Nothing compares to OTIS the Keyes elevator, I lived there last year and will do so this year (holla if you are to!!). OTIS is by far one of the slowest, if not the slowest elevator I have been in on campus. Living on the 6th floor last year it took a solid 2mins to go up 6 floors, but Keyes is pretty sweet  .

The slowest elevator on campus is definitely the DeGroote School of Business elevator. It takes - and I'm not exagerrating here - 12 seconds to go up or down one floor.

lol I will play that game someday, but I think I should stay away from it.

But sadly I am much much better at Qualitative stuff(Philosophy and analytics) and writing then all of the above :(
Hence Portal is a BAD BAD idea for me

Haha, Mensa Child Prodigy lol.
Portal isn't too bad for an addictive personality.....well the main game isn't anyways, it's only about two hours long. The extra puzzles though will probably make you go insane. There are some insanely difficult challenges.

Yeah, it was amazing value. I got like 6 games for $9.99. I even still play Team Fortress 2 daily, so it was definitely a sweet buy.
