I'm a bi male and was also surprised by how not-complaining-about-it I was, considering how much I totally just associate Iwan Rheon with his character who completely squicks me out.

Yep, I'm with you. Not to mention that good ol' totally-non-trolly phrase "offends your delicate sensibilities", that is used so often on the Internet to instantly dismiss anyone's objections about anything.

In the books they definitely had their dicks and balls cut off. Not sure if they ever elaborated that far in the show.

Looking at the above Myst screenshot…wow. I didn't realize the graphics were THAT shitty. I realize it was 1993, but I always remember it as looking more impressive than it did. Granted, the sequels much more stunning visually. Riven and especially Myst III were BEAUTIFUL. It's a shock to be reminded of how…

Arya's victims aren't really undeserving, though, that's the thing. She kills assholes, and we cheer to see that.

No, it is not an "end of article". Kind of the whole point of the story is that all these different people can make a reasonable claim to be the "rightful" heir to the throne, from a different point of view. I think that's kind of what all the fighting's about. To name just one obvious example, if you consider that…

That's honestly how I want the series to end. Arya climbing over a throne room littered with bloodied bodies, hair and clothes in tatters, Needle in hand, and calmly sitting on the throne, to rule over a kingdom of tumbleweeds. Even better if one of Dany's dragons goes out in a blaze of glory helping her take it.

Exactly. If you are 18-20, lusting after an 18-year-old is acceptable. Once you're old enough to drink, it's questionable. If you're 25+, it's downright creepy.

Renly didn't fare too well either, though…

Glad someone else said it. I get that she's "legal" now, but she was a child when the show began. If you're a grown man, and not, say, in your teens or early 20s at most, I think it's creepy for your mind to even be going there. She's BARELY an adult. I'm 33 and not a big fan of guys who lust after women MUCH younger…

Whining about "spoilers" (no such thing in my opinion, which is why it's in quotes) is the epitome of a 2010s first-world problem. You did nothing wrong, ignore the namby-pamby babies.

I'm still pissed about Barristan. He has a whole badass duel scene later in the books! What are they going to do, replace him in that scene with that putz Jorah Mormont? Fuck.

They spelled "Arya" wrong.

My take on the OJ verdict is that it was a case of jury nullification. The jurors knew OJ was guilty, and decided to let him off anyway because of the LAPD's long and storied history of corruption and racism.

I'm totally calling him that from now on.

Barristan had a whole other badass fight scene later in the books. Why the FUCK would they take him out now? Is someone else going to replace him in that scene?

I'm a Nirvana fan. I'm excited to see this movie, but this "album" is scraping the bottom of the barrel. Like the book of his private journals that Courtney published. Let him be.

One accusation is suspect. 40? Not bloody likely.

"Police apprehended Bill Cosby after finding a bag of rape in the glove compartment of his car after a routine traffic stop."

At this point, my grandmother could say tomorrow that she was raped by Bill Cosby and I'd probably believe her.
Even though she's dead.
ESPECIALLY because she's dead.
When the dead speak, you damn well listen.
