Zeus 04/29/19 1:44:36 PM #216:	WhiskeyDisk posted... I get the comparisons to ASoIaF, but GRRM keeps so many threads in the air at once it's hard to keep track of without taking notes. Plus, there's a lot of dead ends and cast off threads in ASoIaF. Abercrombie keeps it manageable to where every character is used, and every thread is stitched by the end. I kinda like having at least some dead ends, etc, since otherwise things seem too perfectly neat. ParanoidObsessive posted... I haven't seen Endgame yet, and have no intention of seeing it for like another couple weeks. I've actually successfully avoiding any and all spoilers so far - so long as no one explicitly blurts anything out in this topic, or starts discussing it without spoiler tags, I feel like I can dodge it. As I may have mentioned, I inadvertently spoiled a bunch of things while just trying to find out which ~~Avenger died~~. Granted, knowing that an ~~Avenger dies~~ is a spoiler in the first place kinda. ParanoidObsessive posted... I've always prided myself on my vast store of useless pop culture knowledge, especially as it pertains to my beloved 80s. But I didn't recognize a single one of these shows! Wait, not even the Jim Henson Hour? I can't recall much about it, but I remember it being a thing. At any rate, most of those "barely memorable shows" aren't memorable in the least >_> Although I will say I saw a DVD collection for Dads at Dollar Tree some months ago. Only watched the first 2 minutes of the video, will check the rest out when I get home. ParanoidObsessive posted... And, I mean, I remember some really obscure shit. Like these shows! There are countless tv shows out there so.... idg the big deal. ParanoidObsessive posted... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_Pt9Sgjos4" data-time=" Vaguely remember that, especially the theme.
