  1. If it's true, it is indeed gross. But I would need verification beyond just the word of his ex-wife. As I would if the situation was reversed.
  2. I don't think he can see the future, but still, asking him something once in awhile might be useful.
  3. I just can't with Arya anymore. She's turned into a little psychopath with no idea how to lead people. Sansa wasn't making the best decisions in this episode, but at least she understands that the Starks need their bannermen's men and the knights of the Vale if any of them are going to survive. Arya's notions on how to deal with dissent remind me of Robb's, and we all know what that got him.
  4. There'll be more later, but all I can say right now is: HOLY FUCKBALLS!!!!
  5. No way. She'd lop off heads in a minute without considering the actual consequences. Rather like Robb did, and he was probably the least politically astute Stark. Sansa is right about needing to keep the lords mollified. House Stark cannot possibly head off what's coming without the support of the Houses which owe them fealty. They also desperately need the men from the Vale as well, and keeping those men at Winterfell requires seeing that Lord Royce stays on their side.
  6. I think Whirlpool (or their ad agency) thinks You Are My Sunshine is a warm, fuzzy song, and reflects parental love for their children, and that's why they chose that song for their appliance commercials. They've obviously never listened to any of the lyrics except the chorus.
  7. I don't care whether or not you like the song. I just wanted to clarify that it's in French, not Italian.
  8. Oh, and the scene with Jon and Drogon? All I could think was "Don't eat me, Don't eat me. Hey, nice Drogon!" and "Yum, dinner, but he smells Targ-y. Ooh, pet me, pet me!". Drogon was not unlike my cats in that last respect. Well, poop, apparently the computer ate my other post, but it was basically: Damn, Sam, Gilly just dropped a major bombshell, and you missed it. Does Tyrion really think seeing a wight in the (rotting) flesh will make Cersei change her mind about anything - does he not know his sister? Does anyone else think Cersei is faking a pregnancy to keep Jaime closer to her and not let him move to Tyrion's side? I loved the scenes with Tormund, especially his asking if Jon had brought the big woman with him, and his obvious disappointment when Jon said no.
  9. Oh man, Sam! Gilly totally dropped a major bomb, and you missed it. Love the scenes with Tormund, especially him asking if Jon had brought the big woman with him, and his disappointment when Jon said no. But does Tyrion really believe that seeing a wight in the (rotting) flesh will make Cersei change one bit? Seriously? Like, don't you know your sister at all? Speaking of the evil bitch, who thinks the pregnancy is fake and just one more way of keeping Jaime closer to her?
  10. Are you talking about the one where the woman lives an entire life in one day? Because that's Edith Piaf singing "Non, je ne regrette rien" in French. Although you may be talking about a different commercial. This is just the only one I've seen recently.
  11. I thought it should've won the Oscar for Best Original Song that year.
  12. I don't find Leslie Jones funny. Maybe it's just how they write for her on SNL, although I've watched other allegedly hilarious videos posted on various entertainment sites, and, to me, they weren't hilarious.
  13. Gods of Egypt is so, so stupid in so, so many ways, but I've discovered, now that I have HBO, if it's on and I have nothing better to do, I'll watch it. Because apparently I cannot get enough half-naked Nicolaj Coster-Waldau. Who is obviously just in it for the paycheck in this crapfest.
  14. Then the answer, if the show actually gets made (not a word of a script has even been written yet) is to not watch it. CBS' biggest shows tend do well in the much-desired 18-49 demographic, so I'm not sure that it's accurate to say that CBS is about older people. The rest may very well be true, however.
  15. My mother had the talk with me - it was all kinds of embarrassing. Especially since I'd learned it all when I was 8 or 9 by reading a set of medical encyclopedias we had for some reason.
  16. Glen Campbell's music was such a part of my childhood that this makes me feel like a beloved family member has died. Watching all the various tributes yesterday and this morning, the thing which struck me most was, not only was he a self-taught musician, but he never learned to read music. And yet he was a highly sought after studio musician in the early sixties - he must've had one hell of an ear to learn other people's music so quickly and masterfully.
  17. It was a really good episode, and that scene was very touching. I'm actually glad (although that isn't the right word) that the show let the baby die, because in real life, a baby that premature would most likely die.
  18. I couldn't have quoted the whole speech, but I clearly remember the "chaos is a ladder" line.
  19. I find that one hilarious, myself. Plus, not everything needs rinsed, but the things that do (especially tomato-based food), really do.
  20. Clearly getting the gold to KL was the priority. Should've been getting the food there, but you know the Lannisters . . .
  21. Holy crap, that was terrific! I had chills when it ended. I did an awful lot of "No, not Bronn, but not Drogon either! And not Dany, but not Jaime!" Hell, I even felt sorry for random Lannister soldiers. And I'm sure Jaime's not dead. At least, he better not be, because he needs to be the one to kill Cersei. Yeah, I know, TV Jaime is nowhere near the person that Book Jaime was slowly on the path to starting to become, but he's still my favorite, and while I'm sure he'll die in the end, I want him to take that bitch out first. There are probably hundreds of innocent servants who work in and around the Red Keep. Torching it would kill them as well as Cersei and her minions.
  22. I don't remember the tiger, but I do remember a bit at the end where Santiago is dragging the mast of Santiago's sailboat up the beach because Santiago had become a Jesus metaphor.
  23. I sped through the first three seasons like the wind, but the first half of season 4 dragged for me. A lot of it is because of Regina, and the whole Anna and Gino storyline really let the season down as well. It did pick up in the last 4 or 5 episodes, although I'd started fast-forwarding through any scene Regina had with Sgt. Taylor. Yeah, after how nice Anna was to her, and how forgiving Olivia was after she kidnapped baby Georgie, for her to fall so easily for Regina's bullshit meant, for me, that she was either almost as bad as Regina or she was mentally defective. Either way, good riddance. And to Gino as well. Anna, you deserve better. Oh, and I have to add: I hated the way Jack and Caroline's lovely wedding, which I'd been greatly anticipating, was intercut with Regina and Taylor having sex. Really?!?!? UGH!
