I am in possession of the single greatest video game anecdote of all time which is the following

i recommended portal to a friend and she started it and was having a lovely time. one day i messaged her to check in and jokingly said "how is GLaDOS treating you" and she said "Who?" and I said "GLaDOS, the AI lady who is talking to you" and my friend said "I've... been playing the game on mute."

PORTAL. on MUTE. incredible. that's the human condition or something
