Then he can be the Kingslayer AND the Queenslayer. And the next monarch will probably put Sir Regicide on the kingsguard because apparently that's what you do.

Yeah, all you need to explain Jon knowing things is to say Sam read it in the Castle Black library and told him about it. Not worth wasting time on really. Plot armor is a tired complaint too. You don't tell a story about somebody that got hit with a stray arrow and died in a battle. I think...

Soy has a lot of estrogen in it. I see this all the time because dumb people think that giving hormones to beef cows is going to make them grow tits or something. I don't know if the amount in soy can actually affect you though. I don't think eating food with hormones in it is the same as...

Totally. I have some friends with 5 kids and 2 of them have brown hair and brown eyes, 2 are blonde with blue eyes, and the one in the middle is a full-on ginger just like Sansa.

Sure, but in real life soldiers don't make those kinds of calculations. Most medieval battles only lasted a few minutes before one side or the other panicked and ran and then the other side murdered them as they retreated. It's not rational but it's a normal human reaction and those dudes...

I had to turn on captions to get "chaos is a ladder". I thought he was saying "chaos is a letter" which makes no sense. I didn't remember him saying that to Varys but it's Littlefinger's life philosophy so it made perfect sense. I definitely enjoy Sansa's reactions to Bran and Arya being...

I was thinking the same thing, no way any Lannister troops hang in and fight after the first guys got barbequed. Those fuckers would have been running. I also think tackling Jamie off of a galloping horse is pretty much impossible but what are you gonna do? Those are just nitpicks though, the...

I have posted about this ad nauseum already, but I came across the stats broke down by quarter to illustrate what I have said that Kaepernick sucked in the second half last season despite the fact that he finished the year with decent stats except for wins while on an admittedly terrible team...

Good lord this thread... Maybe she just said it to make her speech to John Snow more dramatic.

This guy reloads faster than the Gunslinger.

It was a public service. It was getting very fagged up in here.

If you like Maximum Overdrive, you like it because it's bad. The only good thing about it is how cheesy it is.

My 2011 F-150 and 2013 F-350 have a split bench seat with the fold-down center console, and they are a crew cab and extended cab, respectively. I guess I don't know about newer ones than that but I assume that they are available.

I pretty much won't drive a car with a full center console because of my knee hitting it and I'm only 6' 2". Pickup truck with a bench seat is the ideal setup for my right knee and if I get in a car and my knee hits the dash I know immediately that I'm in the wrong car.

Because it's nonsensical horseshit that's why. I hated that part of the story.

Can't you set it to use both? Or do you actually have to change a setting to go from iris scanner to fingerprint reader?

Since I had been googling this stuff, this article popped up in my Google Now page. Every Stephen King Movie, Ranked From Worst to Best - Vulture 38 damn movies. I don't agree with their ranking, but it's an interesting list anyway. They actually left "The Lawnmower Man" off the list because...

He beat 2 sand snakes at once and the 3 of them captured Bronn and Jamie so I'd say we're supposed to believe that he's a top tier badass.

I think you guys are reading more into this than it actually does. It doesn't track your location, it just lets you open locked doors (and apparently buy shit at the vending machine) just like an access badge would. It's basically a badge that you can't leave at home and you don't have to...

His worst one had to be "The Lawnmower Man". It was 37% on RT, but that was only because the critics thought the computer animation was impressive for the time. In King's defense though, the plot of the movie had absolutely nothing to do with the King story which was written in the early 70's...

Shawshank Redemption was "just ok"? Come on dude, that was a great movie. 91% on rotten tomatoes and 7 oscar nominations (although no wins). "Stand By Me" was another Stephen King adaptation that is generally considered to be a very good movie although I have not personally seen it.

Shawshank Redemption also. They are more bad than good though.

The problem is that it's a word that people read a lot and don't say out loud very often, so most people decided how it was pronounced instead of actually hearing it. I have said "jif" from the beginning because I'm not an illiterate mouth breather, but if after having it confirmed, you still...

Gravel decided the writing was going to suck as soon as they ran out of book source material and has dedicated himself to proving it ever since. Given that, he's not really worth arguing with.

There have been many examples of words where the G is pronounced both ways in English, and we all know that there aren't a lot of hard and fast rules for spelling and pronunciation in English. Words are pronounced the way people pronounce them, and if that changes, the "official" rules change...

If I were you I wouldn't attempt to drug myself. Just bring something to distract you, maybe an audio book, close your eyes, breath deep, and practice relaxation techniques. Any time I get nervous flying I look for some small woman or child who is relaxed and figure that I shouldn't be more...

Do bartenders look at you funny when you order this stuff?

You definitely got tree feeling that the girl with the pixie cut was going to be significant but I just assumed it was because she saw Cersie and Jamie in bed together.

They could, but should they?

If I had to ride Amtrak because I 100% knew in advance that my plane was going down I would still think twice about it. People survive plane crashes sometimes.

You can get shitfaced on a plane as long as you have enough self control to keep your mouth shut and aren't the kind of drunk that might decide to stand on the flight attendant's cart and take a dump. Alcohol is available 24-7 at most airports and on planes partly for this reason. Also -

Yeah, it's just wanking off to point it out now, and I think it would be very hard to argue that the show would be better with realistic travel times. It would just make the story 10x longer and more boring if they even attempted to be realistic. We only have like 10 episodes left, let's stick...

My phone is always getting turned on in my pocket, volume gets turned down while I'm listening to headphones, 20 pictures of the inside of my pocket getting randomly taken, etc. Glad to hear that it hasn't been an issue with the pixel. If inexpensive Bluetooth earbuds are lasting 7-8 hours...

Do you guys that have Pixels have trouble with hitting the power button/volume rocker by accident? That has been my #1 complaint with the 6P and those buttons on the pixel 2 renders look exactly the same. No headphone jack might be a dealbreaker for me on the Pixel 2. I tried bluetooth...

Buy an F-150 you fucking faggot. The Ecoboost engine is awesome.

I agree with Nester, ask for $1500, if it gets to $1200, take it.

As someone who is sitting on several domains, you're never going to use that shit. Get what you can for it and buy some beer or something. If nothing else they're saving you $15 a year.

That thing looks like it would make a handy urinal when you were drunk in a hotel.

I know nothing about this book or movie but I can't hear the name without thinking about the bad old days of Windows where every piece of software you installed tried to make you install RealPlayer and the Yahoo toolbar but God help you if you actually tried to use RealPlayer because it never...

I think it's time to give up on this thread.
