@avclub-570170146218082d2ca2544d57a48f1e:disqus yes… London, Germany

the fundamentalists aren't the jesus nerds, though, they're like… jesus red sox fans

it's a lannister song that's used to signal the start of the slaughter that kills robb stark/his mom/his army(/his doggy =( ), because tywin lannister gives it his approval

yea, right after dark towers done

"Sixty thousand years ago we had a catastrophic flood (as factually related by Genesis) and what we have left is the remains of a mammoth herd (quickly placed there by Satan minutes afterward to test our faith) herda hadda herda YEEEEEEEEE HAW"
Let's not take our eyes off the prize, a few purty songs don't mean…
