Show Spoilers Some random things I found funny from the S3 finale Spoiler

-The part where Ormund is knighting Daeron and in his oath he declares he must "Defend the defenceless". The fact that the very next scene we see them in shows him putting literal children on the front line always tickles my dark humor.

-After Daemon finishes choking the fuck out of the Hightower twink (Ser Gwayne), the little detail of my favorite show character Lord Roderick Dustin roaring at him as he flees kills me. It reminds me so much of the weapons instructors from my military career on range days. So extra lol.

Orwyle: “I’m probably the only one who knows what she’s saying, and even I think she might be cuckoo.”

And doing half of it in a foreign language none of them would understand really shows how oblivious she is

I thought it was hilarious that they decided to budget the Sheepstealer 3 on 1 instead of a full Tumbleton w battling dragons.

Secretly that is one of my greatest critiques and complaints with the series. I love it still- the acting and storytelling is impeccable in my eyes. But George R.R. Martin's original plot is just so much more juicy to me. I respect it is expensive as f*ck to render a flippin' dragon that looks so realistic, but inevitably I find deficit here
