  1. I still think it's Beshear... He makes way to much sense... and talk of Shapiro / Walz just throwing things off.
  2. Yeah Rex's rich friends are even MORE out on Surly now.
  3. Alys Rivers showed Daemon the Song of Ice and Fire, it's the basis for the whole GoT universe and the same vision that led to House Targaryen leaving Old Valyria and Aegon's Conquest, and the same story that Viserys told to Rhaenyra. If you're talking about Aemond and Helaena and not Daemon....I'm not sure what you're talking about tbh.
  4. She's obviously not Varys, but I feel like you're letting recency bias creep in because she hasn't done anything but yap at Rhaenyra this season. She was great in S1, not a dull scene where she was involved. S2 is nothing but dull scenes for her. A real waste of potential.
  5. Why is this so funny? I'm cackling
  6. Also, before I forget:
  7. I would say Otto Hightower fits for me, but of course he isn't around at the moment. He's about as close as we'll get to a Tywin Lannister type character in this show. Viserys was a good character and a great performance, but he's long gone. I can't fault Emma D'Arcy or Olivia Cooke, their performances are both impeccable. The story and its pacing is what makes their characters suffer. Rhaenys was probably the best character remaining in the show, but also gone. Daemon could be an amazing character if they tried. He was great in season 1, but forgettable this season. Larys Strong started out really interesting but his character hasn't evolved much at all and has only gotten more dull. Aemond could have been a great character but he really only hits one note. Being an angry, overcompensating little bitch driving around a big truck only works if you act like a normal person at least some of the time. Mysaria could be close to as cool as Varys but they don't give her anything to do or any real screen time. Criston Cole is easy to hate, but also boring. He doesn't do anything but act like a tool and whine. Like Aemond, no character depth, completely one note, despite the little speech they gave him in this episode. I think the main problem is there are just too many characters to flesh out in a show they're cobbling together from really thin source material. The true irony is it feels like they're milking it for all it's worth, and yet the timeline is sped up and too much is skimmed over to let us get to know any character really.
  8. This is a pipe dream at best. All the known riders have dragonrider blood.
  9. There's nothing, besides Trump eating shit in November, that would make me happier than the mullahs being forced out and fucking off forever.
  10. I would pay oh, so much money to watch her say those exact words live.
  11. Of course not, but I did own it. That said, being that this is Surly, I'm going to clap back if I feel like it. That's how the world works and message boards are no different, this one in particular. Regardless, I'm not interested in continuing the argument, as you and Bullneck seem to be. It's over with.
  12. He'll provide the best, most succinct summary that catturd, Ian Miles Cheong, Chaya Raichik or Elon Musk can provide [via a tweet].
  13. 0% chance. Iran's leadership is shitty as fuck but they're not that stupid.
  14. Man, I'm not gonna lie, I don't eat McD's much anymore, but I always eat the fries without ketchup. In fact, I think ketchup is a D-tier condiment at best. I'll see myself out.
  15. Is it weird to eat your fries without ketchup? Asking for a friend.
  16. I think he's referring to the reporter.
  17. Dude you're just trying to keep it going. You're weird.
  18. It's also worth noting that either Walz or Beshear or both most likely have opinions regarding Israel/Palestine that I would personally find shitty, but it is effectively a non-issue for me when it comes to the election. Pretty much any person that would be on the ticket is going to have the default NPC American politician position, and anyone in the orbit of Trump's GOP would be much worse, in any case. I'm not, and never have been interested in purity tests, only who gives the best +EV to beat Trump. I think Shapiro is too risky of a candidate compared to the others.
  19. Yeah this says it pretty well, I think. Shapiro being picked certainly won't stop me from voting for Harris, but I would much prefer Walz or Beshear.
  20. Nah I'm dropping the argument, but in my defense all I did was ask what he thought was great about Shapiro. Homeboy then immediately implied I was stupid because I mixed up a margin of victory in my head, despite the fact that I admitted I was wrong well before he made the post, and I hadn't insulted anyone at all. Maybe I shouldn't clap back, but that's just not how I'm programmed. But yeah, it's my fault, I guess.
  21. Dude you're the one lashing out. And not just at me. Shut the fuck up.
  22. Oh so this is why you're pissed off. Got it.
  23. You realize these things aren't mutually exclusive, right? Please tell me you realize that.
