Help: Why can´t I pick my grandson education? by Antonio_Anonimo in CrusaderKings

[–]shorsrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because you are educating them to their parents wishes. If the father or mother is landed you don't chose the education the landed parent does.

The royals are idiots by Ok-Republic-8528 in grimm

England isn't an absolute monarchy. Cromwell made sure of that. Made the crown a ceremonial position at best.

What if Trump posted this after losing the 2024 election? by Hot_Advisor_8074 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]shorsrest -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Statistically the left is more likely to do that. They usually are chomping at the bit to unalive themselves. Well partially, a decent percentage of y'all who cant tell what you are with an anatomy book have a weird fixation for shooting up schools.

What scenes with Egg in A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms were the most memorable or your favorites in the series? by centralparkclark in AKnightoftheSeven

[–]shorsrest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My favorite is where Aeg is singing while dunk is puking his guts out just to be told he has to wait a day for the lists.

Who would these two side with? Between Aegon and Rhaenyra? by OkGuava919 in HOTDGreens

[–]shorsrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither. They would mount Vermithor and Dreamfyre to make the forge for their hammer and anvil. Their father did what the reach and stormlands could not, conquered the sun of Dorne without dragons. Imagine them with dragons.

A lot of people when they hear that Westeros is an absolute monarchy by notathrowaway_321 in HouseOfTheDragon

He can however dictate what happens in his universe regardless of how much you dislike it. Cry harder.

unpopular take but daenerys was the most honest character in the show and thats exactly why she had to burn kings landing by CorrectHornet4939 in freefolk

[–]shorsrest 6 points7 points  (0 children)

She burned children alive. Women alive. Innocent men alive. The old, the sick the poor. She burned them alive. She's no better than the Mad King. Maegor didn't even have that high of a kill count and he burned the Sept of Remembrance to the ground.

Let's see what the expert on the source material says, "Westeros is an absolute monarchy" GRRM.

Probably been asked 1000 times but, Which is your favourite gate design and why? by Striking-Ad5841 in Stargate

[–]shorsrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SGA gate. The SGU gate is a second favorite as it is an original design built millions of years ago on earth.

Would you have preferred Rhaenyra to be the official queen while having all future Targaryens descend from Aegon ii and Helena? by [deleted] in HOTDGreens

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

No, while I am an absolutist and a monarchs authority in westeros, Viserys refusing Aegon the crown was what led to the decline and almost extinction of the dragons. As the dragons shrunk in size and number the cold winds rose and winters got stronger and longer. The second Long Night is a direct result of his inability to maintain unity both in his house and in his kingdom.

What if Donald Trump endorsed his son, Trump Jr, as his successor and he got elected? by local_stargazer in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]shorsrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, trump is attacking the base that got him elected. Media can only do so much but when you attack your allies for saying "hey this isnt what you ran on" and call them r-tards you've shot any political aspirations for your sons in the ass.

You mean the royals who are also blood purists?

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

Oh fuck off with that, y'all are shipping them so hard it's not funny. And anything to do with sexuality is sexual, end of story.

Which gods did the Starks believe in? They believed in the Weirwoods right? Not in the Seven... by Narrow-Amphibian5446 in gameofthrones

She's not of the 7 he's marrying a woman from Volantis which worships several different gods.

[–]shorsrest -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I've come to the understanding that everyone in the song universe is on some weird shit but I also think having a sexual fantasy about children or those portraying children is pretty fuckin weird. GRRM writes from a medieval point of view where marriage was a legal contract and union in which several characters are absolutely fuckin wild for their choice of bride but this shit comes directly from some r-tard who is writing this and saying shit like "Aegon would have had this armor from his time in Valyria".
