What happens when somebody plays the Valve game "Portal" for too long. The victim begins subconsciously imagining different aspects of the game in real life. For example, somebody with Portal Syndrome may mistake a large storage box for the Weighted Companion Cube, as as such, may begin screaming any number of things ranging from "You're alive!" to "I'm sorry I threw you into the fire!" As another example, somebody may begin thinking that they are trapped in the Aperture Science Computer Aided Enrichment Center.
Fred: Why is Lee hugging that box?
George: He has Portal Syndrome. He played Portal for seven hours straight last night.

Get the Portal Radio Loop 10 Hours mug.n.
Often abbreviated as PoE or POE.
A website begun in 1999 to catalogue and discuss other bizarre, odd and, yes, evil websites. Its directory is an obvious parody of those found atYahoo! and Google, with categories such as People:Insane and Artists:Filk. The Portal's forums are extremely active and only lightly moderated. Flames and hyperbole are extremely common, but more intelligent discussion of featured sites and site owners can also be found without much effort. While there is a strongly worded Look And Don't Touch policy regarding featured sites and site owners (unless they choose to visit the forums), it is often broken as the only punishment is an IP banning of the offender from the forums. Websites with similar purposes are crank.net and LJDrama.org.

Get the Portal of Evil mug.Portal of Evil is a website in which certain other websites are displayed, for the purpose of discussion and mockery. The websites that qualify for display on Portal of Evil are generally either disgustingly perverted, completely insane, or an amalgom of the two. A satellite forum is provided on the Portal of Evil main page in which discussion of the website takes place. Some of the popularity of PoE comes from the fact that, in consensus, the websites it displays are, well, "evil". Another issue that appeals to the general public is the (usual) lightheartedness with which the websites are mocked. While it is believed by a few that the effects of the Portal linking to a website are detrimental to that website's health, in fact that website should thank the Portal for increasing traffic. One of the most highly-regarded rules of PoE membership is the "Prime Directive", which states that no member of PoE may contact a displayed site's owner unless said contact takes place on PoE's own turf. That said, any activity other than pure traffic that occurs within a displayed site is merely a by-product of being linked on PoE, and not a direct responsibility of PoE or any of its members. Also, the belief that the powers that be at the Portal of Evil are trying to shut down the websites it displays is an obvious falsehood, considering that shutting down websites on which it is trying to stimulate discussion would prove fruitless. All-in-all, PoE is a very entertaining website which can be enjoyed by anyone with a sense of humor.
The furries and otherkin have been trying to give the Portal of Evil a bad name for a long time, but it's all a bunch of hot air.

Get the portal of evil mug.When a person loves Valve's two games Portal and Portal 2 so much that they can't stop playing it, thinking about it, or searching for more Portal-related content. One suffering from portal addiction can either be addicted to the gameplay itself, or even the storyline and characters. Sometimes, said persons will turn to fan fiction, unofficial mods, or portal-related websites for continuation of the Portal series storyline.
All Jimmy does is play Portal 2 and read fanfic about Aperture Science; I think he's suffering from Portal addiction.
