Romance / Re: Am I Gradually Becoming A Misogynist? by kay9(m): 6:31pm On Feb 05, 2023 |
vannessa7: Do you know that your comment is the ONLY one I have read here that does not deny (implicitly or explicitly) that MOST women are truly, unarguably more emotional than logical. Sure, you mixed it up with some religious mumbo-jumbo but that's still ok. The important thing (to me), is that you alone (out of the multitude of female comments here) actually listened to the OP's reasons for why he sees women the way he does. @KlausMichaelson, I think you should listen to this woman; she makes an interesting argument on why being emotional is probably not such a bad thing. 1 Like |

chival: Excellent insight, my very same opinion. I also foresee Meffy suddenly doing a U-turn maybe 1 week after elections and "bowing to the demands of the honest Nigerian public" to lift restrictions on depositing old notes for another 2 months. 1 Like |

@Fyngal1 I'm so, so sorry for your loss. Words are never enough at times like these. I've never been the religious or praying type. But I know it - in my heart, I know it - that there's a divine consciousness out there. One that makes it their business to give succour and comfort to the bereaved and brokenhearted. May the peace and love of this One heal you, and envelope you and your loved ones in this trying period. Doh, oh nne. Doh #Machiejine |

QuinModah: Your estimate is actually VERY conservative, ma. At current rates/costs in the UK, that family will sleep on the streets. For a family of 5 - dad, mum, 3 kids (all under 10), you should budget AT LEAST N25m-N30m. 2 Likes |

BraniacX: The comparison was only made because someone said Jon is a great swordsman... and proceeded to post his video "evidence" when challenged. Lol |

TheKingIsHere: Did you seriously post a video of Jon Snow fighting UNTRAINED Night's Watch RECRUITS as evidence of his "great" swordsmanship?? Chaii Oberyn Martell, the Viper. Sandor Clegane the Hound. Ser Jaime Lannister the Kingslayer. Ser Arthur Dayne, the Sword of the Morning. Any of these men would have wiped the floor with your "great" Jon Snow. If you too lazy to disabuse yourself of your ignorance, sorry. |

TheKingIsHere: I guess you mean WHITE walkers. Oga, stop displaying ignorance. With valyrian steel or dragonglass, even untrained wildlings can kill white walkers. Why do you think Jon was determined mine at Dragonstone?? You should probably go and check how many white walkers Sam killed before you used them as a yardstick. Or maybe Samwell Tarly a.k.a Sam the Slayer a.k.a Ser Piggy is now also a GREAT SWORDSMAN. 1 Like |

TheKingIsHere: Disrespect? Lol .. Even ignoring the books totally, Jon Snow was disarmed by Magnar of Thenn. Compare to what First Sword of Braavos, Syrio Forrel said to Arya about your sword and your arm, and you'll understand what it means for your "one of the greatest" to be disarmed in battle by a wildling that Sandor Clegane will make short work of. By the end of GoT, King Crow was more battle-hardened and capable enough to hold his own in a melee, but in a class of the greats? Nope. Go and rewatch Ser Arthur Dayne's fight versus Eddard Stark and his retainers. That's a Great Swordsman looks like. 1 Like |

Barrywhyte1: What "growing reputation"? GOT is over. Nothing is growing anywhere. Jon Snow was a great, honorable man, a true "son" of the great Ned. He was a wonderful leader, and one of the bravest men Westeros had even seen. But honor and bravery is not the same as swordsmanship, not matter how much we wish it. At his prime, the greatest foes Jon faced where his poorly trained black brothers, even worse poorly trained wildlings, and white walkers - and he had valyrian steel which is complete cheat mode against white walkers. The one real test of skill Jon faced was when he was younger against Qhorin Halfhand, and even Jon himself admits that Qhorin let him win. At that age, Jaime Lannister was already an established master swordsman and Barristan Selmy was already storming castles all by himself. Jon is a weak, weak comparison. 4 Likes 1 Share |

TheKingIsHere: Please be serious. Jon Snow is probably the LEAST capable swordsman there; the only person he may have a chance against is Aemond Kinslayer. 2 Likes |

Ibunkun1: Dragons sometimes disregarding their riders' orders is an idea that was only introduced in the show; I believe it was first vaguely hinted at with Daenerys and Drogon in GoT before being fully explored here. I don't recall that ever happening in the source material (the books); there, Aemond expressly intended to kill Lucerys - because of a girl's taunts, no less! (Women have really been causing wars since time immemorial) 1 Like |

Monaboo: Wait till 40. It hits differently then, when one mostly likely would have achieved the main "bullet points" of one's career goals. And then one looks around and slowly starts wondering what all that stress was for. No gender escapes this mid-life crisis, but in truth it does hit women worse than men. You seem like a smart woman; you know what to do. 2 Likes |

To tune down the argument, know your family tree very well before jumping into what's moral or not moral. The way Otto engraved his family name into history, very ruthless. Engraved his name in history and brewed a civil war that ultimately had his own direct line killed off / die off. A perfect example of a second son that reached up too high. The Hightowers have been more sensible ever since - leave Targaryen politics to Targaryens. 2 Likes |

Meanwhile... I really really wish they would stop all those weak references to "ice and fire" and "the prince that was promised" (especially when the original Game of Thrones unceremoniously killed off NK and ended all talks of promised princes!!). The HotD show is solid and strong on its own, with a good story and excellent actors; it does not need to keep making fake call-backs to GoT. |

Lh19: Mmmm. The moniker "the White Worm" used to refer someone else far deadlier. This someone else hasn't been born yet in this show's timeline though. |

Episode 4: King of the Narrow Sea My thoughts: - Lord Dondarrion replenishing bodily fluids halfway through his "lecture"... Talk really is thirsty business And bonus shout-out to Blackwood and Bracken renewing their multigenerational feud. - The showdown in the throne room was flawless. - Enough bwess. - Daemon is playing a long game. - Poor Ser Criston. Hot breakfast loading. - Who is the "White Worm"? - If this was real life, King Aerys wouldn't last a year on the throne. He really needed Rhaenyra to point out the vulture in the room? - Lord Otto finally overplayed his hand (no pun intended, lol)... And yet I feel like he did it deliberately - like he knew exactly what to expect from King Aerys. Now why would such a powerful man DELIBERATELY get himself fired from his job? Mmmmm. I give it 8/10. 1 Like |

crackhaus: Fully concur on all. I'd seen Matt Smith in Morbius, he was good there but I never forsaw his near-perfect depiction of Prince Daemon. I'd assumed they'll just age up Edit: I was severely disappointed by how GOT ended so I pointedly ignored HotD production and cast news. Hence my ignorance on young/older Rhaenyra. |

Episode 3 - Second of His Name. A solid entry. I give it a 4/5. The battle scene at the end was gold; if I may quote someone here, "enough dracarys". @crackhaus, thoughts? |
