If by "unconventional" and "exotic mystical", you mean looking like a carnivorous antelope then yes!

Aslaug looks like what happens if you described Jessica Beal and Christy Turlington to a blind Grey alien who had poor spatial reasoning.
Lagertha kick her ass in season 2, please.

Dude, the whole point was that a person is allowed to be less effusive and demonstrative in their enjoyment of life than others. Why should I feel shamed and defective if I don't want to be involved in witnessing a bunch of exhibitionists cavorting around? These are the same people who always insist on being accepted

Templeton is a flammable douche-king, and McNutty's spiral is the pathetic last gasp of a hollow man who has been enabled for far too long beyond any justifiable talent or ability

Macchiato, not "macchiatto".

Meereen will be next season, and the season after that, and the season after that…JUST LIKE THE BOOKS.

The Mongol warriors were more like badass snipers with their bows than your English longbowmen (but perhaps I am personally biased), They were specifically trained to be extremely proficient at landing individual targets, as per their battle tactics. I also believe the composite bows they used outranged the longbow

Like House Gardener is so much cooler (founded by the Landscaper King, Lord over all Herbaceous Borders!). Or House Wull, sigil THREE BUCKETS. Three f-ing brown buckets on a field of blue. What are their words? "Thrice the nightsoil, triple the fun"? "Ours is the poo"?

Brynden "The Blackfish" Tully bears a striking resemblance to a Nicholas Cage who has turned to drink after being disappointed in life.

Fun fact: In Korean, sitting "Indian-style" is translated as sitting in the "desk-leg" fashion.

Does the retarded horse from "The Eyes" count as a freaky-ass deer, or are you just thinking of the licky abductor from that one where Finn breaks his legs?

Flame Princess is awful. The show's writers need to understand that "changeable" is not a personality. All she ever does is exist, being generically nice and then suddenly burning things and sulking off in a destructive shit-fit. How did anyone manage to make FIRE so lumping bland and monotonous??

I still think a lot of Finn and Jake's behavior encapsulates the random cruelty that kids show to one another because they are incapable of fully empathizing with someone, not by "putting themselves in anothers' shoes", but being able to set their selves aside and fully consider another individual's life and feelings.

The baby was disgusting. Oversized, orange, with fat, slappy baby tits and a protuberance we are supposed to understand is an outie navel, and a deformed flap-hand.

I like that Jake and FInn sometimes act like pretty typical children, in the way that they can be completely devoid of empathy and lack the ability to comprehend pain that doesn't directly affect them. Sure, they call themselves heroes, but heroes driven primarily by a self-aggrandizing need to do the "right" thing

Because it's the show's MYTHOLOGYYYyyy!!! It HUMANIZES them! It makes them more relatable to me by giving all the characters motivations comparable to a JRPG antagonist's origin! "Through the power of love and friendship!" Ugh.

Those are my homeboys! My homeboys! My homeboys!

It's Tobias Menzies. And "Titus", as in "Titus Pullo".

How the fuck does anyone "hone up"? Or did you mean "own up"?

To cut off her peripheral vision, thus enabling her passive invitation to suicide by zombie. I don't want to live on this planet anymore, she says. But fuck if I'm going to attempt autodecapitation.
