Unfortunately, all of these science jokes are lost on poor, stupid, naïve, stupid little Boxborg, bless his heart. But he gets the gist of it and picks up the kitty. Aww, so kyute, wookit da widdle kitty, dawww⦠Okay, letâs toss him into the orange hole and see what happens. Thereâs a funny noise and you can see the kitty over there! Cool stuff!
That done, you toddle off in a random direction.
MEANWHILE, IN THE APERTURE SCIENCE ENRICHMENT CENTER:
âHello, Test Subject. Welcome to the Aperture Science Enrichment Center. I hope youâre ready for testing because⦠wait. You are not an Aperture Science Enrichment Center Approved Testing Subject. Identify yourself.â
âTwo men walk into a bar. The first one orders some H2O. The second man says, âThat sounds good, Iâll have some H2O too!â The second man dies.â
âOh. You can talk. I didnât actually expect that. And youâre pretty funny. So I suppose I wonât release the deadly neurotoxin just yet.â
âSuperconductor walks into a bar. Barman tells him to get out. Superconductor doesnât resist.â
âAhahahaha. OK. I like you. Would you like to help me do some science?â
UNMEANWHILE, WHEREVER THE HELL BOXBORG IS:
You kinda wish youâd brought that weird kitty along. This place is super lonely. Wait! Whoâs that, over there? You draw closer. Heâs a fairly tall guy, with brownish hair and a beard. Heâs wearing a kind of cowboyish get-up? With like, the cowboy hat and stuff. Except heâs not wearing a shirt. Dudeâs kinda buff. He squints at you as you approach. As you get closer, he slips into a battle stance!
You are now fighting a wild Chuck Norris!
Because of the memetic properties of Interwebs, Chuck Norrises are improbably powerfully and unusually omnicidal. Fortunately, Boxborg doesnât really know what a Chuck Norris is, robbing the meme of most of its power!
The Chuck Norris quips, âWhen the bogeyman goes to bed, he first checks his closet for me.â
Boxborg doesnât know what a bogeyman is! The quip has no effect!
What do?
