For Gar --- if you have no idea what this is... OMFG just OMFG.. lol

Edit: Wait lemme guess, something to do with the cake being a lie...?

Edit2: Found it on Urban Dictionary.

"The cake is a lie."

Implies that a promised reward for one's work is false, with the one proffering the reward never intending to give it in the first place, possibly because the reward never even existed (see also: "there is no spoon"). This phrase can be used to express grief or frustration regarding any situation where there is an imbalance between effort and reward. This phrase was popularized by the game "Portal" by Valve Software Corporation.

During the game, GlaDOS, an artificially intelligent operating system and the game's passive-aggressive guide, uses the reward of cake as a motivating factor in an attempt to manipulate the player. It is first mentioned during the "impossible puzzle room", where she urges the player to "quit now and cake will be served immediately". In a later stage, the player can access a "hidden" area of the testing chamber to find a previous test participant had scrawled "The cake is a lie!" among other warning messages. Cake continues to remain the promised reward for completing the test and/or obeying GlaDOS, particularly in the final stages of the game. Finally, in the ending song, GlaDOS cheerfully sings about how "there's no sense crying over every mistake, you just keep on trying 'till you run out of cake."

In the game, cake serves as a carefully calculated motivational device, but there are suggestions that it also serves as an essence of humanity--the ability to eat cake, taste it, and experience emotional pleasure from it--which a computer cannot experience even with artificial intelligence. In this less commonly-used sense, the phrase "the cake is a lie" can also imply that one's emotions or the basis of one's emotions are false, with cake representing emotion, emotional basis, or emotional capability.

I heart companion cube

Gar gar, have you ever played any Half-life? If not, might I suggest you try it, I highly HIGHLY suggest playing Half-life 1 then 2 and episodes, then play Portal. While you can play Portal because its a stand alone, most of the things talked about in the song, are from references to the entire HL universe.

Not a big fan of Halo or first person shooters in general, thus my negligible interest in Borderlands. Something special about Half Life that I should know about that sets it apart from other first person shooters and would make me want to play it?

SUP NAVY?

I know where you live.

I know where YOU live.

Wanna come over?

Yes.

Hot girl can play the drums? Hot girl just got hotter.

She's even better live. Saw them last week. Had row 13 seats.

Garau, something that sets Half-Life apart from the other FPS's that you dont enjoy so much is, not only is half life the best first person shooter ever made, but also the half life series is one of the greatest games ever made. It focuses on its huge epic story more then just randome gun fights. It stays high on a level of game play that is rarely ever seen in games. And uses a completely unique and beautiful way to tell and ufold its own story.

Look at any critics list of best games of all time. And not to far below Mario (NES), Tetras and Civilizations will you find Half-Life

I saw them a long, long time ago, back when they weren't nearly this good.

I'm intrigued. It'll probably be the next game I get then, when I feel can afford another one.

Same here. I actually hung out with John and the other 2 guys that were in the original band all afternoon. This was back when they only had the one album and he had long hair.
