In the Game of Prostitutes, Tyrion Wins or He Plays Again
I haven’t posted anything about HBO’s Game of Thrones series in these past few days, which some of you might think was me being kind to those people who aren’t insanely excited by show’s imminent premiere. FUCK NO. It was just an oversight on my part. So now that HBO has posted a bunch of videos examining specific characters, it’s a great way for me to show that I care nothing for the feelings of people who aren’t besides themselves with joy about the GoT series. Above is Tyrion, the awesome character played by the equally awesome Peter Dinklage, but there’s also Bran Stark, Khal Drogo, Jon Snow, Jaime Lannister, King Robert Baratheon, and Catelyn Stark. Enjoy! OR ELSE.
