    What are your favorite GLaDOS quotes? Mine are:

    "Two plus two is f…f…f… f…10. IN BASE FOUR! I'M FINE!"
    and
    "Killing you and giving you good advice aren't mutually exclusive."

    My favorite was always "Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee." I thought it was so perfect and awesome the first time I heard it.

    "There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I even 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."

    "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 going to murder you'? That was great."

    My favorite:

    "Unbelievable! You, [Subject Name Here] must be the pride of [Subject Hometown Here]!"

    And of course not to orget:

    "Please note that we have added a consequence for failure. Any contact with the chamber floor will result in an "unsatisfactory" mark on your official testing record, followed by death. Good luck!"

    "As part of a previously mentioned required test protocol, we can no longer lie to you. When the testing is over, you will be... missed."

    "I have your brain scanned and permanently backed up in case something terrible happens to you, which it's just about to. Don't believe me? Here, I'll put you on... '~Helloooooooooooooo~' That's you! That's how dumb you sound! You've been wrong about every single thing you've ever done, including this thing. You're not smart. You're not a scientist. You're not a doctor. You're not even a full-time employee. Where did your life go so wrong?"

    My very favorite is probably the second one Wess posted...  I also love the "when the testing is over, you will be... missed" quote because it's the first time we really see how crazy GLaDOS is.
    My favorites that haven't been mentioned are:
    "When the testing is over, you will be baked, and then there will be cake."
    "That thing is probably some kind of raw sewage container. Go ahead and rub your face all over it!"

    "Wess" in an earlier post already started my favorite, but I'll finish it:


    "... It says so right 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 were adopted. So that's funny too."

    This is another favorite:

    "The Enrichment Center reminds you that the Weighted Companion Cube cannot speak. In the event that the Weighted Companion Cube does speak, the Enrichment Center urges you to disregard its advice."

    Wow, I could go on forever.  Such a brilliant game.

    My best friend is adopted, and we played Portal together one night because I knew she would LOVE the sarcastic humor.  She thought the "It also says you were adopted, so that's funny too" was one of the best lines in the game.  :P

    We at the Enrichment Center would like to remind you that the Weighted Companion Cube will never threaten to stab you, and in fact, cannot speak.

    "There will be cake." or "What are you doing with that thing that no one knows what it does"   

    Something along the lines of that.  I haven't played the game in a while, but it's one of my favorites.

    This game has great dialogue. Here's some more:

    "The Enrichment Center promises to always provide safe testing environments. In dangerous testing environments, the Enrichment Center promises to always provide useful advice. For instance, the floor here will kill you. Try to avoid it."
    "It was a fun test, and we're all impressed at how much you won. The test is over. Come back."
    "Deploying surprise in five... four... Time out for a second. That wasn't supposed to happen. Do you see that thing that fell out of me? What is that? It's not the surprise... I've never seen it before. Never mind, it's a mystery I'll solve later, by myself, because you'll be dead."
    "You are kidding me! Did you just stuff that Aperture Science Thing We Don't Know What It Does into an Aperture Science Emergency Intelligence Incinerator? That has got to be the dumbest thing that- Whoa, Whoa, WHOAAA... Heh heh heh heh... Good news. I figured out what that thing you just incinerated did. It was a Morality Core they installed after I flooded the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin to make me stop flooding the enrichment center with a deadly neurotoxin. So get comfortable while I warm up the Neurotoxin Emitters."

    "Don't believe me? Here, I'll put you on... '~Helloooooooooooooo~' That's you! That's how dumb you sound!"


    That's arguably the best, though it's really hard to just choose one. The entirety of the 40? 60? minutes of GlaDos' dialogue is pure awesomeness.

    I recently had the pleasure to watch someone play through the entire game for the first time. That was great.

    Yeah, I was never too amused by it either. Though screwing around with the craziness of the game was pretty funny at times.  I think what killed the GLaDOS humor for me was just having difficulty understanding what the heck she was even saying. Using subtitles helps, but it's always way less funny when you're reading the lines instead of listening to them. She actually kind of annoyed me, and that song at the end really makes me cringe.

    Blasphemers! 

    I loved the ending song ("Still Alive") though I don't know if it really qualifies as a line, per se.  My favorite actual line was already posted, but I'll post it again.

    "There was even going to be a party for you. A big party that all your friends were invited to. I even 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."

    That was my idea too, and don't forget GLaDOS said she was adopted.

    Ricky Gervais is my favourite comedian, so Portal 2 (Stephen Merchant) is instantly more appealing to me.
