Popov isn’t a territory in Risk.

This all sounds horrific and dysfunctional and not even remotely something I was there for myself.

Au contraire. Getting booted out after an hour means you get those next two hours of your life back where you, the lucky one, don’t have to play fucking Risk.

I think it says a lot about the state of the country that up until the end of the article I was unsure if the people holding the sign were denouncing or advocating for racism.

Calling them the only good twitter account is just a slap in the face to the only other good twitter account, @dogrates.

Amen. It is almost incomprehensible to me how passionately I followed the Jets only a few years ago—how excited I was about those two runs to the AFC championship game, how frustrating but par for the course the subsequent collapse was. Now I just don’t give a damn. I never watch and don’t miss it at all.

That is the ultimate age 28 opinion. In about three years you’ll be shrugging and saying “I’m too old for my tastes to count anymore.”

There’s actually tons of evidence that Brady had his footballs deflated, from video to text messages. The thing there was a) who cares if he wanted that, b) if you do care about it, it’s because games have to make sure people don’t cheat lest it harm peoples belief that it’s actually a real competition and c)…

Yeah, I know. I realized that very shortly after writing my spiel, and by that point it was too late to edit the comment. Fucking kinja.

No. Where he was born is irrelevant to the naming convention. It’s all where your family is from. He was Snow despite being born in the south when he was supposedly Ned’s kid. If his parents were both known but not married, he’d be either Snow or Waters. I THINK he’d be one or the other based on which family took him…

I agree with everything you’re saying. His mother wasn’t known, so he was a bastard of the area of his lorded “father”—thus Snow. If his mother WAS known (and his father not), though, it should still be Snow, because it has nothing to do with where the kid is born. If the real father was known and not the mother (or…

Gendry’s high parentage is a secret, so he does not have a last name. Only those bastard children who have known high parentage have the special last names. Small folk don’t have last names of any kind.

The news of this week doesn’t contradict what was said before.

I mentioned this elsewhere: Targaryen bastards should have the last name Waters (which is the name for bastards of the Crownlands—the area around Kings Landing).

The show got it wrong. You’re a bastard of the place your known parent was an lord in (not necessarily THE lord of a place—just a member of a lorded family). If both parents were lords, I believe father takes precedence over mother. Jon’s mother was a northerner, so he’s still a Snow. If they had known his father but…

I am hopeful that by the time we get to next season, the transition to Kinja will have been fully completed.

More like Captain Oblivious, amirite?!

It’s gonna be weird commenting here with my kinja name after all this time as Milkman on AV Club.

Sources also say that a large number of hit movies and TV shows are secretly funded by conservative media giant New Corporation and its CEO Rupert Murdoch.
