Thanks man Is it weird that I remember having a pseudo e-crush on you back like... I dunno, 10 years or so ago or more? I don't even remember which forum. Nothing creepy or weird, I just seem to recall that you were queer and always had perceptive and erudite things to say, so I would take note of your name/avatar when I saw it and would give your posts actual consideration, is really all I mean. Or maybe I'm imagining the part about you being queer, hard to keep all it in order sometimes, kaworu fucked around with this message at 12:22 on May 17, 2017 |

I don't remember how it is in the lovely books but in the show Tywin returning to Kings landing coincides with Cat freeing Jaime and starting up the trouble with the Karstarks and (depending on how fungible the timeline between seasons is) Cat's dad dying which delays them too. You get the sense that Robb's army is in a holding pattern as he deals with that and prepares to attack Casterly Rock.

Liquid Communism posted:It's almost like this obese cheesedick doesn't understand audiences at all. He seems to know that there is demand for it - he just doesn't want to do it. We will know all the critical poo poo, and personally, I like having my mysteries. I never wanted to know why Darth Vader turned evil - I didn't need to know, and any story that was told would be underwhelming. I don't want to know exactly what happened while Lyanna and Rhaegar were banging away for 9 months, or what their thoughts were. I mean It is interesting - but more in a "find a bit of an old story" or "hear a snipped from the past" kind of way. Otherwise it all just feels like "Muppet Babies" if you are old enough to remember that "babies" theme that ran through cartoons and stuff while they tried to breath life into lovely old IPs. I mean - look you are right - and in this particular case, having some other jagoffs write the background story seems like the way to go for everyone. He wouldn't even have to "Twice tell" that story again. Now that I Think about it.. I'll be the problem is they need to write scripts right now. And the Mountain who does not Write still doesn't know everything that happens. So by spinning into totally new territory HBO 1) can start now 2) doesn't need to worry about storyline conflicts 3) GRRM might actually be willing to write a bit.. since he will do ANYTHING but work on the main book.

Ugh it's two fat guys talking about video games but they couch the language cleverly and did a sick burn on Marshall Mathers. Oh poo poo they described my GBA experience!

Penny Arcade is by far the most popular webcomic to ever exist. I think we'd all be lying to ourselves if we pretended that success didn't have something to do with all the goon antagonism. I used to read them semi frequently but lost interest years ago. After being around for almost 20 years and making 3 comics a week for that whole time, it's easy to find several examples of lovely comics if you really wanted. They're okay but hardly worth having a strong opinion about either way.

syscall girl posted:Achewood, dude Popular, not best. Achewood has spent a good chunk of the last 10 years on hiatus. Penny Arcade has several comics on their site, multiple yearly cons all over the world, multiple seasons of a reality show, dozens of books, and as of ~8 years ago a good 30 people working for them. It's probably tripled since then.
