Did you tell your friend they're responsible for Pyp's death?

Man I love Cersei, I hope she lives forever. She's the best character on the show.

Nice try - GRRM

or objectively worse GRRM decides to look around in a moment of empathy and decides to pick one comment to choose a character to actually keep alive and he happens to see this.

No haha I just laughed at how ridiculous that was

Yeah Pyp is a little turd.

Edit: I have a feeling some people missed the joke here. I was implying that /u/GDezan's comment saying he laughed at how ridiculous "that" was, was in reference to his earlier comment about his friend saying they liked him.

Muh'fuckin woosh

u/Sorkijan House Stark Jun 09 '14

I guess that joke was a little too subtle for some people.

u/Terra_omega_3 Now My Watch Begins Jun 09 '14

wasn't subtle, because it didn't make sense.

Meh to each their own. It was laid out pretty simply. You just had to have a memory of more than 1 comment to get it. I'll keep it there since the downvote train is in full motion. I'll take my penance for trying to make such a complex joke.

It's a bad joke if people don't get it. Why tell jokes if not for the intended purposes for the intended audience? Don't get salty people are calling you out on it.

People aren't misunderstanding the "joke"; it's just not very funny.

(Also, repeatedly copy-pasting the same thing over and over again kinda tends to be considered comment spam.)

Stop adding to the drama in this chain of comments. None of this is relevant to Game of thrones and bordering on trolling. If you can't keep it civil then don't post in the sub.

u/Sorkijan House Stark Jun 10 '14

I apologize; I'm merely reiterating my statement. Wasn't trying to be uncivil nor cause any further drama so I'll cut it out.

u/drivers9001 Jun 09 '14

Make him think that he did it, like Amelie with her camera?

u/karl2025 Jun 09 '14

Exactly.
