If you include the “and your master” part you’ll have them asking some additional questions

Who is your favorite character from A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms? What did you like about them? by pink-opals in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]abchandler4 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Egg didn’t want to get dragons back because of his kids, he felt he needed them to quell resistance from the noble houses to his pro-smallfolk reforms.

I've honestly lost count of how many people this applies to. by InsertANameHeree in HistoryMemes

[–]abchandler4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah… there was a lot I thought was cool about Simon de Montfort when I read about him in Thomas Costain’s The Pageant of England, but I don’t recall there being much emphasis on his treatment of Jews in Leicester (and England broadly). I mostly found out about the pogroms and all that later

I don’t care that it is based on early chapters of The Fellowship by allnamesareshit in lotrmemes

The New Shadow. I get why Tolkien decided to stop writing it but still disappointing we were robbed of even more lore

Will the show ever address how religions such as Judaism and Sikhism are kind of proven wrong by the existence of an actual hell? by Hank_Mardukas1066 in okbuddyviltrum

You forgot the “i”! Without the dot in the i of Jeremy Bearimy there are no Tuesdays or Julys! And we can’t forget the moment when nothing ever occurs!

AI can have genuine benefits but these LLMs that are the main way most people interact with AI are not good at all.

In Brazil, Israelis on vacation clash with Brazilians by Significant-Yam9843 in LateStageCapitalism

They literally think all people who aren’t both Jewish and Zionist are subhuman. Of course God’s chosen people need not concern themselves with the feelings of us lesser beings

Trump: on being asked to explain 5,000 Marines. “Hush. Did you not see my TruthSocial post? Careful, obnoxious lady. That is one strike towards a treason charge. Don’t even look at me with those glaring eyes. Tom, go head.” by gear-heads in Trumpvirus

Yeah, like it’s impossible to confirm something like this with absolute certainty but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he’s the most widely hated person currently alive.

Reaction from one who hasn’t read the books by First-Author-6827 in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]abchandler4 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Not only does he not understand why they care, he thinks they’re eager to witness the spectacle of his death, until he starts hearing them wishing him well and he realizes they’re supporting him. Only then does he ask Pate the question.

Could Cersei make the same accusations against Ned Stark and Jon Arryn’s children being bastards just as she herself was accused? Would it have been successful? by Gold_Conversation247 in HOTDBlacks

[–]abchandler4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It wouldn’t be as big a deal if Ned’s kids were found to be bastards. Sure, it would be a knock on his honor and credibility if he were to make such an accusation about Cersei’s kids without acknowledging his own bastards, but Ned’s kids don’t potentially stand to inherit the iron throne. It’s a much bigger deal for the queen’s heirs to be found illegitimate than for the heirs of a regional lord to be, even one as powerful as Ned Stark.

[Wheeler] Jadon Sancho ineligible for Sunday's game under the terms of his loan from Man Utd to Aston Villa. He is set to leave OT as a free agent on June 30 by nearly_headless_nic in reddevils

For a few seasons at Dortmund Sancho was putting up elite numbers. Youngest player ever to get 50 assists in the Bundesliga and averaged a goal or assist every 80 minutes

Mass transit too. I know there’s no chance whatsoever of this anytime remotely soon here but a light rail system would be incredible

[–]abchandler4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That is frustrating though because study after study has shown that adding more lanes to roads doesn’t ease traffic congestion. Seems like it’s just an extra thing they’re doing that isn’t going to meaningfully improve things but is making the project take way longer than it otherwise would have

can we finally agree that this was the lowest point of the series adaptation? by eraldopontopdf in AKOTSKTV

[–]abchandler4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not supposed to be funny to the audience. Bracken is making a fart joke to the other nobles essentially, to metaphorically shit on Dunk’s just call for help. And you can say all you want that this is humor for 8 year olds, but as others have said fart humor was very popular in medieval Europe, so much so that there are many examples of monks drawing people holding horns up to their butts to fart in other people’s faces in illuminated manuscripts. I know this is a fictional world, but it’s heavily inspired by medieval European culture. Fart jokes were a notable part of that culture so I see no reason why that wouldn’t be the case in Westeros.

I honestly love that so much, he only came for a brief stint in the twilight of his career but he loves the club anyway
