          The slow grooming of the Player teaching them about the moon powder followed by the game ending where you shoot the moon is a big fat core memory for me. I still get goosebumps. I'm not a hardcore gamer but it felt so awesome.

            Dude I'm stupid and didn't really pay attention to the moon dust stuff, but it's ok because that game is so good, they frame that scene so well and have the moon just visible over GladOS's shoulder (so to speak), I still realized exactly what I needed to do. Probably one of my favorite "ah-ha" moments in gaming.

      Red chicky has moondust all over her back, making it serve as a portal conductor.

    Despite her disgust, she is holding a mirror so he can check his own ass out. He likes what he sees.

    The original mene has got it all wrong. From mere appearance that guy could score higher than both of these, which explains his compulsory action.(At the time… Appearances change and socially acceptable behaviour has changed in the meantime). He's trying to break out of the chains.

    Unless he's working in some job that isn't "respectable". In that case GF is taking advantage of him until she gets bored. I know plenty of these relationships…

    Anyway. Everyone looks the same now, so being dumb and pretty isn't really appealling.

    There's so many layers to this meme. I wonder if historians or algorithms will investigate it in 100 years
