In base four, I'M FINE

Here's a terrible idea: listening to GLaDOS's dialogue on repeat, in an effort to understand crazy AIs. I'm not sure if there's a better way to get into RepliCarter's head, other than smashing my head against a wall.

That's true. I've always kind of seen RepliCarter as Sam without the breaks put on. Which is a rather scary interpretation of both of them. You're right in that RepliCarter doesn't need anyone's permission; she has no boundaries that she can see.

GLaDOS is one of the characters from the video game Portal. She/it is a sentient AI that runs the "test chambers" in this experimental lab. As the game progresses, it becomes more and more obvious that GLaDOS is completely insane and a murderous psychopath. Both the title of the entry and the thing about android hell are quotes from the game.
