Woke up at 5:25 today, went to breakfast with a good friend that came over last night and we shot the shit over a hot cup of coffee before the sun even came out.

Have to say, that’s a great way to start your day. I feel fully charged and ready to go.

I feel like today, today I can take on the world.

I watched this for probably 20 minutes yesterday. Hilarious shit by Picnicface - and you can find the original here.

Powerthirst! IT’S LIKE CRYSTAL METH IN A CAN.
POWERTHIRST IS CRYSTAL METH IN A CAN.

POWERTHIRST IS CRYSTAL METH!

Lmfao ftw.

Also: HUMP - CATTING (SIMILAR TO BEAR-BLASTING!)

Wow. There’s really no other way to describe it.

At first you think - ok this is going to be just another puzzle game. But by the third level, you’re like - wait, so if I put an entrance portal here, and then an exit portal there, I can.. whooooooaaaaaa!!!!

I was really only able to play it for about an hour before work this morning (stupid staff meetings), but am absolutely excited to get home and jump through some more glowing rings.

And I have to say my favorite technique is the fall-fly technique. The way it works is you place a portal on the ground - a portal on a vertical surface (usually close to the ceiling in order to get more distance) and then walk into (or preferably jump from a high distance) into the ground portal. What happens is your momentum is conserved and you end up catapulting through the portal near the ceiling.

“So what?” says you. Well - I say, after you come out of the high portal, throw down a new entrance portal wherever you’re going to be landing. Yea - think about that one for a minute. Your momentum is now what it was from the fall (let’s say x) plus your acceleration from gravity (where g=9.8 m/s/) into the new portal - etc, etc.

Wow, that just got super complicated. I started having flashbacks to college physics.

Have you experienced Portal?
