I absolutely love my f/os voice but my f/o is voiced by J.K Simmons and I'm a fan of the portal series (I'm also a marvel fan too but that's besides the point) so every once in awhile when I'm listening to my f/os voice I can't help but think of the fucking lemons rant from portal 2 (if you look up portal 2 lemons you should probably find it) which is fun because my f/o is also one of my comfort characters so I would listen to his voice for some comfort
-🌌🛸
off topic but does Tumblr make anyone else's phones lag like crazy or is it just me

My new life goal
To one day meet J.K. Simmons and ask him to recite his "when life gives you lemons" monologue from Portal...but substitute Cave Johnson with Stanford Pines.
The beauty of it is that it honestly wouldn't change all that much.

I know I’m probably way behind on this one, but I was just told that Ketheric Thorm is voiced by the same actor (J.K. Simmons) who played Jonah Jameson (the guy who wants pictures of spider man) and also Cave Johnson from portal???
Like, I need a “Ketheric doesn’t want your damn lemons” edit this instant

People say that Cave Johnson is terrible, the worst, a capitalist with daddy’s money that went from making shower curtains to starting a whole scientific lab that he knows nothing about and constantly berates his employees who are the scientists that actually know what’s going on in that salt mine of a facility....
And they’re right. Absolutely. Terrible man.
But... why do I love him? u_u

Headcanon Gaster Voice
Been wanting to reveal my headcanon voice for Gaster for quite some time now but rather than just simply saying what it was in a status update or journal, I felt that I should do something creative and funny, hence why I made this silly thing. XD 
Anyways, if you haven’t already figured it out, my headcanon voice for Gaster is the amazingly talented J.K. Simmons and what I have here is a collage of several photos of characters he’s portrayed (and one photo of him as himself) with Gaster’s head (and Sans’s head in two pics) on their bodies. Think of it as a sort of tribute to Mr. Simmons himself as well as a fun and creative way to reveal my headcanon voice for Gaster. Fun fact: Around the time I started writing stories; J.K. Simmons was the first person I had in mind for my official headcanon voice for Gaster but then actors like James Spader, Josh Brolin, and James Cromwell kind of made me question my decision. But with every passing year, I never ruled out Mr. Simmons and after nearly five years of writing stories and tons of thought, I can now say that J.K. Simmons is my official headcanon voice for Gaster! Yay! :D Now that’s three characters I have official headcanon voices for (Asriel and Burgerpants are the other two)! :)
Now as for the photos themselves, you probably noticed a bunch of phrases written in Wingdings. Some of you probably translated them already but most of you are probably scratching your heads wondering what hell they’re saying. Lol XD And if that is the case, worry not! I will translate them for you and also talk about each of the pics I’ve chosen for this collage as well as why I chose them. As for the order, I will be rotating clockwise starting with the pic in the top left.
Top left pic: Invincible! You may have heard of it. But if not, you’re probably aware of that “Think, Mark, think!” meme. Or in this case, “THINK, SANS, THINK!” XD And of course Gaster is Omni-Man and Sans is *insert Invincible title card and theme here along with a splash of blood XD* (anyone that’s seen the show will get that joke XD). Say, remember the battles from “W.D. Gaster, the Ultimate Tickle Master?” Gaster “annihilating” everyone that tried to tickle him? Pretty similar to that shocking battle at the end of the first episode of Invincible, don’t you think? Except nobody gets hurt severely or dies in the battles in my story. But it’s similar to the fight in the show in the sense that it’s one OP as f*** man vs several lesser opponents.
To the right of the Invincible pic is Cave Johnson from Portal 2. Cave and Gaster are both devoted to science and are deceased and/or missing during the events of their respective games. And in Wingdings, it simply says, “Lemons”. If you’ve played Portal 2, then you know what I’m talking about. Yep, no need to say any more than that. XD 
(Before I move on to the next pic, I would like to say that in the upper right corner; the Wingdings translate to, “J.K. Simmons as W.D. Gaster” Nothing else, just that.)
Ok, then to the right of Cave Johnson is a picture of Terence Fletcher, the cruel musical instructor from the 2014 film, Whiplash. Remember when Gaster pretended to be a jerk in “A Humerus Sleepover (Chapter 5)?” Well, this is the essentially the character that Gaster was acting like and believe it or not, at the time of writing “A Humerus Sleepover,” I envisioned an angry J.K. Simmons but I was completely unaware of his Fletcher character’s existence! And for those that don’t know, J.K. Simmons actually won an Oscar for his portrayal of this character; an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor to be exact! And in Wingdings, it says, “NOT QUITE MY TEMPO” Probably Fletcher’s most famous line in the movie along with, “There are no two words in the English language more harmful than “good job.”” 
Then below Fletcher, we have Ford Pines from Gravity Falls, one of my favorite animated shows of all time and one I’ve actually referenced in a few of my stories. Ford and Gaster are both scientists with rather unique pairs of hands; Ford with 6 fingers on each hand and Gaster with holes in his hands. And they were both trapped in voids too! But perhaps the most important thing I should mention here is that Ford was kind of my primary inspiration for Gaster’s personality in my stories. Gaster’s kind-hearted behavior towards children and love of role-playing games for example, very similar to Ford! :) Also, that Z.G. JDVWHU is a cipher. Decode it and it says, “W.D. GASTER”
Then in the lower-right corner is Tenzin from the Legend of Korra. Now, I’m going to be honest. I haven’t seen a single episode of The Legend of Korra (I’ll get around to it eventually, I promise). But from what I can tell, Tenzin’s a good and wise kind-hearted man and anyone that’s read my stories will know that that’s what I view Gaster as. A good and wise kind-hearted man, not a villain.
Then to the left of Tenzin is a pic of J.K. Simmons as himself lifting weights and getting buff irl! XD Why did I include this pic in the collage and put Gaster’s head on J.K.’s body? Simple, I did it because I thought it would be funny. XD No other reason, just that. Lol
Then to the left of buff J.K. Simmons is the Farmers Insurance man. You know, that man from the commercials with that jingle, “We are farmers, bum ba dum bum bum bum bum.” I hate to say it but if you haven’t seen at least one of these commercials, then you’re living under a rock. Anyways, in wingdings, it says, “We know a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two.” You can’t miss it. Mr. Simmons says it at the end of every commercial, right before the famous jingle. ;)
Then to the left of Farmers Insurance is the yellow M&M with a Gaster makeover. Lol XD And the white symbol on his lower body is the Wingding symbol for a lowercase M. “m” But wait, doesn’t the yellow M&M sound different compared to all of the other characters in this collage? Why, yes, he does. But I chose him anyway because I can picture Gaster sounding like him when talking to children in a silly voice. XD
Then to the left to the yellow M&M is a collection of pics of J. Jonah Jameson and Peter Parker from Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man 2. Gaster is JJJ and Sans is Peter Parker. XD And by the looks of it, Gaster finds it “humerus” that Sans asked him to pay him in advance. XD Had to choose that scene from Spider-Man 2 over something like, “Get me pictures of Spider-Man!” I just had to! And I believe the heads I chose are just perfect! Lol XD Anyways, in wingdings, in the third pic, it says, “*WHEEZE* HAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” And in the fourth pic, it says, “YOU SERIOUS?”
And then last but not least, in the center is Howard Silk Prime and Howard Silk from a show called, “Counterpart.” I am only three episodes into this show but in a nutshell, it’s a show where it is possible for people to travel between two universes and interact with their other selves. In most cases, their other selves have different personalities and occupations than them. For example, Howard Silk, the protagonist of the show, is a friendly man that lacks combat skills (at least at first, I’m assuming) and he’s basically been at square one at the place he works for years. But Howard Silk Prime, his other self, on the other hand is kind of a jerk (has a “tired of your crap” personality) but is heavily experienced in combat and has had several promotions over the years. Does any of this make sense? If not, imagine this: imagine if it was possible for the Undertale characters to interact with their Deltarune counterparts. Royal Scientist Alphys interacting with school teacher Alphys, Royal Guard Captain Undyne interacting with cop Undyne, King Asgore interacting with flower store manager Asgore, that sort of deal.
And there you have it, folks! :) Maybe you laughed when you saw this collage of photos, maybe you got a minor chuckle out of it, or maybe you felt indifferent about it. Well, whatever the case is, thanks for viewing. :) And if you’re reading this, thank you for taking the time to read everything I had to say. :)

Alright you should vote for quote 1. about the lemons. it's from portal 2, one of the damn greatest games i've ever played. and this just so happens to be one of the most iconic quotes from it. made me go crazy obsessed a few years back. and guess who's saying it? J.K. simmons. this isn't even accounting for the pretty great reaction GLaDOS has to it
Quote 1: "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 the hell 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 who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!" - Cave Johnson, Portal 2
Quote 2: "And the universe said you are not separate from every other thing and the universe said you are the universe tasting itself, talking to itself, reading its own code and the universe said I love you because you are love." - Minecraft End Credits, Minecraft
Propaganda
Quote 1: You should vote for this quote because of course it's funny, but also because it is a great callback to earlier in the game when Cave Johnson says “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade” referring to continuing to use moon rocks for portals, despite them making him “deathly ill”. This quote also provides a lot of characterization for Cave, showing how he is slightly insane and has a very big ego, big enough to think that he has the capability to somehow burn down life's house. - @knight-of-hallownest, he really wants this quote to win
Quote 2: Every 2000’s kids knows this quote. It’s iconic! - Submitter

My uncle told me he lives in the same neighborhood as J.K Simmons.  I’ll tell him to ask him about the lemons for me and what to do when live gives them to you.

There's so many so I picked what I believe to be happier asks! 💗🐹🌠🎁🌻☕️⚡️🍀🐬🍰🐧💫🐼
Emoji Asks
💗: If you could hug anyone, who would it be?
J.K. Simmons. I need to apologize to him for wronging him in my capture the flag dream…
🐹: What are some of your favourite Pokémon and why?
Bulbasaur is one of my favorites too; we have that in common! 😄 I also love Riolu and Lucario because, like, they’re just cool. (I bought my first Pokémon plush, a Riolu, after seeing Lucario and the Mystery of Mew.) I also just love fighting type Pokémon in general! 💥
🌠: If you were in charge of the world, what would the world look like?
Oh jeez. I’m new to being a grownup so I don’t know too much about anything, so I’d start with the basics: sending Trump to jail and replacing him with someone honest-ish who knew what they were doing. Then I’d find some helpers who were older and more knowledgeable than me and try to take it from there.
🎁: What never fails to make you happy?
These stupid posts! 😆
🌻: If you could change three things about the world what would you change?
Okay so off the top of my head:
✩ I’d ban a couple people from the Internet forever.✩ I’d do my best to make college more affordable/accessible.✩ I’d make it so that everyone had food, water, shelter and clothing! (Is that four things? I’m gonna count it as one.)
☕️: Talk about your ideal day.
Ooh, questions like this always stump me. All I want is a pleasant day that I can remember vividly and associate with a certain smell (or set of smells) later. You know what I mean? Often, I’ll enjoy a day not because I’m doing anything particularly spectacular, but just because it feels good.
⚡️: If you had any superpower, what would it be and why?
That’s easy: the inability to misplace things‼︎
🍀: If you could be any fictional character’s best friend/lover, which fictional character would you choose?
Lúcio from Overwatch! 🐸 IDEC if he’s my friend or my boyfriend; I just want him in my life.
🐬: If you could transform into any animal/magical creature, what would you be and why?
A goblin. I basically already am one at heart.
🍰: What are some of your favorite sugary foods?
Any dessert with lemon or dark chocolate in it, I love! (Have you ever been to the Melting Pot? They have INCREDIBLE dark chocolate fondue. And you can get it served with cheesecake.)
🐧: Describe yourself in 3 words.
Pink, cold and confident!
💫: Who inspires you?
My dad, sometimes. Also Internet artists who’ve been at it for longer than I have and know more than me. And SARK; she’s pretty cool. Uhhhh, dentists. Tumblr user glumshoe. People who get really good revenge.
🐼: If you could meet anyone, who would it be?
Since I already talked about the Simmons, I’m gonna say Moe from The Three Stooges! He’s pretty dead by now but I still love him.

one thing thats really funny about this post is how a lotta ppl are flabbergasted about J.K. simmons specifically which i find hilarious bc his voice is so distinctive
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(note: stanFORD pines, science grunkle not con artist grunkle, in case anyone was confused. LEE is alex hirsch!)
i assume part of it is you kno, Acting. even tho his voice SOUNDS the same for all of these hes Acting and selling them as completely different personalities so i get not making the connection! which is the point!!! (also the one person who went a while inbetween portal and GF)
...still funny to me tho lmao, especially considering how many people were making edits of ford giving the lemons speech
voice acting isnt just about How Many voices you can do (tho that is a really valuable skill), there are plenty of voice actors who are known for doing a single voice, usually just their normal voice, or they get most famous off roles that are just their normal voice
patrick warburton (joe from family guy, kronk)
kristen schaal (mabel pines, louise belcher)
H john benjamin (archer, bob belcher)
J.K. simmons (cave johnson, stanford pines)
gilbert gottfried (iago, digit from cyberchase)
(note: just listing a couple of their so goddamn many roles each for recognitions sake, they got so many more of course, also some of them like H john benjamin might have more vocal range than their normal voice, but you know what i mean)
the difference is these VAs 1. are cast for the roles that are right for that one voice theyre known for 2. do a good job at that one voice 3. most of their voices are memorable and unique
...chris pratt is being cast just for the name recognition, in a role hes not suited to, and doing a shit job, with the most boring ass normal dude voice in the universe. which, yeah sure it worked in the lego movie where he was literally playing Normal Guy McDudeface. it dont work for an iconic character known for having a unique voice.
so like. having no vocal range or just using your normal voice for your biggest roles is fine!! if your normal voice fits. if chris pratt wants to play more Normal McDudeface chars, well he can still go fuck himself for being a homophobic piece of shit and supporting his 3%er bro of course. but he could give a passable performance. sucks ass as mario tho!!!
anyway no "you can still tell its jack black why are you praising his voice huh" isnt a good arguement. yeah you can tell its him but, besides the fact that no he is actually changing his voice to fit the role even if its still recognizable as himself, hes doing a good job at it. thats the difference. his normal but slightly to the left voice works. pratts doesnt.
