Little known fact: “Schnatter” is an obscure German word describing the specific glutinous diarrhea one gets from eating cheap pizza made from sub-par ingredients.

I agree- it’s a cool name. “The Weeknd?” maybe I’m just too old, but that just sounds idiotic.
I can’t imagine; one large tree falls onto the road and you’re likely a goner.
I’m an immigration lawyer. Never got called a ‘race traitor’ for that until I moved from Michigan to Indiana. Amazing what a few hours’ drive can bring. I bought some land in the country for hunting (!!!). When I’m in the nearby small town with my Asian wife and/or my kids, I often get looks on a sliding scale from…
Having grown up in a suburb where the largest population of Middle Easterners in the US live bordering Detroit, in my experience, it’s very likely that those guys are racist. Most of the convenience stores and gas stations in the Detroit area are staffed by Middle Easterners, and I’ve seen Arabs behind bullet proof…
I’ll agree with you on splitting that hair.
I’m not religious, and I agree that especially people who become rich and powerful from leadership positions in religion are generally shit, but I’ve met far too many people of different faiths for whom their beliefs provide a framework for living better lives.
Maybe someone’s already addressed this: “You don’t talk black! / You’re so well-spoken!” Puke.
I think it’s been well established that in Westeros (and moreso in Esteros), human lives are disposable and not especially valuable.
Cersei’s already proven herself to be like ISIS- blowing up the Great Sept, for example.
I was kind of thinking the same thing- that his mom’s ex isn’t necessarily his biological father, and the circumstances related to his conception may be precisely why he’s her ex.
I’m a white, middle-aged guy living in the Midwest. I have some land out in the country, and often drive my beat-up pick up truck to haul stuff there. When I’m at the ‘seed and feed’ in a camouflage baseball cap, no one knows that I’m a big-city liberal, and I’ve heard all kinds of openly racist shit since Trump got…
I thought the exact same thing about the relationship between “Do you know who I am?” and wine bottles to the head.
Just had a flashback: visiting relatives in rural Pennsylvania and sitting there bored as shit as my cousin and some uncles watched a golf tournament. It was Tiger Woods’ first main event. They were all commenting on what a great golfer he was, how skilled, etc. , and then Tiger’s caddy handed him a banana and my…
My siblings and I listened to his comedy albums (vinyl records) over and over again as kids in the ‘60s and ‘70s. Judging on the reaction of my estranged racist father whenever we watched ‘black’ TV shows, etc. , I can understand why older folks just assume this is all an attack on him because of his race.
My armchair expert understanding of sociopathic behavior is exactly what you describe- for example, he knew intellectually that a certain of women should be promoted in order to give him higher standing in the community, whereas real women weren’t treated as humans, but things for him to manipulate for his pleasure.
We all knew that kid in elementary school who would provoke shit and then hide behind the teacher.
Not to mention why such disparate humanoid cultures have such similar design aesthetics- where’s the “Star Trek” equivalent of low riders, Jeepneys, etc. ?
I’ll see if I can find it. The upshot is that he’s so charming people generally forgive him for being such an annoying (and frankly, talentless) self-promoter.
