A GLISTENING HODOR posted:Yep. And gin is for nerds in stupid hats (fedora/bowler/etc). Gin owns, gently caress you. The taste of pine sol that rotgut gin has is more pleasant than the turpentine taste rotgut vodka has. And anything else costs more. And it's hard to get classier than the good old G&T.

Remember way back in the first book when Gregor was raiding the riverlands and Ned ordered Tywin to take responsibility for the actions of his bannerman? What does that say about Ned when his own bannermen were running a rape/torture/mutilation/flaying/human hunting carnival over in the Dreadfort?

Honorable Stupid Ned assumed that practice was over and the Boltons were swell guys. IRQ posted:Which is why we need to drink. Preferably gin. *tips fedora* I like to play the GRRM drinking game. Pit on the AFFC audiobook and pick a Sansa/Alayne chapter. Every time a chill goes up your spine as you realize GRRM jerked off as he wrote it, do a shot. Expert alcoholic level: Every time fecal matter is mentioned in Dany's ADWD chapters.

Hats can be a nice accent to an ensemble, and they're practical as well. Lots of variety, and generally stylish. I've had a few over the years, and they have their place. I don't get wearing hats all the time, though. Why wear a hat non-stop?!

Hats are for when it's cold as gently caress or if you're old enough to remember the 40s. Otherwise you look like a loving idiot.

Irrefutable fact: People who own fedoras: 1. Chose HD-DVD in the "format wars". 2. Chose Zune in the "mp3 player wars". 3. Masturbate to My Little Pony 4. Smell like NesQuik and moldy socks. Irrefutable Fact.

A GLISTENING HODOR posted:I only drink Chartreuse. My 20th birthday was heavily messed-with by a guy who wanted us all to do a bunch of shots of Chartreuse. Only he kept calling it "monk water" and didn't know the actual name, just that it was a colour. Cue a two-minute game with the waiter trying to even ask if they had it, at which point he ordered six shots for the four of us, drank three of them himself, and passed out repeatedly during the movie, only to wake up angry and confused. What I'm getting at here is I know who you are now, Tony Danza Claus. You're Gaetan. You fucker.

Jesus Christ it still took hours just reading chapter summaries to finish AFFC/ADWD. I would've been pissed if I'd went ahead reading the books. Nothing happening? Nothing happening? Oh Jaime going to war in the riverlands finally something happening no wait settles it with words Nothing happening? Nothing happening? Oh poo poo Stannis going to make Boltons pay nope time to get stuck in snow and talk Nothing happening? Nothing? Anything? Oh cool at least we get another trial by combat lol nah let's leave that for another book way too much already happened in this one~ At what point did the wheels come off the bus with GRRM?
