i did, i think the entire feud is ridiculous on both endsFreeBaGeL said:This is pretty funny coming from a guy that's gone out of his way to stir stuff up on the book vs non-book front.B-Deep said:Here's my thought
I have circles of friends with all manner of experience in this awesome fictional world, some have read the books, some only watch the shows, some are behind on the books, some are behiond on the shows
Real life, chat, facebook, twitter, this is the only place i have seen the readers vs viewers feud.
readers generally don't want to spoil things for viewers, viewers generally tend to appreciate it when a reader gives them info the show may have glossed over
EVERYWHERE but here this show and these books bring people together as something they have in common
how the #### can this place get it so backwards?
I assume now the responses will be finger pointing and feuding and name calling
you should all look inside though, something is horribly wrong with the people in this place that a fictional work that we all love can somehow divide us rather than unite us
It is a shame, I am ashamed and each of you should be as well
I was going to make a Song of Ice and Fire type statement here to illustrate my point, but if i pull information from unapproved sources i'll become part of the problem, so it is safer to just not bring GoT into this post at all, this post in a GoT thread by someone who loves the show and the books
think about how sad that is
My friends across communication methods look forward to hearing from people experiencing this for the first time in any medium, we relish bringing others into our nerdy obsession. I expect dooshbaggery and division in politics and religion threads, I sincerely would have thought this could be a topic that would be immune from that
silly me
I should just shun the lot of you and take the black.
but alas, i have been asked to leave. Better to keep the walls up then try and find a common ground
enjoy your thread TV folks, i hope the segregation makes it better
I'll still read as I genuinely enjoy the perspective of people seeing this for the first time on tv, i just won't interact
I am, after all, an outsider, not to be trusted
I'll just sit here quietly in the back of the bus
