@Don Hollywood Herrera @Liu Kang @Gilver @dem bath salts @Ari Gold Bawse just finished AFFC and started ADWD

im sure you've all heard this before but

Spoiler

is syrio jaqen? is varys connected to the house of black and white, since he may have sent jaqen yoren's way, thus linking the wall-house stark-faceless brehs for whatever reason? it's a weak theory, but i like it i really enjoyed the ramping up of the religious zealotry and fanaticism in this one. we know melisandre and thoros is redhead taliban but gendry and them at the inn being converted as kids, and the sparrows tooling up middle ages europe went nuts over their gods and religious views when times got tough, seemingly to soothe the pain but usually ended up bringing more death, just like this

cersei getting thrown in the bushes was rarely do we get such a gratifying moment in this canon

also, it's pretty clear sandor is a monk now, what is the argument against that, without ADWD spoilers please?

Spoiler

Nah, it definitely is him as the novice gravedigger. GRRM hasn't done anything for it to be otherwise aside from the Elder Brother saying the Hound is dead. But he only says the Hound is dead, not Sandor. As another hint, he mentions that his horse, Stranger, is with him, too. But that they changed its name to Driftwood.

yeah, the horse is obviously Stranger. why would anyone say it's not him then? there seems to be an actual debate on this. Sandor might be the GOAT character btw, a PTSD burn victim who protects young girls but does it so they won't fall in love with him and he gets busy as fukk with that sword

just another broken man except he fell further than the normal broken man

hope to get WOIAF soon. wanna finish ADWD beforehand, but who am i kidding, i cant resist :ilost:

[Roaden Polynice]

Though they're showin it out in the suburbs round my parts

A COUCH IN FLORIDA-
Juan Agudelo was shocked and saddened this morning to discover that his agent, Frank Goldstone, has passed away. Agudelo was more surprised to find that Goldstone met his end almost a year ago.
"He told me on our last phone conversation to just hold tight and he would handle everything," Agudelo told The Touch Line Times. "He said not to bother Stoke or MLS or anyone, and that he would be in touch as soon as he had good news."
The phone never rang. That conversation occurred in March of 2014, likely just hours before Goldstone was killed in a freak blimp accident. Goldstone’s estate reportedly had no instructions to notify his clients upon his demise.

When asked how he could have missed the news of his agent’s untimely death, Agudelo told us that he doesn’t read the news. “Whenever I go on twitter or the internet I just get mad. I spend most of my time watching Dragonball-Z and playing FIFA. I’m getting really good, too.”

RETIREMENT-
International soccer legend Thierry Henry announced his early retirement today, adding his name to the long list of promising players ruined by Major League Soccer. He came to MLS over four years ago after stints in the Premier League and La Liga, bringing his impressively skilled game to the New York Red Bulls.

But this high-flying Frenchman ventured too close to the sun, the sun in this metaphor being the overly physical style of play and restrictive salary structure of Major League Soccer. “I just couldn’t go on playing the game after that,” Henry told us when we sat down with him at his South Florida retirement community.

“I feel like I could still keep playing, but the game is ruined for me. In America, there is no promotion and relegation, which changes everything. What is the point? If you can’t be relegated to a lower league, then you are playing for nothing. Nothing at all. I used to love this game, but MLS and its single entity have stolen that from me.”

Thierry Henry, who was reportedly offered starting roles at several EPL clubs following his move from MLS, has opted to move instead to the Shady Palms Retirement Village in Boca Raton where he will learn to paint and plans on participating in the afternoon shuffleboard league which, of course, features three tiers of promotion and relegation.

this is some good stuff.
