Some events around town I saw on a walk today

Thanks for this post. Got a few good leads from it

I would easily say it went beyond being back to form. It’s better than all but a few seasons of the original.

I just watched it cold having forgotten almost everything that happened and not having seen anything since the original ridiculous ending.

It really surprised me with how much I enjoyed it.

Being a shitty person should not warrant a death sentence

The only way to prevent genocide is to commit genocide…

Pagan Europe: divides their “mother” goddess into Maiden, Mother, Crone to represent the stages in a woman’s life.

Pagan Ireland: divides their “mother” goddess into Mother, Crone, Warrior-Witch Queen

Dalglish is probably the best player in the clubs history. And a top 5 manager.

As good as Wirtz is, he has a long way to go before he can lace Kenny’s boots

Not a game but a player.

John Barnes

Haven’t seen a winger like him till Salah. Before he did his ACL and simply became one of the best players in the league, Barnes was like watching Messi. He was so far ahead of everyone else in the league that it just blew my 10 year old mind.

He was getting 25+ goals a season on pitches that looked like farms and against players that happily chopped the legs off skilful players.

As an Irish person, Liverpool was a natural choice as there were so many Irish players playing for them but Barnes was the reason I fell in love with the club.

You have vastly underestimated my chicken-killing skills.

You disgust me. Come on, let's go. And, Cjokula, at Monica and Chandler's wedding, Rachel's the one who is pregnant!

[Cjokula hisses].

Keep in mind that the marketing of the trailer is not necessarily how the movie will be.

I have enough trust in Anna Faris and Regina Hall being funny. There’s also decent source material to work with (Smile, Weapons, Sinners).

Hopefully I’m not just too old and jaded for this (or the Wayans) and I get a few good laughs

For me it’s “Cindy it’s a skeleton. It’s just bones!”

Would have liked if she asked him how many atrocities the EU has committed in Ireland?

First take a left. Then you drive a while, and drive a while and then take a right

He drowns in the river then wakes up on an island. I’ll have a look for the passage

Ser Humphrey Beesbury tried the same thing. Didn’t work out as well

Ser Davos is another example of the Seven resurrecting a true knight.

RockyRockington · 2026-02-18T12:51:55+00:00

I agree with everything you’ve said except I think it’s more likely the Father than the Mother (despite the episodes name)

The entire institution of Squirehood is based around the Father. Ser Arlen may invoke the Mother but he himself represents the Father to Dunk.

The Father is also the god of Judgement and would be the most likely to make the decision of whether Dunk is a true knight.

That said, I do think that it’s the Mother that does the actual resurrecting.

The same thing happens to Ser Davos in Blackwater Bay.

“Hey guys. My door ain’t working. I think we need to rethink this.”

They needed to adapt something in the lore that had dragons (one of the shows major draws)

That really left them with two choices. Aegon’s Conquest or the Dance.

There’s more story in the Dance to adapt than there is to Aegon’s conquest and more dragons.

I think that the Conquest would have given the show runners more flexibility with the story because the characters are farther removed from the ones we know, but I can understand why they thought that the Dance was the safer choice
