    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Well yes, she definitely did it alone out of spite. Kind of a condensed version of what happened in the books with Arianne and the Darkstar and company. Doran wants his revenge war as well, but he just wasn't moving fast enough for the hot-tempered ladies and they end up taking shit into their...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    They were essentially trying to force a war with the Iron Throne - Dorne's army is fresh and untouched, while the Lannisters have jack and shit and at this point are propped up by the Tyrells. From a strategic standpoint, if you want war, there isn't much of a better time to start one, and...

    Star Wars: The Force Awakens (2015)

    It certainly makes sense for him to show up as a force ghost; he showed up to shoot the shit with Yoda while Yoda was training Luke, so it would not be surprising to see him show up to do the same with Luke while he trains Rey.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    Damn man, you are right. Did Robb send the letter in the show? I don't remember off the top of my head. I forgot about that letter but now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense and is really the only legitimate way it can be done. Add that to the fact that the letter's recipient...

    XCOM 2

    There is an ability you can buy in the GTS that makes it way more likely for a soldier to bleed out than to die outright (stay with me, unlocks when you get someone to major); after I got it, I didn't have a single one die outright even if they got massively smashed. Though I got it very late...

    XCOM 2

    Well yep, this would be perhaps the best thing to ever happen. After having a fairly easy time on normal, I kicked into a Commander/Ironman campaign. First mission, I somehow missed a revealed square and fucked up the very first ambush - an omen of things to come. Second mission, VIP...

    NFL 2016 Offseason Thread - Fins' Quest to Defend Their Crown

    My takeaway from that is, what kind of a shitty ass posse does he run with, that even lets him get into that. I mean shit, he is your meal ticket, he is the only reason you are drinking that fancy stuff in the first place, he is the reason you were even allowed in the door. If I am in that...

    My greatest TO memory is him showing up for the Eagles in the Super Bowl just two weeks after breaking his leg or whatever and having a great game. Would have won if McNabb hadn't choked, goddamn McNabb. So good for so long and then shits the bed in his biggest moment. TO was a monster, and...

    Oregon Fire Chief finds evidence of FBI plants in Oregon standoff

    That video, it looks like old boy gets out of the van hands up, comes around the back, and as soon as he sees the officer with a gun on him, he starts reaching and gets capped. You definitely don't want to do a reach like that when riled up Johnny Law is aiming a weapon at you.

    Star Wars : Rogue One

    I would love to see Vader just demolishing hordes of rebels. As mentioned, for one of the most iconic villains in cinema history, you never really get to see him do anything. Showing why everyone was scared shitless of him would be awesome if it was done right.

    Weather

    The storm shifted north a bit and is going to stall out a bit off the coast, so everyone is frantically revising snow totals upwards. I went to bed last night in the 5-10" zone, now I am in the 14-20" zone with a potential for 30. Looks like there is 8 inches, maybe a foot out there now and...

    Weather

    There has definitely been a sea change in the way things - especially schools - close down now due to weather, around PA at least. I noticed it last year when I spent the most of the year traveling to various high schools for work - schools closed at the hint of snow, usually the night before...

    I'm a bit more northerly of the main track of the storm but I should see still 6 or so inches of snow this weekend. First real snow of the year too up here, it is going to be a madhouse out there. I saw fricking salt trucks and plows staged on I-81 this morning, a full 48 hours before it is...

    Witcher 3

    Pretty much everything is a letdown after playing this. The first witcher is very dated, kind of plays like NWN2, and lore-wise, eh, it's good but I am not sure if it's 'worth it to suffer through old engine for the story like Baldur's Gate 2' good.. The 2nd one is better and really gives you...

    Witcher 3

    The master armorer is loot and scoot though you have to get to Skellige for that. The master weaponsmith has two fights against multiple mid 20s opponents (that I can remember, anyway) that would be pretty intense to get through at a low level. Though I believe there are journeyman...

    The Gruden to TB trade was likely the best trade in that franchise's history; he won the Super Bowl for 'em. It was Dungy's team, but the Raiders went down because Gruden knew all of their plays. I remember John Lynch laughing about it on the sidelines when he was miked up, saying something...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It just boggles my mind that he would invest so much time into that series and then just say 'fuck it, you guys take it from here'. I want to believe that he is going to be involved guiding them through the major plot points until the end. I would love for him to say definitively one way or...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I hope GRRM gave them a bit of general guidance on where he is going with things, he has been pretty involved thus far as far as I know. I am going to be seriously pissed if this spirals into shitty fanfic that ends up diverging from the real story (should we ever actually see it which gets...

    So the last celebration scene, right before Rey takes off to go find Luke, I could have sworn I saw in the background Donald Sutherland high fiving someone who looked a whole hell of a lot like a blonde Maisie Williams (Arya from GoT) but might have been Carrie Fisher's daughter. I can't find...

    A Song of Ice and Fire (Released Spoilers)

    So much this. I think GoT's success caught him by surprise and he never expected it to turn into what it did, and now he's stuck writing it when he wants to be writing other shit or doing TV or swimming in mountains of cash while eating cheeseburgers. Plus you have the Jordan situation, I...

    I could have sworn at the end of the Kylo Ren/Rey fight a piece of him went flying and landed next to him after Rey fucked him up. From what I have read though that does not appear to be the case, maybe it was a hunk of cloak or hair or something.

    I thought Luke wasn't so much in hiding as he was searching for some mystical Jedi temple to try to learn where he went wrong with his teaching. Pretty much the same thing in practice, but the motive is alot different than, fuck this I'm out.
