on September 19th, 2011 2:30 pm

    Wow, that's almost depressing in this context >.<

  20. Zain_Bloodbane on September 19th, 2011 2:42 pm

    Chell put on sunglasses but didn't make a CSI meme. This submission is invalid.

  21. MasqueNoMercy on September 19th, 2011 2:42 pm

    it reminds me of this commercial from a few years back:
    rel="nofollow">

  22. TheFancyPants on September 19th, 2011 2:47 pm

    Ah, the asterisk. It always amuses me when they are used for swearing censorship, when really we all know what it's trying to say. so the question is, do they really do anything besides prevent the younger ones not exposed to such language from knowing what's going on?
    Really, aside from that it may as well be spelled out. (writing philosopher mode over)

  23. Psychopatrick88 on September 19th, 2011 2:47 pm

    Hmmm… I seem to recall that from somewhere… A certain webcomic. About cats. And video games. Can't seem to remember what it was called >.>

  24. CriticalQuit on September 19th, 2011 2:49 pm

    Portal 2 would have been interesting if the game had taken more from TF2 than just hats…

  25. CriticalQuit on September 19th, 2011 2:50 pm

    Horatio doesn't have a copyright on sunglasses. Sometimes normal people just wear them to be badass.

    That's like saying cake can never be mentioned unless it's a Portal "cake is a lie" joke. There are people who say that. Those people are called "insufferable morons."

  26. Jimmy on September 19th, 2011 2:52 pm

    I love this SO MUCH.

  27. MasqueNoMercy on September 19th, 2011 2:52 pm

    now why would you, a person on a video game website with an icon of a cat be thinking of something such as that?

  28. Zyquux on September 19th, 2011 2:54 pm
  29. Zain_Bloodbane on September 19th, 2011 2:54 pm

    Twas a jest good sir. I did mean to imply that a joke in regards to the meme was necessary. It was just my attempt at a witty comment.

  30. Psychopatrick88 on September 19th, 2011 2:55 pm

    Well, to be fair, the said feline in my pic is an Iriomote cat. Not a normal housecat. and it doesn't talk about video games.

  31. MasqueNoMercy on September 19th, 2011 3:00 pm

    fair enough, but i actually saw the commercial before the comic brought it up ::puts on hipster glasses::

  32. C__F on September 19th, 2011 3:06 pm

    Alert!
    The enemy has taken our artificial intelligence!

  33. Psychopatrick88 on September 19th, 2011 3:19 pm

    Well yeah, the commercial obviously came first. :P

  34. TheAceOfSkulls on September 19th, 2011 3:26 pm

    Another Halo joke on Halolz? What blasphemy is this? I thought we were about TF2 and Pokemon content with the occasional Minecraft piece thrown in.

  35. TheKingOfGraves on September 19th, 2011 3:29 pm

    It is important to note that before flaming, TheAceOfRetards is actually pointing out the irony of the site's name when one looks at the content rather than just running his mouth. With that understood, feel free to go after him in any other way (such as finding mistakes in grammar or by mentioning the incident of August 9th to him).

  36. TheKingOfGraves on September 19th, 2011 3:36 pm

    One can assume they refer to the bizarre tendency to censor the middle of the words with a noise (where you're able to identify the word by the beginning and ending sounds). This also applies when the asterisk is used to censor the vowel, as often this is the effect heard with words such as "Fuck" as the "-ck" is it's own individual sound, which ends up meaning that what one hears is "F-" and "-ck," though sometimes the fact that it's a "Fu-" is more obvious due to how one pronounces the F proceeding the u.
    If this is where this comes from then it makes more sense than writing it as "FBLEEPCK," or as "F*bleep*ck." Also, as you can see in the latter example, sound effects are often enclosed in *'s so it makes sense to use them as a substitution.
    (Yes we just had this sort of philosophical discussion below a picture of Chell blowing up GLaDoS with a Rocket Launcher)

  37. Psychopatrick88 on September 19th, 2011 3:46 pm

    Speaking of, I wonder if anyone actually recognizes what this cat is from.

    GLaDos: KIDDING! I WAS KIDDING!

  41. CriticalQuit on September 19th, 2011 4:18 pm

    You'll find that even in the form of a witty comment, demanded adherence to an overused joke by virtue of containing a key element to that joke is something most intelligent humorists find unbearably droll and torturous.

  42. Skrist on September 19th, 2011 4:19 pm

    Gamers also solve everything… as well… AIN'T LIFE GRAND?!

  43. TheInsaneWombat on September 19th, 2011 4:20 pm

    Looks like GLaDOS was on….

    *shades*

    A rocket to insanity.

    Yes. I did just make a ponies joke. About a terrifying ponies fanfic.

  44. TheFancyPants on September 19th, 2011 4:21 pm

    Thank you, I applaud your observation of the asterisk cutting into the middle of the words, which I had intended to mention but somehow did not use. That way we do see enough of the swear to know exactly what is intended. there is also the limited "1337" censor such as @$$, which is about as effective as the cutting into the middle.
    With a full censor one could have other words inferred. However, this is generally limited by the situation and certain words would make no sense upon the context. For instance this case is for the sake of a meme. So, to once again touch upon my original thought:
    What is the point of 'partial' swearing?
    The only conclusion I have come to is it is to divert the swear from those who have not yet learned of such language. Somewhat admirable, as this means it's for the innocence of (mostly) children.

  45. Skrist on September 19th, 2011 4:22 pm

    I like the idea for this e-peen thing… it makes people think I'm here for fame instead of here to entertain. Then I just when… meh.

  46. Skrist on September 19th, 2011 4:39 pm

    I shall leave you with this… use it wisely!

    Thanks Shawn, for rubbing the fact that Mari0 is still not out yet right in everyone's faces. By the way guys, not tetris is pretty damn awesome. (it's made by the same people who are making Mari0)

    Use more gun

    I thought that rocket launcher looked like the one from halo. Thanks for confirming my hunch!

  58. SirNumel on September 19th, 2011 6:12 pm

    Indeed, that is a standard issue UNSC rocket launcher.

  59. SirNumel on September 19th, 2011 6:23 pm

    It also caters to those of us who prefer not to see swears and "vulgarity" in full. Even though we know full well what is implied by the partial blocking of the word, it makes us feel better that the word isn't spelled out for the world to see.

    It's difficult to put this sensation into words.

  60. Alpar on September 19th, 2011 6:37 pm

    Cool story bro, can we move on now.

  61. Drjolt on September 19th, 2011 6:42 pm

    This is so true. Think about that mortal kombat DLC, with freddy kruger? Shoot Freddy Kruger in the nuts and tell him to "GET OUT OF MY GODAMN DREAMS!"

  62. Vizardvalor on September 19th, 2011 6:45 pm

    This could work for Pokemon too. You can get those badges and beat the Pokemon League in no time with a Pokemon.

  63. Ice_Cold_Water on September 19th, 2011 6:47 pm

    yes… T_T

  64. TheInsaneWombat on September 19th, 2011 6:53 pm

    Glados is insane, Rocket To Insanity was a MLP sequel thing to Cupcakes.

    Therefore, AWFUL PUNS HO!!!!

    What you going to do when we come for you now,
    it’s the science that we all share; it’s the testing for tomorrow

    Meh, not perfect, but you get the gist of what I was trying to do.

    Heh, I just sort of liked the eyes on the cat. To me, they were saying something like "Ask me if I give a shit"

  74. Zain_Bloodbane on September 19th, 2011 8:07 pm

    Ah, just as journalists, screenwriters and authors find run-on sentences to be the same. I believe I see where you are coming from then. I also recognize that I forgot to include the word "not" betwixt the words "did" and "mean", therefore rendering my statement to prove opposite of what my original intent was. I'd like to offer my apologies for my flawed structure of wording and lack of revision.

  75. Lord_Science on September 19th, 2011 8:18 pm

  81. Lord_Science on September 19th, 2011 8:26 pm

    I believe it is done in order to keep the humor from being vulgar. For instance, watch The Daily Show, he swears quite a lot and the main audience of the show knows the swear words he says, however, it does not come off as vulgar because of the bleeping and the bleeping itself becomes humorous.

  82. Lord_Science on September 19th, 2011 8:29 pm

  83. Zyquux on September 19th, 2011 8:59 pm

    I don't think Rocket To Insanity is well known enough to make it a good joke. Iknow I've never heard of it. "Cupcakes", on the other hand is probably know to most of bronydom and possibly outside it too.

  84. primedawg9170 on September 19th, 2011 10:02 pm

    Science has done so many things, I'm actually wondering what it hasn't done.

  85. TheFancyPants on September 19th, 2011 10:54 pm

    Indeed, I do know where you're coming from here, in fact I am practically the same way. But I find it amusing to ponder over language and how it's used, in this case how implication is viewed as better than full on reveal. almost parallel to the sensation of showing a monster on a horror film as little as possible to keep it to the viewers imagination. The monster there comes off as much more scary than could ever be designed, but here, the words are taken lighter than if there wasn't a section cut out, despite the fact that one can easily recognize the word.
    It's an interesting thought on, for lack of a better way to address it, how we can feel better about something because of TECHNICALITIES. We all know what the word is, and most people familiar with the intended word can identify it, yet we feel better when it is even partially cut up.

    Ah, the human mind. Such a wondrous thing.
