Bad Things

Well, that was a fun episode. I can’t wait for the rest! A couple things that were a bit annoying I don’t think Sam would have been that upset to learn that Dany torched his father, after the way he has always been treated by him. That whole part really didn’t really seem to fit in with everything else going on. I’m surprised there wasn’t a much greater sense of urgency in everyone once they found out about the Ice Dragon. God, I wish Cersei had Euron executed when she had a chance. Instead, she let the idiot shag her!

Hodor!

Meanwhile, over at the "Off the Wall" page...

I was bumping around the tv channels the other night, right when they introduced this actress as the Game of Thrones "shame" nun. I almost did a spit-take. She's hot!

Yeah, I just rewatched it last night and totally agree. Excellent episode with possibly the best battle scene ever filmed. I can't wait for next week!

Mate, I'm with ya. To be very honest... my frustration began a couple days after the massacre when I came to this board like I've been doing since the late '90's. I didn't listen to that little voice in my head and I went to the PPP board to see what people were writing about NZ. I was f'ing horrified that there was a thread, where the OP (Paulus?) was sharing the livestream footage of the atrocity along with the shooters manifesto. In my view it was simply abhorrent and has stuck in my craw since then. On one side, I see the love and support that Kiwis are giving to the victims and on the other side, I see some of my fellow Bills fans almost openly happy that it happened. I think that says a lot. Anyway, God Bless and Let's go Buffalo!

All good Exiled. I apologize and am sorry about the confusion. Go Bills!

Yeah, so what? So, I now "hate" the USA because I like where I live? I can't love both places?? You have no idea who I am or what I've done for America. I stick up for the US every single time I hear someone badmouth it. (This is happening more and more it seems.) I love America. All my family lives there and I want nothing but the best for the country. I just can't believe how easily offended you gun guys are about another countries laws.

Sorry about that, Gugny. I meant to say that I called out Exiled for his comments, but I've seen been told that it was simply his attempt at sarcasm. I totally understand that. This Joe guy though. He sure seems to be easily offended by what other countries do.

What is your problem?? This whole mess began when I told the OP that he was a disgrace for turning the suicide of a teenager into a something political. I wasn't the only one saying that either. Now you're all butthurt with me because New Zealand passed new gun laws? Find something productive to do with your time instead of being such an sensitive angry little snowflake.

Yeah, you keep believing what you want to believe to keep you happy. Fortunately I still own property, pay taxes and have the right to vote in the US.

These new gun laws are a bit unique since it has just about complete public support, in addition... all political parties are supporting it. Can you imagine having a government where parties get along and try to work with one another for the common good? The bill generally gets debated in Parliament and if passed, becomes law (Act of Parliament). Just curious if American media is reporting that the shooter was actually an Australian who moved to NZ to specifically do this heinous act? He moved here a couple years ago and was able to legally buy these assault weapons and isn't even a NZ citizen. Not good. One of the most frustrating/annoying things about this all is how the American NRA has put "boots on the ground" in NZ to try to influence NZ politics. Kiwi's are pissed. Just leave us the hell alone, NRA. Correct. There have not been any since then. "The University of Sydney, in a 2016 study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, found Australia hadn't experienced a fatal mass shooting – one in which five or more people are killed – since the 1996 shooting. In the 18 years prior, 1979-1996, there were 13 fatal mass shootings in Australia."

First of all, we don't have the second amendment here. Gun ownership is a privilege and not a "right". Before the government even announced the new gun laws, the nations biggest chain of hunting stores voluntarily decided to remove all "assault" type weapons from their shelves. Yeah, thank heavens is right... I honestly thank God every day that we moved here. 14 years now. Absolutely love it. Oh... maybe you were also being sarcastic. Did you know that it only took Australia to change their gun laws 12 days after their last massacre in 1996? You probably didn't.

Cheers. I was surprised about that too. Anyway, after my visit to the PPP board, I placed quite a few people on my "ignore list". Sadly, a few of them were members that I've enjoyed corresponding with since the '90's. I have zero tolerance for hate.

Apologies. This has been a helluva emotional week down here. I gotta say... I (stupidly) went to the Politics board on here a couple days ago to see what people were writing about the Christchurch massacre. It was simply shocking to see the blatant hate and ignorance in so many people here. I figured this guy was spouting the same kind of BS.

You show more of your ignorance with everything you write. You do know what happened down here last week, right? You do know that our gov't has already banned all semi-automatic assault weapons, right? (It only took 6 days since the shooting.) Do you know that all NZ political parties supported the gun law change? Oh that's right... New Zealand is a disgrace. We should try to be more like America. Give me a break. Pathetic.

You are a disgrace.

You heard wrong. The team themselves are having the conversation and are certainly not being "forced" into anything. Fake news. (Or a cancer...) Just joking!

I've never had a problem wearing Bill's gear, no matter where I lived. That's silly. That said, no one in NZ is going to know what the Bills logo stands for.

Bugger... you usually seemed to come across as a decent guy too. What does this make you? I honestly couldn't care less. You're just another one to add to my ignore list.

You are a pathetic POS for linking the video to this Bills board. May God bless your soul.
