if you had a Portal Gun, what would you do?

[Kra7en]

Because I'm a hopeless romantic and a retard... I'd use it to teleport to my girlfriends house or vice versa... xD

 

[TyranidXX]

Rob a bank or two.

I'd also find someone else to pull it apart, document it then rebuild it... I don't trust myself. After a while though, I'd get bored and probably end the world when I decide to do something stupid like trying to get one portal in the sun and another on the earth.

 

[silasbufu]

I would have helped England score more goals. I can't see any other way the could've won anything.

 

[Buleet]

make a perpetual mobile and give power to everyone and then become the richest man in the world.

 

[Ashsaver]

Portal gun can also picks things up right?

I could use it to clean the place up, moving garbage,rearrange furniture etc.

 

[tkioz]

I've day dreamed about this at work while avoiding doing any actual work, unlike some I come up with very detailed plans while day dreaming.

Step 1) Get on a train, go to another major city at least half a days travel away, set up a portal in advance, go home.

Step 2) Go somewhere really public, police function would work, chat with the cops, make sure my photo is taken then head off home.

Step 3) use my portal to go back to the major city, rob a bank using portal gun.

Step 4) Steel a car and drive home, making sure no one sees me, use portal gun to accomplish this.

Step 5) Point out to anyone who asks I couldn't have robbed the bank because I was with the cops at the time, there are photos!

Step 6) Hire a hitman to "deal" with my (old) boss... that's kind of where my fantasy fall apart.

I'd put one end in the pantry, and one in the wall right next to me. Why should I get up and walk a few feet to get snacks and drinks when I can be even lazier...

Genius!!

 

[SalamanderJoe]

Make. Portals? I'm not sure actually. Knowing my luck all the banks and Gamestation store rooms have them portal proof walls just to make sure that this never happened.

 

[LeonLethality]

Trade it in for a R.Y.N.O. a gun truly worth having.

 

[Mordreich]

And if you shoot it through space, It would eventually land on something.

That's all fine and good if it lands on a mass with air. If it doesn't however, you might go and create an infinite vacuum right next to you.

 

[CounterAttack]

Fire a portal through ANOTHER portal.

You can't

Hypothetically, objects such as Chell, cubes, radios and rockets can move through linked portals maintaining their momentum and angle. Why, therefore, can you not fire a portal ray through linked portals?

Say, for example, you have a blue portal at your level, and a linked orange one five metres above you. Opposite the orange portal is a flat surface you can place a portal on. According to a theory I know, in real life, you should be able to shoot a ray of either colour through the link, and create a portal on the surface opposite the orange portal.

The game treats portals as if they are a part of the wall, and a portal, linked or not, is treated as being unlinked when rays hit it. So when you attempt to do this in-game, the ray either fails or creates a new portal, depending on colour. In real life, however, I believe that either ray would pass through linked portals the same way anything else does.

OT: Say goodbye to public transport. I'd pop one on a wall of my local mall, and another at my university. Since I live five minutes away from the mall, I'd never be late for a lecture again.

 

[CheeseSandwichCake]

I'd bring Sajuuk to bear on a blue portal, with the orange portal staring at the white house.

 

[MajoraPersona]

I'd put one inside a furnace, and shoot the other under people.

Said furnace will be specially designed, and turned off while the portal is placed.

And everyone will go fwoosh.

 

[GLo Jones]

I would just shoot off randomly into space, And then shoot another into the ground, grab an oxygen mask, and then stick my head through.

What would YOU do?

Rules:

1: No saying "I would rape myself in the ass" Because I know that EVERYBODY had thought of that before.

And that's all of the rules!

If the portal hit an asteroid, or anything with less atmospheric pressure than earth, wouldn't you be sucked out into space by the lack of pressure there? You'd then die an excruciating death, and devastate the earth's atmosphere.

Same kinda thing if you happened to hit something with a lot more pressure, only you be blown away from the portal with enough force to probably kill you.

 

[jeejvebe]

I'd like to see what happens if you shoot a person with portal.

..for science of course, not for sadistic pleasure.

 

[Lem0nade Inlay]

I'd like to see what happens if you shoot a person with portal.

..for science of course, not for sadistic pleasure.

Because you do what you must, because you can!

OP: Maybe like others have said, say goodbye to public transport. Or just make conveniences around the house etc.
The possibilities are endless! (heh, geddit, terminal velocity and stuff...it's endless....)
