GlaDos is totally a guy.

Why else would he be such a dick?



But more seriously, why does everyone call GlaDos female? Its voice is female, but it's still just a machine and robots are genderless. You could program a machine to sound like a dog, but that doesn't make it a dog.

She could replace that goddamn paper-clip that served no other purpose than to piss people off in various windows products, since they've got rid of that now. Word just doesn't feel complete without an artificial character trying its hardest to send you into a homicidal rage, and I think GLADOS would be more than suited to the task.

She'd go on tour with Jonathan Coulton of course. Getting her set up on stage might be a bit tricky though.

Because calling it "it" is awkward.
Also portal 2 story.

She would be a snarky videogame reviewer right here on the Escapist. Wait, we already have one? Then have her join him as an assistant.

probably some space agency overlooking cryogenicly suspended scientists on a mission to Jupiter.

Can anyone say 'Telemarketing'?

You wouldn't complain when she puts you on hold, I can tell you that for certain!
