Clarification: The other employees got paid on the snowstorm day...basically it was a paid day off and they did not forfeit a vacation day that they accrued.

Pick Answer 1 or Answer 2


Short Story: People put in for vacation time at work. The vacation time is accepted. Then suddenly the office closes one of the days due to inclement weather, or perhaps a surprise day off near a holiday.

A. The employees who put in their days get the vacation day returned to them as the office was closed anyway.

B. The employees who put in their days do not get a refund on the vacation day since they were going to be off anyway.

Both Galaxy games were mediocre. 3D Mario is great because of exploration (64, Sunshine, Oddysey). If you want linear, go play a 2D Mario game (or 2.5D). No 3D Mario game should ever be linear.

Jon is a moron...he should have committed incest with a psycho for the good of the people!

Didnt seem to bother him even after he found out

Clearly her being evil bothered him even if he was fine with the incest component of it (which Im sure hes not really thrilled about that part either given that its frowned upon in Westoros as seen by the Cersei/Jaime disgusted reactions).


Its only looked down because its viewed as part of the madness of the Targaryeans.

Are you saying everyone frowns upon Cersei/Jaimes disgusting relationship because the Targaryeans are crazy? What does one thing have to do with the other?


Whiff. What the common people knew of royal interfamilial marriages was the Targaryeans madness. So the reason they viewed the idea as bad was they felt it would cause more crazy or evil children.

Joeffrey did not help their cause against this idea.

Is this your own head-canon, or is this content from the book? I watched the show and peopl clearly found it gross. Hell, Joffrey himself told Cersei that heard of a disgusting rumor about her and Uncle Jaime.

He could have saved 1 million human lives

This basically reminds me of the 1st episode of Black Mirror. This terrorist said he was holding a girl hostage...some royalty in England iirc. He said he would kill her unless the prime minister had sex with a pig on camera in the news. Saving lives is nice...but forcing someone to have sex against their will (even if its to save lives) just doesnt sit well with me. Its not rape but it seems freakishly close to it.

Im saying your choices are sleep with your aunt who youre obviously attracted to, or reject her right after she told you no one loves her and she can only rule by making everyone fear her, you pick the former. Its stupid to not have the foresight to see that making her angry/sadder than she already is could lead to lots of people unnecessarily dying. Especially when right after he turns her down she says something like guess Ill rule by fear, then

Literally yes. If you're willing to kill 100 to save 10000 then you're not far from killing 10000 to save 1000000 in the future generations. That's exactly how Dany justified it this episode.


No... it's not. There was no justification in that way. Just because you read into that doesn't mean that's what was presented.

At best, what we got was "I am going to rule, and if you won't love me, then I'll make people fear me."

Look at that teenage angst.

This episode had some problems just like most do...but it was fine. GoT fans are basically becoming insufferable and just looking for a reason to whine.

I whined non-stop about the white walker episode this season because it was so fucking bad, but people seem to be whining about this episode more despite it being superior in every way, and we could actually see what was happening on this one.


This is a pretty dumb PoV.

ShatteredElysium posted...
The Daenerys stuff is fine, the seeds have been there a long time and it's only them rushing this last season that makes it look rushed. When you take everything as a whole compared to her previous behavior, it makes sense.


It doesn't though. It's cherry picking bits of her previous behavior while ignoring the swaths of other things. I mean, Dany has been entitled, naive, and has thought she's invincible throughout the show. Most of her big displays of power throughout the show are based on those. We shouldn't believe she LIKES carnage. That was never a displayed character trait.

We know she took advantage of harsh punishments, but for the most part, the show framed them as being necessary. When she originally freed the Unsullied, that wasn't an act of madness, it was her making a reckless play because she believed she'd be fine.

Dany has often shown love of strangers and care for their safety beyond what is appropriate. Burning the city is out of character for her. Full stop. And it's tacking on a "mad" qualifier to her without earning it. Missandei's execution wasn't the lynchpin which made her go mad... she didn't make that decision until the city surrendered.

That's what we were given. Dany decided to kill millions of innocents because the city surrendered and she won.

Im fine with you disagreeing with me, but if you arent going to say anything other than this is dumb then you dont need to bother replying at all.
