Well that's good to hear at least. I might not like all the changes the TV series makes, but I do love it, and hope that everyone else does too, so they keep making it.

The Dany storyline this season positively infuriates me. They could have just had them wander up to the gates of Quarth, be told they have to visit the warlocks (just 'cause), and BAM, you've led straight into the spaced out and action packed parts of her story for the entire book. Instead they've had all the long…

The first season I felt they improved on almost everything about the books. The action was there, the characters were true to their representations, and they cut down on George R.R. Martin's long-windedness.

Sure it is a cut and dry loss of jobs. At the absolute base level we've got from utilizing an available resource (the unappealing extra bits of meat left over after slaughtering beef for the prime cuts), to throwing it out.

That's the thing, Orb Weavers aren't actually dangerous to humans. Even if a big one did bite you, they only hurt like a bee-sting.

Cradle Mountain! You're making me homesick man!

Oh my god, totally hearted for that. I just laughed way too loud in the office.

I go the other way, I'm an Aussie too, living overseas now, and this kind of thing never fails to amuse me.

I thought there was something weird about this article (other than the obvious batshit craziness of the person involved), and then I realised this was an article about Bachmann, and I've been regularly conflating Bachmann and Palin into "That crazy racist GOP lady" whenever I read about what nutty thing they're doing…

I, also, had no idea of any racist history of the term. I've heard it used many times, and always in the context of "call something what it is - don't dance around the point".

You just get desensitized to giant killer insects when you're young and foolish.

The NK's prefer Euros as their international currency of choice. The stores in Pyongyang that cater to the few tourists they allow on tours accept only Euros.

Spidey. The last set of spidey films weren't that long ago (and they weren't so great, nor so bad they need redoing). It's too soon for a reboot already.

Much appreciated. That was a much clearer explanation than the article.

I kind of disagree here. I have a Shun 8" Chef's knife, and while it's wonderful (and also truly beautiful), it's somewhat overkill for the average person.

As a permanent resident, you generally pass on your nationality to your children. If both countries allow dual citizenship then the children automatically get both nationalities.

Agreed, they're not a threat. All their warmongering rhetoric is solely to allow them to present the outside world as a dangerous and threatening place (even if the NK's need to provoke them into it in the first place). If the outside world is portrayed as dark and threatening then they can justify their continued…

This rocket has nothing to do with a military advantage over SK, seeing as it has no tactical purpose relating to SK. You don't need a long range rocket to hit anything in SK, seeing as the entire country is only 400Km's long and Seoul, which has half the population of the entire country and most of the industry, is…

They can already hit both of those places.

Please, please, please, tell me you're not serious...
