Hey gang, should I watch this one? I've never seen an episode in full, though I'm open to being a convert. I've seen enough bits and pieces to know the gist, but I don't think I've ever seen the show at its best.

I said most of the people to blame are Lannisters. Littlefinger is grand puppetmaster, for sure. But the Lannisters are the ones who wanted war and dominion in the first place, so even without LF's meddling, Tywin's hunger for dynasty and Cersei's dumb rage almost certainly would have at some point butted heads with…

"No, little bird, I won't hurt— David and Dan, do I really have to call her 'little'? I feel like that's just going to make everyone laugh. Can I at least have a box to stand on when we're in the same shot?"
"Just hit your marks, Rory."
"Yarp."

Again, cruel to pin it on Ned for being a shitty player, when it should be blamed on the people who played him. A little victim-blamey, if you ask me.

"Fully grown Sansa Stark", of course, meaning when Sophie has finished growing and settles on her final form at 10,000 feet tall.

Sansa-wise, I won't be truly happy she's on that pointy throne at the end of the series. Sure, it's likely to be Danaerys's (I wonder if melted swords are more or less comfortable than dragon-back) or Jon's zombie ass on that "Lysa Arryn of chairs", but it should be Sansa. Every trial she's gone through has been…

There are so many people to blame for the conflict, and most of their surnames are Lannister — and yet Stark women (specifically Sansa and Catelyn) get stuck with the blame time after time. I've never bought it.

I struggle to think of a show that wouldn't be improved by the addition of Neal McDonough.

Meh, the woods are otherwise unoccupied, and we know that life-form scanning tech exists. Wouldn't have been implausible or even difficult for Hux to pop to an emergency escape ship, snatch up a wounded Ren, and escape the blast radius.

As the base is starting to collapse, Hux is told by Snoke to collect Kylo and bring him to Snoke to finish his training.

It's also not Vader's real hand, so who cares if he burns the metal plate where his palm would be.

AoS has a colour palette?

You're demanding I give you an answer to a question that you LIKE, when I've already answered it. "I still want to know, what is 3+4? And please, don't give me that '7' nonsense."

"Again, your entire premise falls down because this is eminently unproveable."

What did he do? I gather from context that he was trying to doxx someone?

If nobody was hurt, and people thought it was a successful anti-racism piece of art, he did nothing wrong. Even IF he wanted to secretly get off on the sneaky transgression of using the N-word (a premise with absolutely zero evidence for, and a mountain of evidence to the contrary), it still did some good, and there's…

None of that is what I was looking for. The forum discussion briefly touches on whether the song was racist (someone called Nubbins has a bit of a response to this, but doesn't really get into the use of the N-word) and the tweet is from what appears to be a white guy remarking on the fact that Newman uses the word.…

Can you quote or link me to any criticism from people of colour of Newman's work — positive or negative? From critics or randoms on twitter or anything. I'd really like to see what kind of perspectives are out there from the people who could be hurt by his use of the word, and, anecdotally, I've only ever heard…

Keep in mind, Lego owns the rights to the Lego versions of their characters. They can have Batman and Barry Allen fuck and Gandalf kill a Ninja Turtle, if they want.
