@avclub-df1e0236446701781694ff3350b618ec:disqus Don't even joke about that.

Further examples: Bran, Rickon, Davos, possibly the Clegane brothers.  GRRM really does enjoy going to that well.

@avclub-9157f95e30001c641c8c4d1adf84f6d1:disqus I still think the book's ending would be better. The visual of Bran, Rickon, Hodor, and Osha (sans the Reeds, apparently and unfortunately) leaving the smoking ruins of Winterfell would be a nice reveal and a parallel to Daenerys' hickory smoked ending last season.

The shot heard 'round the world.

As well as a swarm of gnats.

It's heavily hinted in "Power Play" that they were "intimate" one time, and is confirmed by Joss in the commentary. To misquote Doctor Who, a million fangirls just punched the air.

I wumbo. You wumbo. He, she, we wumbo.

Can white people be discriminated against? Certainly. Does this even come close to the amount of racism POC have faced and still face to this very day? Absolutely not. Wanting to see more diversity in a group does not mean that the people calling for it are somehow oppressing the white majority.

Oh, yay, the "reverse racism" argument. That never gets old or stops making sense.

Good Goddesses, Lemon.

Seriously? I thought Mockingjay was a definite improvement over Catching Fire, which focused a little too much on the love triangle and felt like a retread of familiar territory. The last few chapters are also perhaps the most daring ending to a YA book series I've read. J.K. Rowling, take note. Collins knows how to…

Nick Offerman is writing an upcoming episode(!), and he stated that he decided to make April especially nasty and mean, because that is apparently his favorite version of the character (Isn't it everyone's?).

And don't forget the male equivalent: If a girl loses interest in you, engage in a dangerous activity such as car racing. After your inevitable victory, she will find herself inexplicably attracted to you once more.

Worth it!
