Game of Thrones (spoiler-free zone)
A few have suggested it, might as well test the waters. The idea is to give people who haven't read the books a safe place to talk about the show.
A few quick ground rules:

Yeah, I know the stuff so far has been minor, but there shouldn't really be any book talk at all, IMO.
I'm sure there is shit that has been left out of the books that wasn't in the show. I plan on reading the books and don't want them completely spoiled. I love the little intricacies and differences and if someone points out a bunch of them, it will make the reading experience less enjoyable for me. Just my 2 cents. |

I appreciated hearing the differences the first season. Partly what motivated me to buy the books.

Plus, if there's no book talk, there's a much lesser chance of someone being distracted or something and accidentally giving something big away by mistake.

The rules have been what they are for a year/season-and-a-half, they ain't changing now. Just don't spoil.

If you don't like them, start your own thread. Call it "Buck'z gayme of throwns thred fur tha iliterite". |

So anyway, Bronn dropped one of the best lines of the episode.
“There’s no cure for being a ****.” — Bronn, on Joffrey. |

I actually like Bronn more on the show than I did in the books. I could watch a whole episode of dialog between him and Tyrion.

I was kidding before, but if it's such a big deal to you, feel free to start your own thread. Won't hurt my feelings a bit. Might be worth having a place for discussion of the show that bans book talk. |

You ****ing claim every tv show before anyone else gets the chance to start a thread.
Naw but seriously, I'm just joking around with you, but IMO, anything from a book that is different from the show (even if already aired) should be in spoiler tags. That's a simple fix. |

Isn't Supernatural is the only other show thread I have going? Maybe I'm sleep posting again.
