Well I think she hates Brienne for a lot of reasons, but I wouldn't precisely discount jealousy of her freedom as part of it.

It's funny because Breinne is tortured by what she wears and that scene had absolutely nothing to do with her outfit (besides the fact that she looked goofy as hell as always)

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.

Yeah, Cersei is all "the only power a woman has is her sex :reject:" while Brienne is running around in plate, cracking skulls like a badass and getting Jaime's attention. She very much hates women who can escape the role she herself in trapped in, because Cersei hates herself most of all.

Yes but it is absurd to think that Cercei was jealous of her giganto-gown. She was very clearly reacting to her mannerisms as a whole. She's never even seen her in plate.

Well I've never even seen the episode, so perhaps it is I who is the true Cersei Lannister :reject:

Brienne approaches the royal table or w/e and curtsies, and cercei's like "Did you just bow?" and the poster I quoted thought she was noticing her pants

What exactly is the difference between a newb and a show-watcher in that "comic"?

Also, all three of them are basically expressing the same emotion?

I think you should have posted that in the lovely webcomics thread.

Yeah, because I was going to say all those panels just depict mundane reality without any joke anywhere, and maybe giving GRRM a very very flattering amount of credit on his progress so far.

The only thing on GRRMs Amstrad is jailbait.


I just stumbled across a reddit thread where a bunch of people were discussing "theories" about the circumstances of Joffrey's death. It's all pretty much all nail on the head stuff and everyone in there has clearly read the book and pretends otherwise. I still don't understand at all what people get out of pretending they haven't read the book to seem like they've untied the Gordian Knot. It's all in a 15 year old book from a man whose mind is ruined by syphillis, none of this is at all secret information.

Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
So I just binged watched the first 3 seasons over the last week. I knew pretty much every spoiler ahead of time and I really don't care if I hear more. I read on wiki about how Ygritte meets her end but are there any spoilers out there to point to HBO going in a different direction with the character? I'm going to be kind of disappointed if the show throws away yet another fan favorite character because GRRM hates the world.

Yes, it would be great to have her maybe she could prevent Jon from getting stabbed to death or something. oooh or maybe she could show Mellindry the Lords Kiss and she could be all I SEE THE LORD OF LIGHT IN YOUR FIREBUSH!

It did always bother me that she was made so attractive.

She's fine and all, she just isn't important. Or rather she is important as a rite of passage for Jon, both for him to become a "man" in the sexual sense, and then later to become a "man" by placing his loyalty to the Night's Watch over his loyalty to her. This is loyalty is cemented with her death.

Plus its nice and pathetic when in the aftermath of the fight at the wall he flips her over and she is all arrow'd up... I'll bet they make it HIS arrow in the tv show. Because TV likes to hit the big buttons.

Too bad she wasn't a prozzy or it could have been a case of literally Bros before Hoes.
