NOTA BENE: YOU ARE A REAL PERSON. YOU DO NOT HAVE THE LEG SPRINGY THINGS. YOU CANNOT FALL 500 FEET AND SURVIVE LIKE CHELL CAN. IF YOU PUT A PORTAL ON THE CEILING AND ONE ON THE WALL THEN WALK THROUGH THE LATTER, YOU WILL FALL ON YOUR FACE.
Now please continue to amuse me =]
I personally would use it to commit great acts of comical hijinx.

Mundane Utility FTW. I'd use a portal gun to make me able to go to work in a heartbeat. Of course, I'd try and make it somewhat subtle. That, or make a fortune from shipping.

Physics Question! How long will it take for the bullet to fall to the ground?

In this order:

1) I would teleport in front of people for money 'The Prestige' style.
2) Take the money I earn and make a research company.
3) Tell the company to reverse engineer the gun.
4) Copyright the technology.
5) Make the technology available to the world at a hefty price.
6) Rule the world and be credited for space travel.

It's been a while since I've done Physics but:

v = u + at ?

Let's say that I left something at home and am on a flight. no problem! I left a portal open at home, so I simply step into the loo, open a portal to home and-FUCKS SAKE I TELEPORTED INTO THE TERMINAL.

Meh. I'll just shoot it into the atmosphere and see what the first thing it lands on is, if anything.

This. A least for a while.
That for an hour.
Then:
1) I'd use the portal gun, to get on top every big old inaccessible mountain top(to see the view)
2) I'd go to the tallest building on the planet, put a portal on it's side, jump to my seemingly impending doom, put a portal right where I land, then repeat this process till I get a considerable speed. Then I'd put a portal(while falling) in the grown, so when I go through the one I'm falling towards, I'd get thrown back form ground floor, back on the last floor.
3) Sky dived and before hitting the ground putting a portal there, and one back on the air-plane.

I'd probably get myself killed doing some of these crazy stuff, but science and fun, deserve the risk!

For all those saying you'd put one at work/town centre/school and one at home, have you forgotten that everyone would have instant access to your house this way?
I imagine robbing your house would be incredibly easy.

Anyway. I'd probably just put one on each side of my room so I could go for long walks without leaving the house. I'd also put my dog in front of one because it's hilarious when he sees his own reflection.

I would probably just use it to get to work instantaneously. Not very creative, I know, but I get up waaay too early as is!

I'd go outside and fire one straight up towards the sky, then fire the second one on the wall beside me and stick my head through and see where the first one ended up.

Lick my elbow. Then, put one in the toilet, and the other in the houses of parliament. That will provide valid discussion for the budget.

Why hasn't anyone considerred using it to get heavy goods into space? The cost of sending materials/people will range from $4,300-40,000 per kilo, and with most of the crafts mass being used for fuel you don't get to take much (or infact may have to develop lighter materials, again at a high cost) for what you pay.
With this you could have a portal in space on some sort of platform (which unfortunately would need several launches to actually build, but this would make it worthwhile in the longrun). From there you simply transport goods through a portal on the ground into space. If the platform is large enough, you can possibly construct other space craft for further missions in orbit, minimising the costs of fuel. The only constraint is the size of the portal (and shape) would limit the size of goods sent through (at least in one piece).

No idea what the varying forces of gravity will result in.

I'd just make two portals next to each other, and impress people enough to have a go at running through. And then at the last second remove the entrance. Silly people..

I would somehow aquire a money costume, and dance into a bank, at which point they would deliver me to the vault. Once inside the vault, I shoot a portal, having previously placed another at home, and take all the money for myself, leaving only my cunning disguise to taunt my would-be captors.

It's brilliant, and you can't stop me!
