I wanna see evil!nerd!Thor!

Much better than the last one which was kinda eh. I am HYPED!

We’re tragically quite good at it.

What annoys me is a lot of progressives instead of saying “we’ll know for next time!” are instead just throwing tantrums and being all “the entire system is worthless because I didn’t get everything I wanted burn it down!!!!”

Exactly. Almost no one disagrees with the idea that okay, this con is not paying cosplayers. The issue is he got very assholish about it instead of just staying professional. PR is not the place for snark and insults.

Exactly. Just a “we’ve been getting a lot of inquiries about this so let me post some FAQ about our con” and keep it simple. Then you’re done.

What gets the biggest giggle out of me is the idea he could build an accurate replica of even one of the towers for only 1.5 million.

To be fair, that is kinda the point of Daario. He’s a male Shae, the heroine is in love with him even though it’s a bad idea, it undermines her position, and in all ways is just her lusty side getting the better of her.

Tyrion is a good exaple of why Dany attempting to rule Mereen as she intends to rule in Westeros will not work. They are totally different political systems and cultures. In the books, it’s Dany doing a lot of what Tyrion is doing here (guessing they split the plot between two people for time, again, the Mereen of the…

WHILE ignoring that a bunch of other kids who don’t drink are somehow capable of doing so without being asshats and thinks they’re weak in their convictions for not badgering people like him.

Yeah, my uncle and I both wanted to go and Dad went just for the spectacle. It was in 5 hotels plus a separate building for dealers so it was nuts (I’ll adit, it did make me more sure of not liking huge cons).

I remember when my local theater got 1776. It was pretty good for such a small stage.

I dragged my dad to a showing of the animated version with live director commentary at Dragon Con. Good bonding moment.

Have we officially hit Racism Level: Trying Too Hard yet?

Writing speed can be a funny thing. I have a massive (at about 125k words) humor-based Naruto crackfic I’ve barely touched in two years despite generally knowing where it’s going, and yet I’ve turned out over 100k words of a One Piece AU just since early December. I can write 5k words in one sitting or struggle to…

I kinda thought it would happen all along, like leave out some subplots, even important ones, to make sure book readers got to read the books since there was no way they’d all be out before the show ended. I think the general ending will be the same (who’s on the throne at the end if anyone, Stark headcount, major…

Well, I left my books at home (grad school across the country) so I use various internet recaps and TvTropes. The Tvtropes pages for the books in particular are HUGELY detailed, I think some of the more obsessive fans got to them. Also wikis.

That was a bet of mine back in season 3 when I started noticing little things they were changing that later became big (like Gendry pulling double duty as a composite character, the changes to the Tyrells). I even wondered what they were going to do with Jene Pool being written out (didn’t like the rape scene but I…

It’s quite easy to mix them and the show up in your head if you’re not being careful, too.

And Darkstar. Fucking Darkstar. I knew he was getting left out from day 1. No way, no how they were going to be that dumb.
