Couldn't be worse this one. Can't believe it's real. Pelosi then made a speech about cooking dosa with Kamala Harris.

    So Drogon laying waste to King's Landing and burning a bunch of innocents is a metaphor for her letting millions die to COVID?

      It could also be the more direct metaphor for her role in the murder of god knows how many people around the world at the hands of Amerikkka and it's allies

      Drogon

      That was the dragon's name? Good gravy, Strong Bad named dragons better.

        I hate to uhm actually but Drogon is named after Daenerys's late husband Khal Drogo. It's unfortunately not a naming your dog Doggy situation

          The SV enjoyer in the show version, right?

          That's still about the silliest fantasy fiction name I've heard since Panis Rhal.

              I didn't even know that one; most of my lore absorption was from involuntary osmosis from Gamboheads around me for years and media oversaturation in publications and online. I guess between those two silly names all I can say is

                Yeah, he's the self-insert neckbeard not-Samwise-Gamgee character's little brother. I'm surprised that they didn't change his name in the show to something more American-friendly, like Pennis. dennis

                ...which is exactly what they did with Hodor. His real name in the books is Walder, but in the show it's "Wylis" so that burgerbrains wouldn't get confused and think he was David Bradley's character, I guess.

          Someone else mentioned that and now I know, yeah.

          In the books it's less directly SA yet still (CW: SA anyway, kiddie creeper shit)

          spoiler

          statutory rape as far as I understand it, complete with narrative emphasis on a child's sexual characteristics and how "full mast" her assailant was.

          I sometimes hear about how much better the books were than the show, but it still seems, to me, just a variation difference between what particular creepy shit was sensationalistically emphasized for entertainment purposes between each.

      Yeah, I refuse to watch GoT and shit but even I thought, like, "wait, didn't that character kill a bunch of people?"

        In the Gambo show, she was the one character that said she wanted to improve society somewhat instead of just murderfucking for the status quo, and she had the power and reach to at least try to do so, so of course the trust fund creeps that had a prior grudge against her actress made her do a puppy-kicking level of petty evil before even the possibility of society actually changing somewhat might be noticed by the average hog eating the slop.
