Yeah I knew the slang already, I just didn't realize it was Australian specific. Although I used to chat with a lot of people from there and NZ in the MSN chatrooms, so maybe that's where I picked it up.
The part of Colorado I'm in is warmer than the parts of the state most people are familiar with like Denver and the fancy ski resort areas. We get a little snow but it doesn't usually stay freezing here that long. It's considered "high desert" although it doesn't get that hot here either.

So Leslie Jones is screeching that "people need to grow the fuck up" if they were disappointed in GOT's ending. This is the same asshole that films herself screaming at her TV while watching the show. Her opinion is meaningless to me.

Whenever I think of GoT I feel resentful about how they ended it.

I still miss my favorite show. I don't think I've ever felt that way about a show, maybe just a little for the Sopranos.
Anyway...when Arya plunged her knife into the night king I came right up out of my seat hollering. Ahahahaha. I loved it!
This was one of their final readings. Jon Snow finds out he kills his queen.

I saw Iwan Rheon's name mentioned so I went to see what he's been doing since GoT. He's making music in Europe and it looks like he is this quiet, unassuming guy who leads a humble lifestyle. I checked out his IG and he's not a show off at all. His home is modest and so is he, there's no flash to him and aside from one picture of the guy Ramsey tortured and named Reek there is no reference to GoT at all. Alfie Allen was smiling sweetly at him in the picture, it looked like they had been having lunch together. It's hard to reconcile this guy with Ramsey Bolton whose death I cheered on GoT. I loved the dogs eating that fucker. 
YeahYeahYeah, I know it's called acting.

I started watching GoT on HBO Max. I'm only a few episodes in. Some of it I don't recall seeing at all.
The sex scenes between women are very provocative.
Those fucking Lannisters. They have no redeeming qualities. I hadn't forgotten that. Fricken Joeffry crying like a little bitch and the Hound killing the little boy. Damn. Jaime pushing Bran out the window.
Ned is still alive and I'm glad I know what's coming. I was so pissed the first time. That's when I understood they will kill off anyone!
People are mentally sick motherfuckers in that they get jacked the hell up at witnessing violent, graphic death as entertainment.

YeahYeahYeah, I know it's called acting. The Ramsey Bolton character was probably my favorite part of the whole show, he's a really good actor. I've never seen him in anything else other than playing Mick Mars in the Motley Crue movie.

I loved to hate that despicable, little bastard. He was as bad as they come. Iwan the man could not be more different than Ramsey and I agree, he's a really good actor.

I meant to get into that when it first started. I haven't had a favorite show since GoT.

House of the dragon was good, but I don't think it can top GOT.

What do you think of season 5 compared to 4?

Graphic violence stimulates adrenalin production, which is addictive if you're into that sort of fix.

I can't compare them. I LOVED all the seasons except for the last one. It felt hurried to me and of course that completely sucky ending.
I'm not into graphic violence at all. I was referring to the time & place, medieval times where beheadings were considered entertainment. I feel the same way about public hangings in the wild west. Man. People would bring their kids to watch.
