Sorry, just laughing at the idea of anyone in these comments having done this in high school.

There’s a joke about how a Phillies game was cancelled so the fans all went to the airport to boo landings.

Ain’t no party like a nerd rage party because a nerd rage party has to end at 9 because that’s when my mom gets back from bingo and we can’t be loud anymore 

I forgot to link that description until your comment, so it’s on me! But I will say there’s a difference between explaining a complex concept to the public in a memorable, funny way, and not adhering to an agreed-upon definition in a published study. I think Hall threaded the needle just fine myself. 

No nerd fan fiction like angry nerd fanfiction.

All this kerfuffle is making my fanfic, Game Of Thrones Goes Bananas, all of a sudden seem like it might take off :D

This fan-written version will surely feature the new character Derek from the Kingdom of Suburban Cleveland who’ll use his sword, Foekiller The Awesome, to kill the 5,000 wights, the Night King, and Cersei, and will end up on the Iron Throne, and will have a giant dick and that’ll show that prissy diva MacKenzie what…

I wrote my fanfic version, but only when it was complete did I realize that it was three novels about a mousy girl in a bad relationship with a bondage billionaire, and millions of aunts were masturbating to it.

Sushi doesn’t go with crackers.

My reference for dragon physiology, as you pointed out, is Anne McCaffrey’s dragons of Pern. They eat firestone in order to burn the invasive thread. Pern dragons are more grounded in that they aren’t mythical dragons but rather GMO aliens that look like dragons.

Of all the issues with the closing of various storylines, Jamie and Cersei’s ending has got be the least problematic. People try to leave toxic relationships but often fail to; deaths are rarely as clean or poetic as we hope. I thought them dying together, albeit fairly pathetically like anyone could, made as much…

Jamie spent 90% of the series as someone else’s prisoner, and he died trapped in a cage... in a dungeon. Trapped in a foretold destiny, enslaved like a Stark to what they think is their own version of honor (lost, regained). I think he has one of the most tragic stories of the entire series... he lost everything and…

Lost in all the feuding over the last episode, the final scene between Jaime and Tyrion was GoT at its best. That is what a powerful scene feels like when it’s been earned.

Oh God, fuck this. I have my misgivings about it too, but I am so done with entitled dipshit fans like these.

The discussion over Scooby-Doo ended in the determination that Scooby is not the sidekick so much as Shaggy is, but really, it’s an ensemble effort. 

This is Scooby Doo erasure.
