This Just In! 'Portal's cake joke is old.'
DryvBy \| 5:29 PM on 01.23.2008	61 comments

I laughed out loud reading the comments from a fellow gamer in PC Gamer for Feb 2008. It went something like "Nerds ruin everything." and it's true. Portal is a good game but it's way overdone now. I guess when you have nothing to do all day aside from make stupid 8-bit art and cubes from games and talk about how ROFL cake is, it just ruins the effect.

I've become sick of the whole game because of the internet community, especially this site. I'm tired of seeing pathetic news stories about some loser who created a cube with a heart on it, and the title has "x x x Cake x x Portal x x x LOL" in it. It's stupid. It was funny that one time. It wasn't the best joke ever. The only reason people keep going on about it is because there's really nothing out there. The guy also pointed out that what someone needs to do to stop the nerdism of cake is to create something more stupid and funny. Again, I agree. It's the same joke over and over.

Get over it! Cake isn't that funny and after a few months, the whole Portal thing should have been done with. It's like somewhere in the game, Hypnotoad blasted cake everywhere and said "LOL at this" and the nerds followed. When is this love for 8-bit art and cubes and cake going to end?!

This is true about all internet memes and popular crap. As soon as it shows up on TV(G4)/Clothing/consumer products, it's long gone and dead.

Colette Bennett

Welcome to the internet. I don't think you're going to like it here.

Y0j1mb0

@Collette:

lol.

DryvBy

@Colette

I love the internet, but I don't like the people. They're, in so many words, stupid. And pretty gay.

Clockwork

You don't like the people? You better get used to them because they're sure as fuck not going anywhere.

F Whipple

The cake is a lie...by the way

MrSadistic

The internet is just one trendy/ironic meme after another. I just hope in another 4 or 5 years I don't see people wear ironic Nintendo related clothing, ugh.

EternalDeathSlayer

and what may I ask is wrong with being gay? What if Collette was gay? Would you put her down for it?

lol.

I suppose this means that you are in fact gay yourself, as you're currently at this very moment one of the "people" on the internet. I suppose this makes you gay.

It's ok.

enfaw

wow.. I think I saw this same post before

its all fun and games until someone says the games were never fun at all

liam2015

This was a triumph
I'm making a note here: huge success
It's hard to overstate my satisfaction

Also whiteboy has perfect reasoning. lol

EternalDeathSlayer

Liam has provided me with praise and inspiration, so therfore I must also say this: Besides calling yourself gay, you also just told us that we're all stupid, and that includes you. You've just disrespected the internets greatest hardcore gaming community in one sentence, and you also called yourself stupid and gay.

Trust me, we're not all stupid and gay, just you.

The cake is a lie indeed.

MrSadistic

I may be stupid and I might be gay but I'm not a Communist. Wait, um.

DryvBy

@EternalDeathSlayer Ranked Whiteboy

Oh man. Insulted by a internet kid. Hang on. I got something for ya...

There ya go. It's sweet isn't it.

Name calling is kinda like running in the special olympics too, isn't it.

There's just something about being a fag that I don't understand. I guess because I like the natural way much better.

DryvBy

Actual photo of that Whiteguy. Whoa... not a loser, eh?

EternalDeathSlayer

Wow, the sexism is running rampant in here bud. I just enjoyed making a fool out of you. As for being a child, well...check my profile. I'm no child and I'm not a bigot of any kind either.

And that picture you're using to disrespect me is quite old. Not to mention that insults on the internet don't bother me. It's just the internet, after all.

You fail at life and gaming blogs.

DryvBy

Even better...

EternalDeathSlayer

ZOMG, you've posted the pic from my profile that everyone has already seen!!!!!

A winner is you!

My mickey mouse mousketeer ears are fucking win and you know it. The truth is that all this anti gay stuff is really just a cover for your rampant homosexuality. You know you're dreaming of me and my mouse ears bitch.

EternalDeathSlayer

I have to leave this blog now, I'm at work and have much better things to do then defend myself from one of those "internet stupid gay people" as you like to call them.

DryvBy

Lol, ok. I'm gay. :D

You can't argue with someone who agrees. AL3RT TEH INTERWEBS! DryvBy is a butt pirate! But at least I'm not old... (with ugly kids).

Dagerr

Oh wow, someone ELSE needs a hug today. I thought we could only have one attention whore a day on these blogs?

First one prolly didn't count.

EternalDeathSlayer

I'm 21. retard.

lucashoal

Settle down kids or I'll pull this blog over.

Anyways, you weren't talking about Yahtzee's back page article by chance, were you? Cuz I read the same thing, tho I don't remember when issue I read it in.

GoldBond

The cake meme is around because not everyone played Portal back in October. I just beat it last week and happen to find the cake thing funny. Sorry.

Speaking of, didn't one of the Dtoid podcasts have someone admit that they thought that the "all your base" shit was still funny?

McSnow

EternalDeathSlayer

Some things never grow old.

This guy doesn't understand that.

Besides all of this, you really should consider an anti-depressant or a mood stabilizer. Whining like an emo bitch about something unimportant and obviously loved by the rest of the internet is kind of stupid. It's you against the internet. Nobody wins or loses though, because it's just the internet. And nobody cares what you have to say.

DryvBy

Dude, whatever. You just said you were going away (obviously a liar). You're not 21. You're at least a 35ish old child porn lover. Go away.

DryvBy

@lucashoal

Hey, yeah that's the one. It was from the latest one, the one with the How To Build a Gaming Rig issue this year. Amazing article, though I miss the old guy.

EternalDeathSlayer

I cannot leave now that you have called me a liar! I was lying about leaving to be sure, but now you are calling my age into question??? No sir, I am not 35. I am 21.

Wow. But if you want me to be 35 for your fantasies, I will happily oblige.

MrSadistic

Let's do some math, shall we?

What's a lie?
1. A false statement deliberately presented as being true; a falsehood.
2. Something meant to deceive or give a wrong impression.

What's a liar?
Someone who tells a lie.

What did you say earlier?
"I have to leave this blog now, I'm at work and have much better things to do then defend myself from one of those "internet stupid gay people" as you like to call them."

Where are you now?
Here.

Therefore, if You = Here and Your Words = "I have to leave..." then You = Liar.

Gotta go anyway, wife is here and we're going to rock out in Rock Band using tunes from Oasis. MrSadistic, can I have some popcorn? Me = hungry.

Clockwork

I never thought I'd say this, but I'm totally with whiteboy on this one. GTFO DryvBy, you Internet hating whorebag.

-Pulls up seat next to MrSadistic-

Can I has popcorn?

13thDragon

HEATH LEDGER DIED!!!

MrSadistic

I make some popcorn for myself for this highly amusing pseudo internet fight and you all want some. You sons of bitches.

Did that kid just have his nads removed?

DryvBy: Hey, please leave your homophobic statements out of what you say. Say what you want, but no racist and homophobic stuff is allowed here.

DryvBy

ROFL! That's awesome. Best picture I've seen all year. 5*!

Also, Clockwork, lol, I hate you too, slut cake.

Silverback 55

I'm going to say this nicely, go away DryvBy.

Sam Spectre

Agreed. The show must go on!

Eschatos

Cake is never overdone, mothafucka!

Takeshi

I'm not going to say this nicely, get the fuck out of my internet! And don't say things about Whiteboys pic or gays if you have this pic on your flickr.

And your cake was a lie:

This blog is a lie.

Def JM

Nice fan.

MissHinasaki

But! But! Teh cube is sooooo cute....

I've never seen male gamers grow so attached to an inanimate object before. It's adorable!

..............................................Cake is a lie!

Tragic Hero

And now my final thought. An opinion is a good thing to have, but is it a good thing to share? Apparently in the right hands it could provide insight but in the wrong hands it could cause trouble. So lets remember to ask ourselves "Will people like me if I say this?"

I'm Tragic Hero and be sure to beat your kids. Goodnight everyone.

MrSadistic

Wow, having a stationary fan in your picture.

Fucking hardcore.

PwnyBownz

I heard somewhere that trolls love cake. They also love to masturbate into a thermos while waiting for pie to cool, after which they RickRoll over all your base singing, "I can has chargin mah goofy time lazer!" Oh, and you are small, like a tiny human.
Then again, it is within everyone's power to either expand on a meme or make a new one. Don't like the macromayed-mario-cupcake-pacman hoodie-plushy-casemod-companion cube-nightlight (someone should do that), do something better or GTFO.
Epic commment is epic (see what I did there?) and also good advice.

PrinceofCannedPeaches

Is the Internet anything but people?

EternalDeathSlayer

Wow. See DryvBy, I told you that what you said was offensive. You shouldn't disrespect this community, let alone the entire internet. Well, maybe the rest, but not Dtoid. GTFO.

I wish I could have stuck around before when you got gangbanged by everyone. It's so unnatural isn't it?

You Fail.

EternalDeathSlayer

Oh and BTW, Hamza wins. He's a shark, Suck his Dick! lol

You win CTZ
