Here’s my hot take - the books are not great. A Dance with Dragons was a fucking SLOG. I think a lot of stuff happened, but all I remember is Tyrion moping about his GODDAMN dead hooker wife for SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND PAGES. I’m pretty sure Ramsay Bolton happened in that book? And Arya was a blind assassin? That

He was never going to remain alive and happy at the end. I actually like how his arc ended; he atoned for all the shitty stuff he did as best he could, and then went back for one last, doomed attempt at saving Cersei and, by extension, Kings Landing.  I thought it was pretty true to what we know if his character.

Lest we forget, also a lovable yet racist (well... mostly racist) sitcom character.

She frequently acts like an Edward Gorey drawing, so that’s quite appropriate.

Maybe if buddy had, I dunno, murdered his family, an elaborate fake friendship long con specifically engineered not just to pay back the wrong but to make it HURT would be fine. You can get a perfectly serviceable Liam Neeson movie out of that scenario.

In this context, piracy is essentially theft. You’re receiving something (entertainment), which costs money to produce, and which other people pay money to support.

Ignore him.  He’s just a WPIG plant.

Peter Scolari could play Moranis, and the circle would be complete.

He’s cute!  Is he single?

Well now I’m just wondering what a donair poutine blizzard would taste like.

Spoiler Alert: it doesn’t matter who wins, you are not getting that money back.

...aaaaand now that song is going to be in my head for the rest of the afternoon.

In Rainbows, though. In Rainbows!

I would debate the point that “never saw Casper” = “fool”.

Aww, Captain Corelli’s Mandolin is the least punk novel ever written. You could have saved yourself about 1,500 words and ended with that. Not Punk.

You didn’t prebook your seats, and when the person next to you didn’t move, you stared at them like a creep for an entire flight.

Very similar in Newfoundland. You’ll get money back for any booze-related vessel (beer cans, wine bottles, etc) but nothing for for, say, a juice tetra pak or a milk carton.

I’ve done a couple half marathons and I’m dumb as fuck.  This was not a mistake anyone would make.

I hear you. I really do - I struggled with dysmorphia which blossomed into pretty severe bulimia in my late 20s/early 30s. I’m about 9 years out from the worst of it now, but it was a grim time (aside from the irregular heartbeat and the occasional fainting spells, bulimia kills the teeth and all that food is freakin’

I think it’s incredibly liberating to not care as much as I did when I was in my 20s and early 30s. I eat steak in restaurants! I get the 9 0z glass of wine! I’m much happier about my body then I was when I was younger and thinner and dumber.
