There's no stopping us now, minion! Together, we shall free Pandora! I Will lead you into battle! I will destroy Handsome Jack with my bare hands! I will.... STAIRS?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
My brother's name is Steve. For a while I set his text notification in my phone to Steve in Borderlands going "heyo!" And when he would call, it would be him saying "heyo! Heyo!" Until you get Claptrap saying "Shut the FUCK up Steve" from Poker Night 2.
One of my favorite games of all time, and imo one of the few games where all the dlc is worth it. Would highly recommend the Handsome Collection to anyone interested in it.
I loved Borderlands. Played it completely through at least a dozen times. I played Borderlands 2 for about 40 minutes before I was just like, “nah” and turned it off. It was years ago, so I couldn’t even tell you why I wasn’t digging it, but I haven’t picked it back up. Guess I should try it out again.
“So I stopped at a Jack in the Box on the way here, and the girl behind the counter said, "Hiya! Are you having an awesome day?" Not, "How are you doing today?" No. "Are you having an awesome day?" Which is pretty shitty because it puts the onus on me to disagree with her, like if I'm not having an "awesome day," suddenly I'm the negative one. Usually when people ask how I'm doing, the real answer is I'm doing shitty, but I can't say I'm doing shitty, because I don't even have a good reason to be doing shitty. So if I say, "I'm doing shitty," then they say, "Why? What's wrong?" And I have to be like, "I don't know, all of it?" So instead, when people ask me how I'm doing, I usually say, "I am doing so great." But when this girl at the Jack in the Box asked me if I was having an awesome day, I thought, well, today I'm actually allowed to feel shitty, today I have a good reason, so I said to her, "Well, my mom died." And she immediately burst into tears. So now I have to comfort her, which is annoying, and meanwhile, there's a line of people forming behind me, who are all giving me these real judgy looks because I made the Jack in the Box girl cry. And she's bawling, and she's saying, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry," and I'm like, "It's fine, it's fine. I mean, it's not fine, but, you know, it's... fine. And I would like to order a Double Jack Meal, and I've kinda got somewhere to be, so maybe less with the crying and more with the frying, huh?" And the girl apologizes, again, and she offers me a free churro with my meal. And as I'm leaving, I think, "I just got a free churro because my mom died." No one ever tells you when your mom dies, you get a free churro.”
It's why I hate when people ask hows it going, like I can only say I'm well because if I say otherwise it becomes a whole other matter and people just immediately assume you're fucking depressed and want to get into it so you can only say "I'm well" and it's just a bit of a pointless question really.

See, this is what I don't get about you gamers. You know the kids are gonna find out, but you never just never tell them the title- like, this one guy in New Haven, right? City's burning, people dying, blah blah blah. This guy rushes me with a spoon. A fricking spoon. And I'm just laughing. So I scoop out his eyeballs with it, he's bumping into stuff and his kids are all, "waahhhhh!,” and, ah... I dunno I guess you had to be there. Anyway, the moral is: you're a bitch.
I’m really sorry to tell you that that time may be now because I only learned this was borderlands 2 from the comments. And I’m a certified gay mergirl
I honestly used to feel like this explained my life. I don't believe in determisism but it felt like I was just a generally depressed person. Then a bunch of shit happened, I went to therapy and got put on meds.
I highly recommend Borderlands 2. I still replay it from time to time, the gameplay is a blast and the villain is top tier, he seriously made the game.
Going on 2 years since my dad passed. I have trouble getting over it. He was only 48. When it was getting close to the 1st year anniversary I was stressed at work. I wanted to be around my friends. One of my best friends now thinks I was stalking her in the mmo ffxiv (only source of contact with her, but known her for like 4 years). Now I lost a friend cause I can't get over my lost of my dad. But can't really talk about with people other then a therapist and that is getting expensive.
Love it lol. Replaying through BL2 at the moment (Haven't played it in years) and forgot how good it is. Me and 2 buddies just picked up BL3 on sale and are gonna start a co-op Friday.
You have to have played the game to understand the character. This isn't a one off haha Im depressed joke, his whole character arc is fucking depressing in 2, you feel for the guy, you understand his depression. Spoilers No one comes to his birthday party, he's the last claptrap unit left, he was constantly tortured for awhile by Captain Flynt, people are mean to him But he's a hero, ain't a lock he can't pick. I don't want to give up the whole game and spoil it for whoever hasn't played this masterpiece.
And to think, this was the guy who started a Robot Revolution. Questioned me not being dead, helped Jack become a corporate dictator on Pandora, and told me about new missions on bounty boards.
Working in sales where it definitely helps to be cheerful and upbeat, sometimes I forget to switch gears back to baseline and have definitely encountered this issue, ha.
After playing BL3 a bunch, I went and got the GotY Borderlands for PS4. I remember being told that BL3 was hard, but BL1 seems to blow the other games out of the water in terms of difficulty. Is it just me? I did play the series in order of release, but just don't remember BL1 being this difficult.
This series of games has ALWAYS been the cringiest, neckbeardiest, try hardiest trash of all time. I do not understand the appeal. Never have, never will. It is not even close to approaching funny.
Good old annoying Claptrap. Relatable on many fronts.
There's no stopping us now, minion! Together, we shall free Pandora! I Will lead you into battle! I will destroy Handsome Jack with my bare hands! I will.... STAIRS?! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

The birthday mission on borderlands 2 hits hard for me.
Tiny Tinas is a thoroughly enjoyable game
This is also my default humor, I just don't know how to classify it
The good old days
Ah yes, Borderlands 2. So great.
One of my favorite games of all time, and imo one of the few games where all the dlc is worth it. Would highly recommend the Handsome Collection to anyone interested in it.
Possibly The Greatest.
My friends and i all rented it for a week during a school holiday and it was fantastic.
My #1 game of all time!

Still playing it to this day, amazing game
Somehow it ran pretty okay on my 2010 MacBook pro in college...
do you have to play the first one to understand it?
And then they ducked it up
Stairs?!

That's why I've switched to "Is there anything I can do?", cause sometimes people just want some space

“Bah. I’d complain but who’d listen, amirite? Lol, how are you??”
It's been ages...WHY CAN I HEAR IT.
Because he is so dam memorabele and says everything in the same tone of voice because his programmers made him that way.
Because this gets reposted non-stop, maybe. You never got to forget it.
PROTECT ME, SQUIRE!!!!
Thx for reminding me to play bl2 again
“I wonder what it’s like to have a belly button”
"Yessss, look into my eyes. You're getting sleepy. You're getting... zzzzzz... Zzzzzz..."
I always found it funny that his programmers gave him the ability to feel depressed, but not the ability to sound like it.
Here I am with a brain the size of a planet and they ask me to pick up a piece of paper. Call that job satisfaction? I don't.
I'm sad that I had to go down this far for a Hitchhikers reference.
The time is coming soon when the majority of people seeing this, will not know what game this is off the bat.
See, this is what I don't get about you gamers. You know the kids are gonna find out, but you never just never tell them the title- like, this one guy in New Haven, right? City's burning, people dying, blah blah blah. This guy rushes me with a spoon. A fricking spoon. And I'm just laughing.

What meds did they give you dude?
Thank you for that. What you wrote was honest and simple, and hopeful. Thanks
I tried different medicine and still nothing. Therapy helped a tiny bit but I didn’t really feel like it was helping long term.
Ah, the nostalgia. First time I heard this I laughed pretty damn hard. I love Claptrap and hate him at the same time.
Wub wub wub wub... DROP!
WHICH I WILL
"I don't like this... this is making me nervous. Take a deep breath- I can't breathe! This is just a recording of someone breathing!”
Life. Don't talk to me about life.
Alan Rickman’s Marvin is so ingrained in my head that this one is almost jarring lol
“Whenever claptrap speaks I feel my brains cells committing suicide one by one”
Claptrap P. Claptrappington is the best.
CL4P-TP or my friends call me Claptrap, or they would if any of them were still ALIVE or existed in the first place!
Hey guys check it out I’m dancing, I’m dancing!
My fave BL Character🦾
I have only one question for you... EXPLOSIONS?!
I enjoyed getting to play as Claptrap in The Presequel. Not having to deal with the oxygen stuff was a nice bonus.
That reminds me of how Pathfinder in Apex Legends always sounds ridiculously happy.
Watch out friends, I may kill you!
MY ASS saved all your asses.
Favorite game.
This is just what happens when you work for Randy Pitchford.
"People think robots can't feel pain, but we actually feel it in slow motion, with great intensity."
what game is this?
Borderlands 2
I highly recommend Borderlands 2. I still replay it from time to time, the gameplay is a blast and the villain is top tier, he seriously made the game.
He's just like me fr fr
Going on 2 years since my dad passed. I have trouble getting over it. He was only 48. When it was getting close to the 1st year anniversary I was stressed at work. I wanted to be around my friends.

My favorite ClapTrap quote isn't even technically a ClapTrap quote but it's by the same voice actor doing the same voice.
Ah, Claptrap. The Jar Jar Binks of video games.
Claptrap is hilarious though Jar Jar is only funny to a certain subsect of people
Imagine an entire game full of claptraps. Heck, even you play as claptrap, inside a claptrap fighting claptraps.
“Intentionally annoying is still annoying”
Absolutely loved borderlands the pre sequel.
I always play as Claptrap because you don’t have to worry about oxygen.
Love it lol. Replaying through BL2 at the moment (Haven't played it in years) and forgot how good it is. Me and 2 buddies just picked up BL3 on sale and are gonna start a co-op Friday.
Story in BL3 isnt as good as 2 but okay game and heard season passes are rip off
BL3 is awesome with friends - the main story is a bit "meh" but the DLC stories are awesome and really well done
literally the best line in any BL game
Claptrap made borderlands a more enjoyable experience.
If we’re being honest
Classic claptrap we’ll never get to see in upcoming Borderlands titles ever again. Rip borderlands 1 to presequel claptrap. You will be missed.
meirl
Haha I’m quirky I have depression
You have to have played the game to understand the character. This isn't a one off haha Im depressed joke, his whole character arc is fucking depressing in 2, you feel for the guy, you understand his depression.

I don't want to give up the whole game and spoil it for whoever hasn't played this masterpiece.
Oh shush, you bumbling buffoon, the nuances of borderlands 2’s incredibly advanced humor is clearly beyond you.
JFC i think this is me anytime im dealing with something.
“I hate you more than puppies, Claptrap.”
That's how people see me. I always get the "you get angry? I don't think it's possible".
As someone who always sounds depressed, all I got from it is people thinking I don't like hanging out with them
Tsundere bot
"My Ass... It's full of stars!!!" -also Claptrap, bl3
I ducking Love Claptrap in BL2
Me after my girlfriend left me for another guy
Every fucking Job ever
and now i’m gonna go play bl2 and 3
I always thought he was cute
He’s definitely worked retail
I RELATE
And to think, this was the guy who started a Robot Revolution. Questioned me not being dead, helped Jack become a corporate dictator on Pandora, and told me about new missions on bounty boards.
Holy cow this makes me want to play this game for 14 hours on end again
The fact that I can relate to this is why I love this fucker so much.
totallynotrobots
Claptrap is by far my favorite character in the entire series, but all of my friends hate him
This is probably a really dumb question but is this guy from borderlands or New vegas?
This is claptrap a robot from Borderlands. I think the guy your thinking about is Victor from Fallout New Vegas.
Borderlands
Man i miss another borderlands game
The one game where turning off voicelines improves it in a lot of places.
God these pretzels suck
"When clients praise my amiable disposition"
B2 was such a good game 😅
Got caught off guard, though it was a Babylon 5 moment
A lot of people think robots can't feel pain, but we actually feel it in slow motion with great intensity.
bro I almost cried on that quest where claptrap had the party with the pizza he had all alone.
I actually read this as Alan Rickman. RIP
Hehe
… I wonder what it’s like to have a belly button
Clap Trap is the true Jar Jar Binks
Never understood the hate for claptrap. Such a sad and lonely character who only wants to be recognized and accepted by his friends.
Is it a reference to the Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy?
Samee
Life. Don’t talk to me about life.
No one is ever gonna be like clap trap. What a unique character
I hear that Claptrap
fr
relatable
I love claptrap
At least show up on his birthday party :(
Pretty much how I am every day
Fax
Fuck you Claptrap !
Working in sales where it definitely helps to be cheerful and upbeat, sometimes I forget to switch gears back to baseline and have definitely encountered this issue, ha.
Me at work.
i feel u claptrap sounds like my daily life unfortunately
Old memory found and unlocked
After playing BL3 a bunch, I went and got the GotY Borderlands for PS4. I remember being told that BL3 was hard, but BL1 seems to blow the other games out of the water in terms of difficulty. Is it just me? I did play the series in order of release, but just don't remember BL1 being this difficult.
BL 1 was by far the best imo.
This is failsafe in destiny 2
Whose your favorite Vault Hunter and why is it Maya?
me_irl
I live by “Good plan, great plan".
This is one of my favorite quotes of all time
Probably one of my favorite characters in anything ever.
Cool Post
He is all face. The red/orange/brown parallelogram is his anguished mouth.
I never did finish Borderlands 2. I got tired of throwing my body at a boss and never went back to it lol.
I hate clapjack 👎
ok we get it claptrap
I actually heard this in my head.
Same
Claptrap was based on Collin from Hitchhikers right?
This series of games has ALWAYS been the cringiest, neckbeardiest, try hardiest trash of all time. I do not understand the appeal. Never have, never will. It is not even close to approaching funny.
Chill daddy
What a low effort post. “Me IRL” are you posting memes like this is your Facebook wall?
While definitely relevant and relatable...
When people treat depression as something that’s cute
It's a quote from a video game ya nunce
This is way to relatable
[удалено]
Ok your PFP and username what sort of squirrel or how tiny are you
Lmao that's what I thought when I heard that the first time. I was like same.
Fucking claptrap
Reminds me of a quote from Azumanga Daioh, “I don’t have any special features or anything, but apparently I’m a robot that can feel pain.”
the weird part claptrap is hated by a lot of people but funny he is the most relatable in some sense
Moredcai is pretty relatable too. I’m also envious of Roland.
I think most redditors can relate to being programmed to look happy, despite being absolutely miserable.
Shut the fuck up Steve!
