A Letter to the Lannister Family

Or really me complaining about my new favorite show.

A Letter to the Lannister Family
Screenrant

I have always been the one late to the party with television shows, but I always seem to miss the biggest spoilers and never get told how it ends. This time after months of my friend Doug telling me about Game of Thrones, and hearing my grandparents enjoying it, I HAD to start it! I'm only on season two episode seven, but I am hooked, I even bought the books. But something about the Lannister family struck me as off, even hateful? I decided since I can't send parchment and a raven to the family, I'll just complain about them on the internet, that's what real people do right?

To the family who rules the Westerlands, thank you for showing me what true dislike really is. Times are different, but betrayal never changes. Starting from the great Queen Cersei herself having relations with her twin brother and strengthening her dislike toward (now deceased) husband King Robert Baratheon. Ending with none other than Joffrey, the arrogant little boy who is the one person that shouldn't have power becoming king. I'm not sure why I have so much dislike for a powerful family who obviously knows to right their wrongs and stay knowledgeable (except Joffrey). Your saying being, "hear me roar," but aside from Tyrion I only hear you whimper. Cersei you being so full of pride to allow Joffrey to take the iron throne and start the war of lifetime. Assassinating Eddard Stark when his life was more than the Lannisters combined.

To the family who's sigil is that of a mighty lion being ironic because the family is a bunch of cowards. So caught up in the downfall of the Targaryen's many years ago, that you are too blind to see how many houses wish to see your own downfall. But with all of the bad your family has caused, a good has come from it. Tyrion Lannister, the wicked mind with the drunk body full of knowledge. The one who wasn't in this for a war, but to survive and keep friends as friends not enemies. The family of poison apples, using the one bullied being the candy apple. I might not like this family, but I await the episode they fall and their kingdom is destroyed.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
