This, like does op genuinely think barny held a crowbar during the 7 hour war just waiting for gordan


PlayerCORE19

Don’t be rude, it’s not that obvious on first thought 


sad_cheese67

nobody would hold onto the same crowbar for ~20 years just waiting for some guy who was presumed dead to return


[deleted]

But he loved him so much he kept it :(


BENBOI_1

Only chad barney would


KolareTheKola

We talking about the man who remembers he owes a beer to a presumed dead man 20 years ago


GordonFreemanGaming

He still owes me it


KolareTheKola

but he remembers


GordonFreemanGaming

I remind him every week at work


KolareTheKola

except between 200X and 202X


GordonFreemanGaming

i stopped the cascade from happening, meaning i didn't need to be put in stasis you're thinking about the game lore, i'm talking about real life


FuzzyPcklz

well he did remember the beer he owed gordon :)


timmymacbackup

Yes it is


TheChumbaWumbaHunt

This is the part where we realize Hunt Down the Freeman fans are a part of this fandom now


A123reddit321

That game has fans? 😮


sollicit

Yeah sorry you're right. Barney should've included a /s so the player wouldn't misinterpret.


RockingBib

And when you see Dr. Breen, tell him I said "L + ration + you fell off"


sollicit

L + Ratio + You're a puppet


AccessProfessional37

Well Gordon carried a crowbar for the entirety of the invasion in HL1 and the whole story of HL2 and the expansions


AccessProfessional37

Well Gordan did hold one for the entirety of HL1 and HL2 so...


Turbogoblin999

They are in Europe, he could have bought it at an Aldi's or a Tesco.


TURRETCUBE

on this, gman could have taken it to barney for him to find so he makes the "joke". every crowbar freeman picks up is the same one except the second one in half life 1


Random-Existance

That's the same one too, the HECU thought it was garbage so they threw it in with Gordon


SufficientTangelo367

That one image of Barney has me, simply because it's the main image used when referring to Barney on Combine Overwiki. I dunno what's making me funny about it.


p13t3rm

It threw me off for a second. Didn’t realize the white in the corners was his armor, so it looked like he was in Big Head mode.


gergobergo69

until you mentioned it I thought he just have a big head as a meme


SufficientTangelo367

Like those chibi-fied designs of Corpse Party characters.


LaserTurboShark69

It's the raised eyebrow


AshleyUncia

Because it's a different crowbar. Hell you don't even have 'One' Crowbar in Half-Life. You get a different one after being knocked out by the Hgrunts and put in the crusher. It's also possible to skip the crowbar in Unforeseen Consequences and instead pick it up at the opening of Blast Pit before you take the elevator down. So yeah, there's three possible crowbars Gorden can carry in Half-Life as it is. Frankly, it's weird that you think there was only ever 'one' crowbar.


LionOfNaples

I assumed the crowbar in the trash compacter is the same one you got from the beginning. Like the HECU grunts tossed Gordon in there along with his crowbar.


tinylobo

I mean if you think about it, the grunts carried him a long way. They probably disarmed Gordon and ditched that first crowbar back in the same room where they beat him up.


Stefan_Montenegro

3 Possible crowbars?? Half Life 3 confirmed???


lungfesh

please stop talking

Reinierblob

Is that a subnet mask? If so; Why?


ThecoolerSlick

Whoosh


Reinierblob

That’s right, I didn’t get the joke


IamtheDoc1

There's this funny me-me on the interwebs where you quote a string of numbers with dots interspersed so that it looks like someone's IP address to whoever you're arguing with. Can be on the serious side: someone seriously posturing to look bigger and badder, or serious on the off chance in a blue moon someone's a real H@x0r. And on the funny ironic side based on those first two, which is what the OC was going for.


Reinierblob

Ahh that makes sense haha. Cheers!


DoktoroChapelo

>Frankly, it's weird that you think there was only ever 'one' crowbar. There's a hypothesis that every crowbar is the same crowbar, just moving really fast to every point in time and space where it's needed.


gergobergo69

I mean boxes can fly in HF1 if they don't fit in a space so


AshleyUncia

That makes no sense. You can literally be holding the first crowbar, while looking at the second one on a tablet in Blast Pit.


DoktoroChapelo

*Really really fast*


fredspipa

Well I'm convinced


alternatetwo

A speed mirage, if you will.


alvaro248

quatum crowbar


KicktrapAndShit

r/woosh


Leonyliz

I always thought it was the crowbar Barney used in Blue Shift


tin_sigma

probably the crowbar in blue shift


Car_assassin

I believe the same crowbar used at the end of Blue Shift, where there's a scientist using it to open the gate.


Th3Dark0ccult

Half-Life fans when joke...


DJ_R3Play

Wasn't there a game for Barney called Blue Shift? I think he might've been involved in some way with G-Man. Might be wrong, though, never finished the game.


Quartzalcoatl_Prime

No G-Man ending for Barney, he just escapes.


DJ_R3Play

Okay, that explains it. Although, maybe he just found a spare crowbar lying around.


JabroniBomb

one of the guys at the end of blueshift is using a crowbar so it could be that one


ShrekxFarquaad69

Finish blue shift it's really short!!!!


JabroniBomb

also one of my favourite hl games even though a lot of people don’t like it


ShrekxFarquaad69

I'm indifferent about honestly.


TheHammerdin

Why do people shit on it? I liked the fresh weapon skins, and characters


WELSH_BOI_99

I like to imagine its the same crowbar he used in Blue Shift


BubuAQ

I think it was his own crowbar during the Blue Shift?


KwatsanGx2

Let's call a scientific research facility and ask them how many crow bars they have in the building.


rgb86

Its A crowbar not THE crowbar I would guess .


Squidhijak75

Gman and Barney had sweaty s*x and gman accidentally left it at Barney's house... What's that? This isn't r/okaybuddyhalflife? Oops, anyways..


fredspipa

That's plausible, but were does Adrian Shephard (and his way more famous brother Mitchell Shephard) fit into all this?


CanIHaveThatBurger2

not my ass because its heavy right now


AAAUUUGGGGHHH

r/what


DumbTransFem

its r/okbuddyhalflife


Livid_Reindeer_4717

Barney gets a different crowbar in Blue Shift.


Gmodman298

It was up his ass


Spell_Whomstve

Probably just a different crowbar.


ilkikuinthadik

Barney working for Gman confirmed


EthoYeet

He didn't. There's more than one Crowbar you can find (especially if you play Black Mesa)


the_true_giga_chad

the crowbar the gman takes us probably not the same one Gordon started with Remember that Gordon gets jumped and de armed So likely the crowbar found in the trash compactor is not the same one as the one Gordon found earlier


secret_pupper

Still, there's no way Barney could have picked up the first one. Blue Shift ends right before Gordon gets tossed in the trash compactor, and Barney leaves Black Mesa immediately after seeing Gordon get dragged away. There's no way he could have had time to go pick it up.


the_true_giga_chad

Yes this is true but I was stating that the one the gman took is not the one Gordon started with But you do make a damn good argument


Ancient_Seesaw8970

He stopped by your mother's house


Relative-Ordinary685

My theory: It could be the crowbar from Blue Shift, since he probably kept it and 20 years later, he gave it to Gordon. The crowbar in the trash compactor part from the original Half-Life was the one taken by the G-Man. So it's unlikely to be the one in Unforeseen Consequences since the HECU took it, and the one in Blast Pit if the player skipped the first crowbar pickup just for the second crowbar pickup could have also been taken by the HECU.


Orangutanus_Maximus

It's... it's not the same crowbar. It's just a crowbar from Black Mesa. Barney has few of them.


Which-Obligation-434

Use your head for once idiot. There’s more than one red crowbar in the world.


Threski

It was on the HEV suit when G-man gave it to Kleiner. Unlike his other weapons, it wasn’t government property.


PYCapache

There are multiple crowbars in original Half-Life


markartman

Gman tossed it


Repulsive_turbine899

I think he dropped it at Black Mesa


Shameless_iFunnier

I kinda wish they kept the same crowbar up until ep 2, and have a big scene where it gets destroyed


bregulor

he was hiding inside his ass.


MeatballWasTaken

Peep the post someone made earlier where they forgot the crowbar pickup after apprehension so they went without it until lambda core


Caza390

Imagine meeting with a bunch of rebels, with the knowledge that you are a wanted man and instead of giving you a gun, they throw a crowbar at you


Lynforthewin2112

I mean, other crowbars do exist


EbbNovel5412

He one day just found it weeks before gordan arrived suddenly he felt the power of the freeman as he held it


lordofthegeckos

Because it wasn't Gordon's crowbar. He was joking about it. Also, Gordon used two different crowbars in HL1.


evanlee01

Gordon had 2 crowbars in Half-Life


sjmatiak

Barney and G-man same voice actor and the characters look very similar. Coincidence? I think not 🙂


EclipsedOsiris

Barney also had a crowbar in Blue Shift to perform maintenance duties. Since he escaped with it in hand, I always assumed that it was the same one carried by Gordon in HL2.


Jamduna

I've got two theories. Either Barney gave him his crowbar from Blue Shift, or if you want to believe its SPECIFICALLY Gordon's crowbar: When Gordon gets knocked out and gets thrown in the trash compactor he gets a 2ND crowbar. So I say at the end of Blue shift when Barney gets teleported to the vent where he's being dragged, he snagged it from Gordon's tight grip of the first crowbar.


Competitive_Bike7158

It’s obvious. Barney is g-man. Think bout it


X-tra-thicc

its not the actual crowbar, dont tell gordon he'll be distraught


thank_burdell

Hardware store, probably.


Swagabum

Because he can backflip


mrdounut101

Is it just me, or does he look like Alan wake lol


_Flamsey

Walter Bennet from BS probably went to the area Gordon gets apprehended in while Barney was in the coolage areas. Probably saw Gordon get taken down by the grunts and then picked up the crowbar. We see the crowbar again at the end of Blue Shift being used on the gate. The one at the end of Episode One is probably the one Barney used in Blue Shift


Electrical_Flower_26

There are multiple crowbars. Shepherds had one, Barney had one. Everyone gets a crowbar in Black Mesa.


Federal-Celery9090

1: it is not the same crowbar 2: G-Man dropped off the HEV suit to Kliener, so Gordan would not be immediately killed by the combine, if it is the same crowbar, the same most've been done with the Crowbar


moose_istaken

They definitely swapped gamer tags and he stole it so the G-man got revenge by making blue shift Terrible


HBenderMan

There’s more than 1 crowbar on earth


FuzzyPcklz

well why does doctor K have gordon's HEV suit if the G-man himself says "you've earned it"


The-friendly-plague

Barney is Gman, Bman


vegasq

Everything will be explained in game for augmented reality HalfLife: Barney


KolareTheKola

Gordon uses two crowbars, one before and one after Residue Processing, wich is when half life and blue shift storylines crosses, also the third crowbar is the blue shift one, Barney's


MiiShroomy

It’s me barney! Crowbar from Black Mesa!


lordshampoo

Side note which Barney from HL 1 is the one in HL2? The one we see banging on the door in the tram ride?


Jappathelamagames

Gman dropped it off somewhere ig


Fluffy-Solution1775

Right out of his asssss
