Now, put your differences behind you. For science. Here are some of GLaDOS’s best moments in no particular order.
She may or may not be judging you.
1. “Killing you and giving you advice aren’t mutually exclusive. The rocket really is the way to go.”
2. “Remember when the platform was sliding into the fire pit and I said, ‘Goodbye,’ and you were like, ‘No way,’ and then I was all, ‘We pretended we were trying to murder you’? That was great.”
3. “Because despite your violent behavior, the only thing you’ve managed to break so far is my heart.”
4. “I could take a bath in the stuff, put it on cereal, rub it right into my eyes. Honestly, it’s not deadly at all. To me.”
5. “I was able – Well, forced really – to relive you killing me. Again and again. Forever. You know, if you’d done that to somebody else, they might devote their existence to exacting revenge.”
6. “Uh oh. You’re stranded. Let’s see if the cube will try to help you escape. Actually, so that we’re not here all day, I’ll just cut to the chase: It won’t. Any feelings you think it has for you are simply byproducts of your sad, empty life.”
7. “That jumpsuit you’re wearing looks stupid. That’s not me talking, it’s right here on your file. On other people it looks fine, but right here a scientist has noted that on you it looks ‘stupid.’ Well, what does a neck-bearded old engineer know about fashion? He probably- Oh, wait. It’s a she. Still, what does she know? Oh wait, it says she has a medical degree. In fashion! From France!”
8. “How are you holding up? BECAUSE I’M A POTATO. [clap clap clap] Oh good. My slow clap processor made it into this thing. So we have that.”
9. “No tricks. This potato only generates 1.1 volts of electricity. I literally do not have the energy to lie to you.”
10. “DANCING IS NOT SCIENCE!”
