While waiting for season 2 I tend to post more non-ASOIAF related stuff than usual. But since it usually involves Nicolas Cage I think you should all be grateful that I am bringing his glorious light to your lives.
Now gurl, you know that’s a lie.
This was basically inspired by that one line Connington has that goes something like “Elia was not worthy of Rhaegar”, which is such a jealousy-laced sentence seriously you guys
Connington just liked showing Rhaegar his land, guys.
Fucking hell.
Now TIME, you know that’s a lie.
When it comes to the top fiction books of the year:
1. A Dance with Dragons by George R.R. Martin
winteriscomingandthefuryisours:
I mean, yeah go ahead and bash characters, but authors work hard to get where they are and dedicate time and effort… don’t bash them. Yes you have an opinion, no need to go hating about it.
…however Stephanie Meyer is the exception…
1.) No, I love bashing…
I think Meyer is the exception because, while other creators work hard, she’s very lazy with her work (Twilight’s innumerable typos provide evidence).
I don’t think anyone who is a fan of GRRM should be criticizing another author’s laziness tbh.
I don’t buy that typos prove Meyer works less hard than other authors either. It just means she’s not a meticulous writer. And who knows, maybe she’s not good at editing her own work. Most authors aren’t. Once again, GRRM.
I don’t think GRRM is lazy with his work because it takes him years to write. When I meant that Meyer is lazy, what I meant was that she just doesn’t care. She types a few sentences and doesn’t bother with it.
It takes him years to write because yes, he is lazy. Do you think ADWD would even have been published this year if HBO wasn’t on his back to get it out? He would much rather go to conventions and edit anthologies no one gives a shit about than work on ASOIAF. And when he does, he would rather write tedious world-building than actually advance the plot because that would take too much effort.
GRRM is absolutely a lazy fuck. And like Stephenie, he does not care.
If he cared, ADWD would not have been published in its current state.
moustachio rides $5“dany, seriously. maybe we should do something about the murders,”
“yes, you’re right. we should decree that daario never wears clothes,”
“what, no, that’s no-“
“you’re one hundred percent right barristan, he should be slathered in oil as well! how much money do we have to spare?”
“dany, you’re not listening, people are dying, we have NO MONEY, they burned all our crops and res-“
“yes good, order 200,000,000 jars of oil for daario’s mustachios and naked body,”
Perfect summary tbqh.
BECAUSE ADWD WAS FILLED WITH PORN.
TURTLE PORN.
YO, THOSE TURTLES WAS TOTES ESSENTIAL TO THE PLOT, OKAY?
ALSO, HAVE YOU EVER HEARD THE SOUND OF A MATING TURTLE? SHIT IS FUCKED UP RIGHT THERE.
Hitler’s reaction to the end of A Dance With Dragons.
*MAJOR FUCKING SPOILERS OBVIOUSLY*
You know nothing, Hitler.
“I have to say my least favorite character in the whole series is Dany. I just don’t like her or her story, and I don’t see her as a strong female character.”
This confession has GOT to be written by someone that didn’t read the books… or if they did, they’ve only read the first one.
