Latest Game of Thrones Episode Reaction

[smofbabe]

As predicted, there has been a strong reaction to the latest Game of Thrones TV episode: for those who have not read the books, the reaction has mostly been shock; for those who have read the books, the reaction has mostly been smug glee. My favorites:

• "News" report :-)


• Compilation of video reactions (As Carrie Vaughn pointed out, though, one wonders what creepy friends would set up to film other friends' reactions!)


• Compilation of the best Twitter quotes


• My favorite Twitter quote: "Somewhere, a couple has just reconsidered a Game of Thrones-themed wedding"


• Funny LOL


• My favorite LOL

I hadn't seen the "Favorite LOL", and it did make me laugh out loud. Thank you for sharing.

He made The Onion (http://www.theonion.com/articles/oh-shit-i-totally-forgot-that-happens,32673/) with this episode. Cultural meme saturation now at 99%.

One of my favorites far pre-dates Sunday's episode. The top photo is of JK Rowling, captioned "It was so difficult for me to kill all those characters in the last book. I'd really grown to love them." The lower picture is of George smiling, captioned "Isn't she precious?"

Actually, that's a two-parter: The first one that you cite (which, btw, in the versions I saw had George saying "Isn't she adorable?") was followed a couple of days later by one with George on top saying "It's really hard to finish a series" and JK Rowling on the bottom saying "Isn't he adorable?" :->

LOL. Obviously I saw a variant. Love the follow-up.

Comment on a blog somewhere -- "Does this mean they'll have to return the presents?"
