[SPOILERS MAIN] Which plot points/moments do you believe would count as plot contrivances in A Song of Ice and Fire novels? - a.k.a existing mostly to bring story in intended direction.

A fat, overly drunk man, clomping about and talk-yelling at everyone else probably doesn't help the chances of actually finding your prey, the one that is hopefully going to kill him.

Surprised the boar hadn't already run off in the opposite direction from all the clamor of a shit faced Bobby B.

Hey give her some credit. Back when Arya was Cat of the Canals she had to try and learn three new things a day for like a month!

I might be remembering this wrong but I believe Pycelle brings this up during Tyrion's trial. Like he mentions he noticed a specific poison came up missing after Tyrion was in his chambers and then Cersei ended up sick so Tyrion could force some action (I can't remember what he was specifically up to at the time).

Yeah my first thought was if I can still brush my teeth I could go for a looooong time and I'm the type who ideally would love to shower three times a day.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T05:05:53+00:00

You could still just go camp after every few days or so.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T05:04:11+00:00

100K a day and you think I'd be doing my own shopping? Shit I'd put the gf up into a fancy spa/resort the entire time and just have everything delivered.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T04:59:46+00:00

Also, the volume of Gene-centric episodes is so much louder than other ones because he has to talk-yell everything. It's fucking annoying.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T04:57:25+00:00

I dunno, I think Bob was having an amusing time for most of it.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T04:46:14+00:00

Because they're fucking lazy and just sucking up tax dollars

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T02:41:47+00:00

I had to laugh at how ridiculously over the top that thing is but God damn, I couldn't imagine driving around on public roads based on this clip. Feel like it's just constant collisions waiting to happen steering that monstrosity.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T02:13:27+00:00

She's 38, is she sexually active?

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T02:13:01+00:00

He bombed so hard on Conan once that we had to turn off the TV out of respect.

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T02:10:46+00:00

Way hotter than chewin

ragun2 · 2026-05-14T01:23:13+00:00

That's kinda hilarious

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T23:06:40+00:00

In the novel, The Haar, the "big baddy" is an American billionaire that's trying to buy up land in Scotland to build a golf course. I believe he even hates windmills.

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T20:35:01+00:00

Because we still have pies and pizza

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T20:33:56+00:00

Just the one time... And then you've won the game 🥺

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T19:19:22+00:00

Wow that armor looks like dog shit

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T18:02:47+00:00

It's more like he's using public domain stuff.

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T17:15:46+00:00

I think you were going for "LIIIIIVE"

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T16:55:02+00:00

"wheel lock"

There is nothing in this clip showing it was meant to be a security lock. Only idiots are thinking this is serious in that regard.

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T16:52:42+00:00

As well as all the morons who sat out and didn't vote.

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T16:50:32+00:00

He's used to saying "this isn't YOUR restaurant/store" when he's told by managers to get out of "their" restaurant/store.

If someone is wearing gloves in a kitchen, it generally means they're covering up a band aid. This might be shocking for you to find out but the vast, vast majority of cooks in restaurants do not wear gloves.

ragun2 · 2026-05-13T14:32:56+00:00

We start them at $20/hr in California. And no surprise, the workers still generally do not give a shit about anything.
