I Killed Kenny

I think it will be very important that Jaime and Cersei are similar, if they are just blond and good looking that pair will lose their "magic"

What was I reading when I was 15?

Sci-fi. I hated fantasy. I read The Hobbit when I was like 10, but didn't read LOTR until I got word the movies were coming out.

Ah, I guess you got hooked after reading the Talmud.

Mannen dricker, kvinnan ater.

Translation?

I skipped my sand nigger lessons in high school. I took Arabic instead, as it is more cultural and intellectually relevant.

That was swedish, from the Rossetta Stone freebie online.

I love you siege. You are funny, and you have the curiousity and innocence of a child. :hug:

If you let someone handcuff you, and put a rope around your neck, don't act all surprised if they hang you!

- Eyal Yanilov.

Forget about winning and losing; forget about pride and pain. Let your opponent graze your skin and you smash into his flesh; let him smash into your flesh and you fracture his bones; let him fracture your bones and you take his life. Do not be concerned with escaping safely - lay your life before him.

Really?

Way, though I think your software really should get it right with umlauts.

A terrorist which starts a slaughter quoting Locke, Burke and Mill has completely missed the point.
The fact remains that the only person or group to applaud the Norway massacre are random Islamists.

I am a latecomer to this thread.

Has anyone else made a joke about them releasing one episode, and then waiting six years to release a second one, so that the fans will feel a powerful connection to the novels?  :)

Wow, talk about idiots who never had kids weighing in on what a 15 y.o. shouldn't read.

A 15 y.o. is not a child. It's the high school age. People who are 15 can watch movies like "Watchmen", "Fight Club" or "Tudors", and high school curricula include books like "Lord of Flies", "Catcher in the Rye" or "Macbeth".

Retards, seriously.  :rolleyes:
