The Cake is a lie.

[Nick Griffin <3]

Roughly translates to "your promised reward is merely a fictitious motivator". Popularized by the game "Portal" (found on Half-Life 2's "Orange Box" game release for PC, X-Box 360, and PS3). During the game, an electronic voice encourages you to solve intricate puzzles using cake as a motivating perk. When you have "broken out" of the game's initial testing phase (from threat of death), you find scrawls on walls of the innards of the testing center warning you that "the cake is a lie".

Just played through Portal 1 again. The cake is not a lie though cause you totally go through a maze and get cake. The credits were awesome though. "This cake is soft and moist and delicious" haha.

Cakes belong inside of Portals. That Portal should have robots too.
