History FanFic / ItsMyLife

* CloudCuckooLander - The author "Marrissa the Writer" seems to be one. Her responses to some of the negative reviews are just downright odd such as when stated her jokes about Chell being mentally retarded due to brain damage were DudeNotFunny she replied by saying its okay because "[[CompletelyMissingThePoint CHELL IS JUST A PRETEND CARTOON!]]".

** [[spoiler:WesternAnimation/ThomasTheTankEngine]] of all things appears as a ''villain'' in ''THE MARRISSA GAMES''.

* StockDinosaurs - ''[[TyrannosaurusRex T. rex]]'', spelled as... "trex".

* YouKeepUsingThatWord - Wheatley keeps saying "wank" as the author believes its simply a British insult. Leading to some hilarious AccidentalInnuendo lines such as "You can bloody do it Marrissa. Wank them good!" and "Help me Marrissa this bloody bugger is trying to wank me!"
** More specifically, she seems to believe it means "to beat someone up".
** Also, [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/God_Save_the_Queen "god save the queen"]] can be found in Wheatley's vocabulary, which is actually the name for the British anthem, and not used in everyday life, and much less in ''Portal 2'' case.
** "Feces" is not the same word as "faces".

--->To stimulate someone is to yank their [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar pé]][[GratuitousFrench nis]] (or Willy/man parts/privates as you 7-year-olds put it) until they get an orgasm.

* {{Cameo}} - The zombies from Franchise/ResidentEvil and Franchise/DeadSpace appear briefly.

* CrossOver - Mainly between VideoGame/{{Portal}}, VideoGame/TeamFortress2 and Literature/TheHungerGames, there are also elements from VideoGame/HalfLife, Film/MenInBlack and WesternAnimation/InvaderZim, the zombies from Franchise/ResidentEvil and Franchise/DeadSpace have cameos, a [[{{Videogame/Fallout}} super mutant]] briefly appears, and Marrissa cries that she has been VideoGame/Left4Dead.
** In a recent chapter of ''THE MARRISSA GAMES'', [[Film/MenInBlack Agents J and K]] battle the characters from VideoGame/AmnesiaTheDarkDescent in VideoGame/HalfLife College. [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment This doesn't really have much at all to do with the overall story]].
** In ''TEEN FORTRESS 2'' [[spoiler: Franchise/HarryPotter characters have begun to appear, and Harry and Wheatley share an identity, as do Ron and Gale "Thunderpants".]]
** Marrissa later claimed she wanted ''ITS MY LIFE!'' and ''TEEN FORTRESS 2'' to take place in the same continuity as an Invader Zim fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/800177/1/Love_Knows_No_Race Love Knows No Race]].

''ITS MY LIFE!'' is perhaps the most infamous ''VideoGame/{{Portal}}'' fanfic, and has been compared to ''Fanfic/MyImmortal'' and the like. It begins by telling the story of [[MarySue Marrissa Roberts]], a test subject in "Portal Labs" who is seemingly Chell's sister, has [[NewPowersAsThePlotDemands "speshul powers"]] and is [[ArtisticLicenseBiology somehow pregnant with Wheatly's "robot ball/human baby"]], putting her against the "[[EmoTeen goth emo]]" [=GLaDOS=] and the [[DrugsAreBad drugs-smoking and beer-drinking]] Atlas and [[RougeAnglesOfSatin P-Boy]]. And that's just the first chapter. Along its course it also involves [[DidNotDoTheBloodyResearch copious British insults]], time travel to a HighSchoolAU version of the past of Portal Labs with inexplicable appearances of the ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2'' characters, evil twins, evil clones and a fusion of Chell and [=GLaDOS=].

-->I GOT A REVIEW SAYIN I WAS [[JumpingTheShark JUMPIN THE SHARK]] ([[CriticalResearchFailure ITS A TV WORD]]) AN I AM KINNA RUNNIN OUT OF IDEAS SO I THINK ONSE MARRISSA FIGHTS ASSIRRAM [[TropesAreNotGood ILL END THE STORY]] BUT IT WILL BE THE MOST EPIC AN ENTENSE END YET SO MAYBE THE LAST ONE WILL BE CHAPTER 20? FIND OUT!

* OverlyLongName - Averted for the MarySue, which is quite surprising given what [[MyImmortal the story is an homage to]].

* TrollFic - Was confirmed to be such. Doombly (also known as Creator/SueMary) mentioned he wrote ''ITS MY LIFE!'' because he wanted Portal to have its own FanFic/MyImmortal.

* BadassFamily - Not only Marrissa has speshul powers and Wheatly has the PowerOfLove, their child, who [[PregnantBadass isn't even]] ''[[PregnantBadass born]]'' [[PregnantBadass yet]], can survive an attack from Assirram.

* BrainUploading - Gabe Jonson turns Caroline into [=GLaDOS=] (named after her mother, Principal [=GLaDOS=]) and later Cave turns Wheatly into a robo ball.

* RunningGag: If we believe the [=LotD=] interpretation of ''ITS MY LIFE!'', Marrissa has never dropped anything that she picked up, and therefore always has a whole bunch of stuff in her hands. This, of course, is persistently brought up.

-->'''Skepkitty (in his MST):''' Apparently, [=MarissaTheWriter=] thinks that if it’s “the past”, just any old person from the past can be written into the story. Next she’s going to have UsefulNotes/JuliusCaesar give everyone printing presses.

-->'''Skepkitty (in his MST):''' Marissa has a very weird set of morals. Shooting your sister in the head because she’s brain-damaged = [[BlatantLies fine]]. Leaving your zombie sister who wants to eat your flesh in android hell, where she will presumably be fine since she’s not an android = WE MUST SAVE HER?!

Due to their notoriety, they have gained... ''[[LoveItOrHateIt various]]'' following. The many varieties of [=MarissaTheWriter=] fan content include, but are not limited to:

While it was signed by "[=MarrissaTheWriter=]", its authorship was eventually claimed by Insane Guy of DOOM, better known to the TrollFic world as Creator/SueMary.

** [=ASBusinessMagnet=] is by far the most prolific in this regard, and has outwritten Insane Guy of DOOM and created an entire distinct ExpandedUniverse based on ''ITS MY LIFE!'', as well as a compilation of her own and Insane Guy of DOOM's stories in the form of the [[http://istrige-namuose.tumblr.com/post/94512208128/marrissathewriter-complete-anthology MarrissaTheWriter Complete Anthology]]. For a complete listing of her own stories, see ''[[FanFic/ITSMYLifeExpandedUniverse ITS MY LIFE! ]]''[[FanFic/ITSMYLifeExpandedUniverse Expanded Universe]].

* TrollFic - Was confirmed to be such. Insane Guy of DOOM (also known as Creator/SueMary) mentioned he wrote ''ITS MY LIFE!'' because he wanted Portal to have its own FanFic/MyImmortal.

--->'''Insane Guy of DOOM:''' "Chaptar 2" is up, which is actually chapter 3, which is actually chapter 4. [[WritersCannotDoMath Marrissa is not good with counting.]]

** Also, Marrissa and other characters are (or just attempt to look) GenreSavvy and are very careful not to mess up the "time streem", but do anyway: if Marrissa took Wheatley from the past she couldn't have met him in the future, because he simply wouldn't have been there.

** [[spoiler:ThomasTheTankEngine]] of all things appears as a ''villain'' in ''THE MARRISSA GAMES''.

-->'''Skepkitty (in his MST):''' Apparently, [=MarissaTheWriter=] thinks that if it’s “the past”, just any old person from the past can be written into the story. Next she’s going to have [[Creator/GaiusJuliusCaesar Julius Caesar]] give everyone printing presses.

* LostForever - ''ITS MY LIFE!'' was ''eventually'' removed by Critics United. Luckily, though, [[KeepCirculatingTheTapes there were backups]].
** Marrissa [[{{Angrish}} did not take this very well]], as can be seen in the quotes section.

*** People are brought back several other ways as well. GLaDOS is brought back to life accidentally when Marrissa strikes her with lightning, and Wheatley comes back by Marrissa traveling back in time to bring his past self to the present to replace the dead Wheatley. The obvious and plentiful paradoxes that would cause are completely ignored.

** Also when Chell and GLaDOS fuse, she becomes known as "CHELLGADOS", most reviewers believed it to be a simple misspelling of "CHELLGLADOS" only for Marrissa to explain "I NO THAT GLADOS IS SPELLED GLADOS I CALLED HER FUSION CHELLGADOS BECOS CHELL ALREADY HAS THE LS AN IT [[RuleOfCool SOUNDED MORE COOLER]]!"

* DeathIsCheap - GLaDOS is resurrected by a lighting bolt after attempting "Sewiside".

-->So GLaDOS’ super-effective plan was;
