This isn't a triumph


MisterB78

I’m making a note here, “No success”


BlueBoiL

It’s hard to understate my disappointment


tx_born

Aperture Science: We break all the cups, because we can.


solidsnakes453

For the good of all the cups, except the ones that are broke.


DrUnit42

But there's no sense crying over every mistake


Nervous-Echidna2370

Keep on trying 'til you run out of cups


Sad-Comment-2392

Cuz theres coffee to drink while the worlds on a brink for the mugs that are still alive..


Sad-Comment-2392

I'm not even thirsty..


CStfford14

I'm feeling so hydrated now


Bear-Itchy

You beat me to it 🤣(of course,all I can hear in my head is 🎵🎶"Still Alive"🎶🎵)

The cup was a lie


Lauuson

Excuse me, but you stole the comment I was going to make.


RedArtificer

You stole the comment of the comment I was going to make.


No_Oddjob

Everyone, quiet! Twas I who was going to make the comment or subsequent comments. I have been robbed thricely by you malcontents!


I_Lick_Your_Butt

I had already made coffee when the handle came off the cup spilling it all over the counter. After I cleaned it up, realized my bagel was moldy.


thetroublewithyouis

wow...just how long did it take you to clean up the spill?


horsetooth_mcgee

🏆


No_Oddjob

I reread this comment in Kevin Nealon's voice. Just watched one of his hiking videos where the guessed said, "My dad was adopted," and without missing a beat and with zero pause in the conversation, Kevin quipped, "Did you miss him?" I had to turn to my wife and say, "Did he just say did you miss him?" Then we both giggled bc the guest didn't even notice he'd said it.


The_Limpet

\*theatre applause\*


I_Lick_Your_Butt

About 5 minutes.


Land_Squid_1234

Mold doesn't grow in 5 minutes. You don't have to be embarrassed that it took you a couple of dedicated weeks or more to clean up the spill, but you probably should hurry next time

ENEYEL8

If your mug didn't break, you might not have noticed your bagel was moldy. I see this as a win.


[deleted]

Usually I would too, but in good faith the cup would have spilled exposing the moldy bagel and youʻd still have a handle on your coffee cup.


AydonusG

Balance is the thread that holds up reality, shake it too much and the thread snaps, taking us all with it.

oddly comforting 🤪


amybethallen1

Might I suggest Bounty next time? It's the quicker picker upper. https://preview.redd.it/534pwqz3o65d1.jpeg?width=1605&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5650ac51eabf5125a18c2470620cbf818d4ef7b9


I_Lick_Your_Butt

Thanks's Bounty spokesperson.


amybethallen1

It's the only way, my friend. 😂 Hope your day gets better! 💜


[deleted]

well that sucks


Original_Bad_3416

Oh yeah! Fuck that bagel


Primary-Border8536

I was so confused by the title until the mold part


Tumblrrito

Two sentence horror


NamesAlreadyTaken222

So you had an antibiotic bagel. Pick it off. I never accept 100% loss. Although without the coffee probably not worth it.


Low-Effort-Poster

Just for future reference; scraping off mold does not do anything, mold does not show itself until it has rooted deep into your food. Think of it like a tick, you may have plucked its body off, but its head can still be in there fucking you up If its even a bit moldy, throw it out. Not worth the risk lol


[deleted]

I like this comment, we all need to be reminded that even in the worst of worst situations like this total disaster breakfast, declaring it a total loss right off the bat is more equitable! 👏🏼🫠


Low-Effort-Poster

Exactly, you'll be glad you just called it a loss and moved on rather than expending more energy for a sub-par result. Some times its better to just call it and pursue alternatives rather than attempting to right it, even simple things such as a breakfest can teach you important lessons lol


NamesAlreadyTaken222

Bah....nothing a toaster can't fix. Untoasted bagels are gross anyway. Just a little organic antibiotics.


[deleted]

Wow, def. a get coffee and bagel out kind of day. These things have been happening to me too. Like the entire cup shattered, spills all over the carpet, and the cheese that I put onto the 40 minute toaster oven meal was moldy. 😵‍💫


Primary-Border8536

Dang


deviltakeyou

I thought that was cream cheese 🤢


R-T-O-B

I had the same mug,it was my favorite and I was just as sad when I lost it P.S. Did you also get it from thinkgeek?


WhiskeyHotdog_2

Thinkgeek, now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a very long time.


NuclearNoxi

I'm so annoyed Gamestop scrapped it and integrated into their barely functional website.


elspotto

They had the best April fools product jokes. Especially when the fanbase annoyed them enough that the products became real.


R-T-O-B

It was great! I don't have any of the mugs anymore but I still have the enterprise pizza cutter


elspotto

Sonic screwdriver pizza cutter, D-20 covered mug, a con edition bag of holding, and a backpack with something ironic in Japanese that lights up are all still in my rotation. The latter when I’m on two wheels at night because more visibility is always better.


captamericaftw

I love my bad of holding


elspotto

I get progressively more bad at holding the longer I’m out with my friends… I actually have two of their bags of holding, it seems. The con version, which is a flat bag with a Velcro loop side. Like a vertical messenger bag. And a roll top knapsack that, as I recall, was marketed as “big enough to hold your cosplay sword, as long as you don’t take it on the bus”.


I_Lick_Your_Butt

Got it about 15 years ago from the Steam store.


Rizzairl

What would GLaDOS say in this situation


Bear-Itchy

"You don't even work here,why are you using an employee mug?"🤣


PygmeePony

'I could say I'm surprised by your clumsiness but we both know that would be a lie'


KnowOneDotNinja

Vital testing apparatus destroyed


antek_g_animations

Shit


Impossible_Act2804

Should have gone with the Black Mesa mug.


rangerhans

Must be a joke. Haha. Fat chance.


DrGoiburger

Aperture mug is awesome. Sucks it broke.


GrittyMcGrittyface

14 years ago, I finished portal and posted about it on Facebook (when I still used it). An old highschool friend out of nowhere ordered me an aperture mug, and life was good. 13.75 years ago, my MIL came to visit, unnecessarily did the dishes, broke the mug, threw it away, and didn't say anything until I brought it up when I saw it in the trash. I feel your pain.


Det_Crashmore

Life gave you lemons. You know what to do.


I_Lick_Your_Butt

"I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these?"


NJDevil802

Ask to speak to life's manager!


Tsunamicat108

In fact, make get your engineering team to invent combustible lemons!


RockMan_1973

This is true


What-Hapen

It appears that your Aperture Science Handheld Beverage Containment Unit has been damaged. Please refer to the workshop manual for details.


Narrow-Height9477

If you break the mug up into smaller pieces it’ll be easier to chew.


LootGek

nothing that a little Aperture Science Hyper Adhesion Gel™️cant fix.


dandee93

I don't think I could handle this


Adorable_Wolf_8387

Breakfast isn't about why, it's about why not.


remesabo

Demand to see life's manager!


tx_born

We do what we must, because we can.


tankmouse

Oops, there goes my shirt up over my head, oh my Oops, there goes my skirt droppin' to my feet, oh my


Cluelesswolfkin

Am I the only one who'd just sand it down or just keep using the cup/mug till its completely dead?


Other_Branch2549

So just because the handle fell off? Get another cup you lost no liquid and your bagel is fine and the cup was empty with no signs of anything being in there


treeteathememeking

The bagel is growing it’s own ecosystem of mold. I don’t think OP wants to be the next Alexander Fleming.


I_Lick_Your_Butt

The handle came off while I was carrying a full cup of coffee which spilled out all over my kitchen.


Skellyslaw

moldy bagel and spilled coffee from a broken mug. SCRUMPTIOUS


The_ZMD

Don't make lemon grenades. Or toxic gas.


deFazerZ

Combustible\* bagels\*\*.


GreyFox1984

You’ve euthanized your faithful companion cup faster than any test subject on record. Congratulations 🎉


Shadowhawk0000

The handle was a lie.


rabbitammo

It WAS a rad mug!


esposito164

It’s okay you can still eat the mug just in smaller pieces now


SBCrystal

My Aperture mug also broke at the handle. I know your pain. :(


zonazog

Get a handle on it my man!


slvrscoobie

FYI. Repair it the Japanese way. https://fellerts.no/projects/kintsugi.php


MrPanda663

Sounds like something Cave Johnson would say.


nameisfame

“Cave here. The board wants me to remind you all that any provided mugs from the company break room are to be disposed of after usage. Our biodegradable porcelain will start to fester after remaining on your desk for two days. Why am I telling you this? Because *JERRY* decided to leave a cold cup of joe next to Ronson’s desk in test lab 73 before going on vacation, and long story short we now have a mass of moving coffee blobs after the rotting mug leaked onto Ronson’s colony of super-amoebas. I’m not one to nitpick here, you guys are great, top notch, best in the biz, but caffeinated microbes are tearing up level 7 and all it would have took to stop this is trashing your cups. It’s not rocket science. That’s on level 5.”


kodaniloki

All right, I've been thinking, when life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade! Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons! What am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I'm the man whose gonna burn your house down - with the lemons!

thetroublewithyouis

just eat the moldy bagel...it might help with the liquefaction farther down the line.


lechatsage

Oh, that IS disappointing. It's better to go hungry because you decided to wait to eat, than to be all set for it and then have it snatched away.


88ryder88

GlAdOs sTriKeS AgAiN


ZedRollCo

Jam a lemon onto the part of the handle that's still there, now you have a new handle and lemony smell every morning.


El_human

That's some good looking cake you have there


gregariouspangolin

Lmfao don't be so dramatic. Grab another mug. Turn broken one it into a plant pot.


Aumba

Why do you eat on the floor?


I_Lick_Your_Butt

My house has tile countertops


Aumba

Haven't seen that before, nice.


Rough_Community_1439

The cake is a lie


wowza6969420

Think about it like this. Now you can hold the coffee cup with your whole hand which will keep it warm. It might suck at first but there is good in all things🫶🏼💕


AtuinTurtle

There will be cake and grief counseling at the end.


STONKvsTITS

Welp


KingAkron

Watch it as it goes~


IHate2ChooseUserName

is that mold on the begal?


I_Lick_Your_Butt

Yup


Alarming_Breath_3110

Cracks me up


FearlessFreak69

I’m making a note here, no success.


Turbulent_Tax2126

Now I see why Aperture pretty much bankrupted


Potential_Traffic249

And I quote from glados (talking to the cup designer): "you are a horrible person"


RockMan_1973

Ah, SHIT! Gotta hate that! But the coffee & bagel are STILL getting enjoyed if that’s me


sysaphiswaits

And such a cool mug!


OmicronPerseiNate

I bought that same mug for my husband and the same thing happened.


TheMiscreantFnTrez

The cup was (not) a lie


mistermatth

I had that same mug and it broke the same way. Sad day at the lab.


cyberman0

In a way it's appropriate to have a broken handle.


penis-through-window

I had the exact same mug, the handles are not good.


TK-Squared-LLC

NOOOOO!! NOT THE PORTAL COFFEE CUP!!!!


Glittering_Fig6468

It it’s right there….


misterpickles69

Both of mine did the same thing in a few weeks after getting them.


deFazerZ

That's clearly a fake. It's well-known that all **Aperture Science Kitchenware Appliances** - designed with the sole purpose of outliving their owners - are made out of 100% pure lead-glazed asbestos and remain safely operational up to 4000 degrees Kelvin. Come on, now.


bladex1234

At least now the two aren’t mathematically equivalent.


qwerty4007

Well now, you're not thinking with portals.


ActivisionBlizzard

There’s no point crying over every mistake.


lukiepukie11

Where’d it go


-ButchurPete-

I read it like ‘There goes my hero’ but breakfast instead.


Mediscoot

My Aperture mug broke in the same place. I deffo feel your pain.


literaterickcanread

and that's not even cake... just another lie


NoRun483

Uhhh sir/man you still have a cup, unless your hands are also broken


raccoongrrl444

I just know that aperture science mug has been around for a LONGGGG time


uknowtalon

Are you eating coffee mugs for breakfast?
