One of those people complains to their States Attorney office, said office spends 15 minutes investigating this man, his history, and this nonsense, then files charges first thing in the morning. The money, what’s left of it (it’s already being spent on pickup trucks and trashy home decor as I type) either gets…

Most medieval armies were conscripted peasants armed with farm tools or crude weapons. Knights as we know them now with plate armor and such didn’t show up until fairly late in the period.

Ehh...most of Europe was illiterate because it was dirt poor and had no system of education. Byzantium (the east half of the Roman Empire which survived to the late medieval period) was fairly literate for the time and was still a monarchy. In no small part because it was the only nation rich enough and old enough to…

Bron doesn’t hate the throne. He seems to view it as a natural outgrowth of the brutal world he lives in. The guy with the most money and the most paid goons gets to call himself king. He hates the pretensions of nobility. In they end, they’re all like Bronn (using violence to get/stay rich), but they refuse to admit…

Bringing the second sons over means surrendering her people to the slavers or anarchy. She wants that throne, but she isn't ready to condemn her people to that.

Euron is a magically awesome badguy, clearly. A magical little pirate dude.

Because you don’t want a berserk dragon and a headless army of trained foreign soldiers wandering the seven kingdoms. That’s a different, and worse, kind of problem than waiting a week or 3 and beating them in your backyard. You also look like a shitbag and might turn Dany into a martyr. Then you have a wandering…

There were Dothraki retreating with Jorah. They didn’t really show how many, but apparently something approaching half of the horde is left if you go by the map scene this week. Same with the unsullied, but we don’t know how many survived the Dragonstone ambush.

I’m stuck on how the other guy emphasizes the “use” in “do not use it”

You’re telling me Trump FDA didn’t ban implants? Shocking.

I wouldn’t quite call catapults and trebuchets “artillery” in the modern sense of the term. As you point out they’re siege engines, good at knocking down walls over the course of days or weeks. They don’t fire fast enough to really do much to standing army except sow chaos. You can’t sow chaos in an undead army, so…

The battle, overall, makes complete sense.

Jesus christ, people, she *just* handed Trump his ass during the shutdown. And now she’s over? Do you have the memory of a manic dog? Progress, and retrenchment for that matter, take place over DECADES. Have some goddamn context. Don’t change what you want. Understand history.

Nah, son. I heard what you said. I then called it stupid and pointless. Taking your argument, crumpling it up, and tossing it in the trash isn’t the same as not acknowledging receipt of it.

You’re probably tired of that argument because your point is so poorly articulated and full of obvious holes that everyone is assuming an ulterior (and petty) motive.

You’ll just have to waste your work hours here at Gizmodo, like you’re already doing Mr. 2:48PM on a weekday.

Making the game easier would just allow players to beat the same game I brag about beating diminishing my specialness.

I’m still leaning towards “he was always this stupid, but the unrelenting exposure of the presidency combined with his 8hrs/day consumption of TV news has just made it more obvious”.

Star Citizen?

1) “Shaming” has one “m”. “Shamming”, I imagine, is the shorthand for using a shammy to wax a car. I say “I imagine” because that word doesn’t actually exist and I’m using that as a hypothetical to mock you for trying to lecture me while misspelling a word I typed correctly the first time in a post you could clearly…
