Portal 2 Easter Egg- Room 8/22 - "Methodically knocking people's hats off"

Portal 2 easter egg from room 8/22
GLaDOS slow motion gibberish

Taken from the quote
""Whenever I find myself growing grim about the mouth; whenever it is a damp, drizzly November in my soul; whenever I find myself involuntarily pausing before coffin warehouses, and bringing up the rear of every funeral I meet; and especially whenever my hypos get such an upper hand of me, that it requires a strong moral principle to prevent me from deliberately stepping into the street, and methodically knocking people's hats off--then, I account it high time to get to sea as soon as I can."

From Moby Dick

In context (Nilesy has told me) matey was getting real crazy being around loads of humans, he was saying that he had to get out to the sea soon before he goes nuts and starts knocking peoples hats off.

So when glados says she is AFK I think shes saying shes pissed off with being around humans so much and needs an escape.

anyway hope that helps a little bit, maybe connected with the borealis for half life 3

I know .. i used Free recording software pro edit studio to slow down the sound from game .. and i heard only the last part right :P ... get to sea as soon as i can ... everything else .. i didn't understand it xDD

[hybridpanda]

@WaterCursed i could make out the first bit, but not the end. but a quick google search of "methodically knocking peoples hats off" came up with the full quote on a TON of sites. I was like wtf is this a meme or something?

then saw its a quote :P

[ZSpwnage]

who found this eater egg first? cause a vid on machinima just went up of some dude showing this, and lots of people have disliked it lol

[hybridpanda]

@ZSpwnage yeah i just saw markkoh posted it. seems a few people have found it, not sure who was first. was watching my video of this part back and i thought, hell, i can slow that down in vegas easy. then i was like. might aswell upload this :)

Lord knows who can be credited with the original find however i found this one on my own =]

[Derek105Huey]

i don't get why people are saying "who found this easter egg first" didn't everyone who play this game, at this moment want to slow it down and see what she actually says?! I know I did, I put a recorder up and recorded it, and found out what she says, only difference is I didn't record it.

[InfernalAdventure]

Because it's from Moby Dick.

[IndiRBX]
