How do you forget Darkstar?

He is of the night.

If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

Everyone should just like this page here.

Darkstar even has his own theme song.

When he makes his triumphant debut in the show, this song will play and the world will know the name of the night.

GRRM's most clueless moment to date is that interview where he is shocked to hear people think Darkstar is a joke and goes "... but I thought everyone liked Darkstar, he's such a bad boy".

Oh ... and George doesn't seem to have known that Darkstar isn't very popular. ;) He thought that a "bad boy" character would go over well, since people seem to love the Hound and even Theon Greyjoy so very much.

No, he just raped his straight friends while they were drunk. He deleted the original post, but people quoted it and his other posts.

Still catching up: the Thor derail got me back, and the saddest story ever (the books being based on GRRM's dying turtles) made me laugh out loud.

Yeah, I finished reading the books (ok I cheated I watched the first three seasons, then started halfway through whichever one the third book was) a couple months ago and have enjoyed reading this thread way more than I would enjoy actually discussing the books.

So after reading through this thread, I was tempted to go back and re-read ADWD, but then I remembered I had lent it to a friend and not gotten it back yet. I feel like I've dodged a bullet.

I like how Georges definition of "bad boy" extends from a guy who failed at hitting a little girl with a sword and then ran away all the way to famed mass murderer/rapists.

Gregor and Ramsay may be raping, murderous monsters, but are they of the night?

It's also great because Darkstar whines about how much more popular the Sword of the Morning was.

I'm sure I saw a screen capture of the comments on his Livejournal once where some ladies were discussing how sexy Ramsay was and GRRM commented to the effect of "Why do you like Ramsay when you could love a warm loving guy like Samwell. :("

It summarises him so well that I'm going to believe it's real even if it's proven otherwise.

In fairness, one of the few times a sane person would go for Samwell over anybody else would be when you're comparing him with Ramsay loving Bolton.

Ramsay's one of those characters that has a oddly large fan who wants to bone them following on the likes of Tumblr and other sites where weird people congregate to celebrate how hosed up they are.

I don't find it that odd seeing as we live in a nation where people like Ted Bundy and Jeffrey Dahmer get marriage proposals mailed to their jail cells.
