When Annie said, "Chang, did you just tie that knot?" I thought his deception was going to get exposed, as in "You don't know anything, how would you know how to tie a knot"

Oh I've been checking in now and again. Just haven't been digging season 4 as much and I always hated the quick turnaround of comments on weekly articles. Didn't feel I had much of relevance to say.

Robb and the Blackfish should have told Edmure about their plan, or made sure to insist on him not doing anything at…

Let's face it, Ray Stevenson needs to play Victarion Greyjoy.

well, there's Brandon and there's Brynden (as in Tully and Rivers). Ngl, the Andrew/Ondrew/Endrew thing drives me nuts too
