Today I finished my third year of college! During the year, I came up with various ideas for decorating my dorm’s floor that were never completed for a variety of reasons, such as this one, which came very close to fruition. (It turns out that Adobe Reader lacks the ability to span a single large document across multiple pages, thus rendering printing a large sign somewhat difficult.)
Anyway, in the game Portal, the player must navigate a series of progressively more difficult “test chambers,” each of which prominently feature a sign corresponding to that chamber. The sign includes the test chamber’s number, illustrations of what the test might entail, and the like.
After playing the game, I decided to make a similar sign corresponding to my building (West 13), with modified versions of the Portal illustrations showing some of the strange things my floormates had a tendency to do, such as trying to wash ice cream cones down the drain, slamming the door loudly, and jumping down the stairs!
So without further adieu, I present you with Testchamber 13 West, the unprintably large sign!
In retrospect, I probably shouldn’t have let Robert Frost navigate.
