Grey Fox

I had forgotten that Frey died last season. I was surprised that it was Arya, I cheered.
Colonel Caliga is Awesome.

Arya killing them off was to replace lady stoneheart doing it.

Yeah. The setup in the books seems to be leading that way and is much more believable.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

I don't do meditation.  I drink alcohol to relax, like normal people.

Arya killing the freys was awesome.

Ed sheeran and friends was odd.

True. Didn't consider that. Disappointing. I thought some mystic guy.

I still have no idea who Ed Sheeran is, other than British TV thinks he is a somebody.

Don't know him either, but he's selling shitloads of albums: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Sheeran_discography

How's that cave of yours? Hope it's comfy. :P

I mean, I don't listen to his music but I know that the guy is a massively popular musician.

Funny ending to this video, got to watch the whole thing for full effect.

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Surely you must have listened to a few of his songs without realizing who he was. I mean, "Shape of You" has been everywhere this year, for instance.

I don't think I have heard it but then again I immediately tune the radio away when something like that comes up. How can people even figure out when its a different singer singing? They all have their voices auto-tuned to sound the same.

You've heard 'I see fire', from 'The Desolation of Smaug'.


Anyway, good episode.  Nice touch with the Lannister soldiers; as hard as it is to believe there are decent people on every side.

Very surprising. His headlining of Glastonbury a few weeks back was big news.

Ok, you suffer from premature grumpy old man syndrome, then.  :P

Fake elitism. "I'm too good for that music".

I know who Ed Sheeran is, Shape of You is pretty good.
