The Boltons get their comeuppance from Jon Snow who was in the trailer riding into the Bolton shield wall.

Jon gets resurrected but then dies a second time at the (shield) wall. Well played, D&D.

Those REM lyrics cracked me up

Let's try some Radiohead.

When you were here before
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like a statutory rape law
Your demands make me cry
You float like an advance check
In a beautiful dream
I wish I was skinny
You're so loving skinny

But I'm a creepy, fat weirdo
Why the hell don't I write anymore?
I don't care anymore

I don't care if it hurts
I want to have bowel control
I want more Wild Cards

I want more fans who are 'tards
I don't want you to notice
When I don't publish a book
You're so loving skinny
I wish I was skinny

But I'm a creepy, fat weirdo
Why the hell don't I write anymore?
I don't care anymore

Oh, oh

They're watching the show instead
They're watching
They watch watch watch watch
Watch

Nothing makes me happy
Because I'm sick fat oval office
You're so loving skinny
I wish I was skinny

But I'm a creepy, fat weirdo
Why the hell don't I write anymore?
I don't care anymore
I don't care anymore

Two books in a decade
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Sitting on your toilet
Watching the only thing you accomplished today drop
You'd kill yourself for motivation
Kill yourself to ever make the criticism stop
You broke another chair
You're turning into just an editor of Wild Cards, you fat lump of snot

Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry
Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry

Drying up in every convention,
You will be the one who cannot write
All your insides fall to pieces
You just sit there wishing you could still rub one out
All your fans will hate you
When you think you've got the plot 20% figured out
All your fans will spit at you
You will be the one watching the show finish it out

Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry
Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry

It's the best thing that you ever had,
The best thing that you ever, ever had
It's the best thing that you ever had,
The best thing you ever had has gone away

Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry
Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry
Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry
Don't leave us high, don't leave us dry

not every discussion is an argument, relax.

e: and once again, my thought was less about it being practical or even useful or becoming damaged and more about his priceless family artifact being lost to his family forever because he died on a battlefield with it.

I would imagine such a thing to be considered more as a priceless valuablable instead of just a really good useful sword.

anyway, im in the clear minority so whatever, im cool with it.

Did the neighborhood bully break his priceless ancestral rock over your head in a schoolyard fight? It would explain a lot about your position.

I really disliked the accusative tone of Ned's "why weren't you there to protect your prince" line, that line could work if he would have asked with more genuine curiosity and some compassion.

That's really what makes the show version worse for me, the lines are not quite as cool but generally the show seems to avoid grrm's dialogue affectations, in the show people just generally speak like modern human beings while grrm sometimes switches to this pseudo-archaic vocabulary.

I wsih the show was using sweet lines like this from the books:

"Ser Alliser Thorne walked from the room so stiffly it looked as though he had a dagger in his arse"

It's been years since her first nude scene, but I'd recognize those weirdly proportioned hips on that warped hourglass anywhere.

You are all forgetting that Tyrion is GURMs Mary Sue, and he has told HBO what the major character arcs are. I don't think any other POV "hero" will be allowed to put him in his place

GRRM fantasizes about being a gross, short, misshapen freak? Well, OK, it would be a big step up in sexual appeal.

I just started reading this series, starting with the first one, The Game of Thrones. I'm 40 pages in, and half that has been talking about who's gonna plow a thirteen year old girl.

I thought there was going to be dragons.

That's in the last 40 pages of the series. Check back in five years when the novelization of the show is published.

It really is exceptional looking back that pretty much every awful thing that has happened in the north could have been prevented if the Starks just stayed home at the start of the series.

Stark intervention is a parable of the Iraq war.

Not sure who the real victim is here:

He can do that because he's not old, grossly fat, and doing a complex series in a made up world. I doubt HBO would have green lit this without being able to offer some certainty to existing fans. They didn't know it would succeed enough to allow such vapid poo poo to be passed off.
