And Bernie Sanders is good at promising a lot of bullshit that will never ever happen or be supported by more than half of the country. Look, I can reduce your cult leader down to a facile interpretation too!

Oh neat you guys have moved on to conspiracy shit now that you've lost. Gonna be great for the progressive movement. Grow up.

There's a lot you don't understand about Jon Stewart.

It's really going to help the left to cannibalize its members for not being the Platonic ideal of the liberal.

Oh fuck off dude

You realize that's tongue in cheek? It's for us to laugh at ourselves. You don't get it.

Thanks for the math lesson! You don't get it!

Wright Thompson was insufferable in this. He apparently got a lot more unsympathetic and contrarian in the time since writing that article. And apparently he talks like he's constantly writing one of his pieces of wankery.

David Modell can fuck off and die, and burn with his old man.

But it wasn't real life you dummy, it was a tv show, which totally excuses there being absolutely no conflict other than that generated by unfunny, over the top villain characters.

Two hwhat?

Although I agree that having most of the Karstarks be murderous assholes in the later books and retroactively justifying Robb's execution of the patriarch even more is kind of lame.

Oh yeah he's definitely still a creepy fuck in the books, I just find the fanart phenomenon with that character (most of it having been made after his role in the Red Wedding was well known, and proliferating from there) amusing.

Tbf, the book version of Roose is never actually described as the sexy vampire he's become in all the fanart (he's never even mentioned as having long hair). He's just kind of a pudgier, paler version of what we got on the show.

"Ramsay was just summoning them for a cup of tea!"

I guess I meant banality in terms of the casting of a conventionally hot guy they could have cast as Robb/Jon/etc. instead of the disgusting, obviously evil monster he is in the books.

The show definitely buys into the whole "banality of evil" concept with its villains (in terms of their appearance) a lot more than the books, obviously since they have to cast real human beings.

I think even Ramsay was unnerved a little bit at killing someone so fundamentally decent (or innocent, in the baby's case). I think they were saying something by having her be willing to let him hold the baby after his big monologue last week had to do with someone not being afraid of him.

Man that Dreamgirls Renaissance lasted about 2 seconds, huh?
