This morning while doing some research on the history of al qaeda as well as honor killings in the middle east I immediately thought of this thread and decided that every islamic cleric that has sent impressionable young arabs to a suicide bomb death, every male relative that has killed a woman for his "honor", every man that murdered a woman for wanting to be educated, every one of these monsters I would drop a portal beneath that opened up over the pacific ocean right where the USS Indianapolis went down and then drop a few hundred butchered pigs in with them. Imagine that kind of horror.

In other words rid this world of the worst evil it has ever seen.

Ok lets say this portal gun can shoot portals anywhere:Moving surfaces,rough surfaces,etc.
It emits no little particals.
(only through the Blue portal can you see anything,on the other side no one can see it)
Alright, what then?
Well this will help all portal prankers.Well I would use this to get rid of PETA.

It would also be great during the winter - have one portal somewhere hot, like in a desert, and the other in your cupboard. When you're feeling chilly, just open the cupboard.

Great idea, only I'd do the reverse, only I wouldn't have it in a cupboard, I'd have it in the ceiling in my living room (portal in the distant cold + portal in my ceiling = happy me).

Aha- I have you, sir! This particular topic's been done in at least one other site (Gamespot, maybe?), but never at The Escapist- the forum search was my friend when I created this topic, so.... Ha!

Never, EVER, tell someone you know better than them when they participated in the thread they are talking about and you clearly did NOT do your homework.
I missed that, eh? I searched for "portal" "portal gun" "real-life portal gun"...Nothing on the search. The only posts that came up with the phrase "portal gun" in them weren't even from that thread, even though tons of posts in that thread had those exact words in them.....
I've decided that I don't like the forum search engine, especially if it's going to not give me all the information for which I ask (I searched 3x, just to make sure)- I even tried searching for "now YOU'RE thinking with portals." phrase- nothing came up.

I apologize; I did my very best to make sure this wasn't done before, LordOmnit....There is absolutely no need to be snide and demeaning.

On a lighter note, I've decided that I wonder exactly how fast a "portal beam" goes- it's much slower than light, so it could be a problem, trying to open portal into a distant galaxy.

I'd finally be able to plug in an appliance that lacks the extra ft of cord needed...
Wow- I never would've thought of that...

You know, if they didn't have that silly International Date Line, you could use portals for time travel......

I think you still could :D Have someone set a portal down in Japan, and you do so another in America, and voila~!, instant time travel into the future! The only real question would be distance... and the question of whether one portal gun's portal would work with another's... hmm...

Work with nasa to create a poratl slingshot to get point B of a portal system to hit an incredibly far off potential habitable planet. For security reasons, point A portal would be set in a vacuum sealed radiation insulated room through which we could send initial exploration parties.

I would instantly become the savior of mankind, and the greatest contribution to society since the sun.

After I'd done my service to my world, I'd spend the rest of my days traveling to exotic places instantly.

What more could you want in life?

I honestly would just make my life more convenient. Take the bus one way and that manner of behaviour. I'd think about crime though.

Maybe get up the courage to rearrange someone's house and never have to break in.
