Speaking of Linda, and I know this is totally not the thread for it, but has anyone considered going to a tabloid with her bullshit? Or at least, a suitably low-morals news site/organisation that would care? Oh man, it appears that I'm now running some sort of SJW board

Fuck to the fuck. It's been MONTHS since we've heard anything at all about the NFL season. Holy shit, the preseason is almost over!

Something to the effect of "Make George Publicly Repudiate Linda Antonnson". Didn't get much traction. I thought it was odd to take fanwank that far.

They published one written by a TWD fan who pointed out how crazy Bethyl shippers were acting in the fandom.

The Gurmster never got over it that HP and the Goblet of Fire (or whatever) beat aSoS at the Hugo 2001. Moped around that it only won because it sold more which is not an indication of quality. Boohoo. Of course, nowadays, aDwD doesn´t suck because it´s a fucking bestseller.

To quote @stannisforking299al's immortal words,

No. Just no.

And The Man is hitting them out of the ballpark. Since we didn´t hear anything AT ALL about the Hugos, he finally commented on them today: grrm.livejournal.com/439564.htmlAttaman, Georgie, we´re feeling with you !

This thread is filled with too much bitterness and cynicism for a man whose work I deeply love and I don't like it. I'll stay away from here from now on, I think.

Yeah me too. I enjoy our group here for show vs. book debates, news on casting and filming of the show, love for the cast and crew, and love for the books. I have no ill will for Mr. Martin and a lot of this dramatic fan-boi angst over every word on his blog or criticizing his delay in the books is childish - especially to those of us who have been a fan for the nearly 20 years he's been writing them. He took longer than this between AFFC and ADWD and there was no HBO fame then so most of the criticism I've seen here and elsewhere is out of line and incorrect.
