I saw what was coming because of the hamfisted plot "developments" in episodes 4 and 5. You acting like you knew this was coming since season 5 and acting like the rest of us are just blind is ridiculous.

What you just outlined is normal political maneuvering in the world of GoT. Every would be usurper has gone through similar political turmoil throughout the entirety of the show. The logical leap you are making to connect dots that don't exist is astounding. Barristan was eventually killed by...

Have you been paying attention to Wall Street in the past ~20 years? Wall Street sunk its claws into Bitcoin and that's what caused this massive, volatile fluctuation in its "value".

How do you get that she was considering burning it all down from that scene? What were you watching? That scene is nothing but council on political maneuvering when it comes to removing an insurgency. She wants to kill the Sons of Harpies, and the opposition to that idea isn't even telling her...

I'm not sure how we can logically jump from killing insurgents and cutting off the heads of the enemies in charge, to decimating an entire city and killing everyone in it, including civilians. The former happens throughout all of GoT. The latter is despotic. In the scene above they were trying...

You can say this about a lot of "investment" vehicles. The stock market operates more on speculation than on actual value. I don't disagree with you about it's value not being derived from a tangible product or revenue stream, at least in part. But people invest in a lot of service based...

Maybe it's all a ploy to lure Thrall back into action! Right? RIGHT?!?!

It's an overwhelmingly powerful artifact weapon everyone previously thought had been lost to time. Doomaxe.

If my TV wasn't 10 years old I may have been able to see what the fuck was happening in episode 3.

OLED... actually maybe that's a bad example, the principle has been around a long time, we just never had a practical use for it until very recently.

I wouldn't be hard pressed at all. I'd just need to drive over the Throgs Neck bridge and marvel at how there are no more toll booths and I don't even need to slow down.

Yea but in the recent 2 months or so I saw a lot of people playing what appeared to be private emu servers. People doing TBC content with skills on their hotbars that have long since been removed.

Yea I don't have much faith it will be good. But it does have potential.

I'd imagine most startups worth a damn won't be too keen on telecommuting. Also, if you're in startup country I'd also imagine they are ridiculous with their interview requirements because they probably have a ton of young, eager, naive kids chomping at the bit for any position they can get.

Yea it's definitely not terrible but it's much longer than it needed to be. As was said above, the last hour is the meat and potatoes.

A show about Valyria seems interesting. Mostly because Essos seems like a far more interesting place than Westeros.

The community exists in chat boxes and Discord channels. EQ didn't create "community" because it didn't auto-teleport people to dungeons or didn't utilize instancing (at first). It created community because it was a 3D chat program where like minded people could socialize and sometimes kill...

That's a good cinematic. I didn't realize Thrall was hiding though. What a pussy.

He said he viewed all possible outcomes. And when asked how many they win in, he said one.

That was Stannis Baratheon's army, under his command. You can justify what happened on screen however you want. The point is it came out of nowhere. And Stannis' never seemed "lawful neutral" to me. He had a witch burn his own daughter... He was out of his mind and had only one singular goal...

I do, every time. The point is this woman sucks and wastes everyone's time, constantly. Which is the fault of our various supervisors, they take the approach of apathy with her because she raises a stink every time she doesn't get her way. And since they never reign her in she actually thinks...

Anyone else have the "everything needs to be done in a meeting" person in their office? Doesn't matter how simple something would be able to figure out with a few short e-mails, she(yea, it's always a she) needs to call a meeting and invite 10+ people. Just finished a project to transform some...

A friend of mine had this done when he was 38. He said it was the worst pain he's ever endured in his life. Though he did have part of his palate scraped/reshaped as well and no idea if that was the main culprit. I'd imagine the biggest problem is it's going to hurt every time you swallow, for...

I'm assuming this is tongue in cheek but I thought about doing something similar until I realized all streamers are greedy, petulant twats. They'll take ALL the loot, every time and still ask you to do more for them for "stream content". And a lot of sad souls are willing to do it for them.

Melisandre didn't actually commit suicide, she sacrificed her last magic reserves rezzing them all.

There was no dilemma of character in that scene. The ENTIRE army save a handful of people immediately went into pillage and murder mode. The show has been filled with armies at war for many, many seasons and the only other army present in that scene that acted that way was The Dothraki, which is...

Have you ever watched one of the Q&As?

We don't know all the players or what they can do... We've already seen that there may be one other guy in this martial arts tournament that is powerful enough to be S Class. We have no real idea about Garou, and we don't know exactly how powerful these new monsters are.

I must be watching a different OPM than you guys. The buildup here is exactly how the buildup to the "real" fighting worked in season 1. The beginning of OPM S1 was kind boring if you were only interested in the fighting. And the animation doesn't seem bad to me at all. Maybe it's not up to S1...

Drogon isn't a "little brother" and neither is Dany.

Because he's a sycophant.

The entirety of the show is built on prophecy. And the rest of Maggy the Frog's prophecy became truth except for Cersei's death. So please knock it off with the "Well, I think the writers were just trying to teach us all a lesson that we are in control of our own destinies and prophecies aren't...

Was able to get the corrected W2 from my employer and yes, the original W2 was ~33k short for the "taxable income" line. I am going to try to write a letter like Burnesto suggested and already called and asked for an extension on payment because of the circumstances which was granted.

Where are you guys seeing that you need an active WoW subscription to get into the closed beta for this? I don't see that as a requirement anywhere.

Those seem to be almost exactly like modern "golf" shorts. You may want to check golf outlets for similar style shorts at bargain prices. Like here: Discount Golf Shorts | Rock Bottom Golf Just make sure to check the material. Some are cotton, but most are synthetic blends with moisture...

Can we please knock it off with the asinine real world comparisons? What about how Bin Laden died? Or Saddam Hussein? This is a high fantasy epic. Not an artsy fartsy allegory. Goddamn... You know the story sucks shit when people are twisting themselves into a pretzel and using Nazi Germany...

It doesn't matter if it's part of the stock UI or not, Questhelper was the addon everyone used in conjunction with TomTom for a long, long time until Blizzard just took it and incorporated it into the stock UI. I believe the addon engine is staying relatively the same as modern WoW and only...

I can't really remember anything about it in the show other than suddenly the golden company was a thing, and cersei had hired them. I guess they kind of forgot about dragons.

Here's something I can't remember anything about. Why did the Golden Company agree to take the contract with Cersei? They are from Essos and their founder was a bastard Targaryen so they should be keenly aware of the power of dragons.
