Is George Martin Among Us?

[Culhwch]

The other one was never constrained by the laws of physics or time, has a little magic built in and keeps out Undead.

I built a fence like that around my house, once.

Oh, no, wait - that was just pickets. My mistake.

 

[Eulalia]

I'd settle for Roman engineers and an idle army to maintain my fence. I'm not worried about undead at this time--just hungry rabbits.

 

[Rosemary]

I don't have a fence around my place, I have no worries about the undead but then as I say, I am not a keen GRRM fan - so it can't be me!

 

[Eulalia]

Hi Rosemary!

Not a George Martin fan? Tsk tsk. Maybe you will be enlightened one day.

Fortunately, I have no Wilding neighbours. Perhaps I should do an undead check with some of them, afterall. You can never be too careful these days.

 

[the smiling weirwood]

I think we're all GRRM. He's such a master of multiple POVS that he has managed to write an entire forum of discussion by himself.

 

[Ghost of Harrenhal]

I'm glad I've avoided suspicion throughout this thread! I guess I'd better go finish off the Meereenese Knot and kill Jon Snow.

 

[Ursa major]

But GRRM doesn't use a ghost writer....

 

[No One]

But GRRM doesn't use a ghost writer....

Nor do I imagine that GRRM, even at his most devious, would ever think to use the word ethereal as an adjective to apparition

But if Weirwood has the right of it, we must be careful...a catharsis like that and we might all have some kind of schism. Then we'll never finish the Dance.

I don't know who to quote, Gollum or the Borg. I'll go for the Borg..."We are the GRRM. You will be assimilated. Resistance is futile."

 

[Ursa major]

I think we've been getting the first part of that Borg declaration wrong.


The Borg are very logical and they will have planned how to integrate each new species before they attempt it for real.

So what they are saying is: "You will be as simulated."


In a way, it isn't aggressive; it's more a kind of guarantee of good engineering and good workborgship, perhaps with an implied 90-day warranty attached.

 

[No One]

I hereby nominate Ursa as humanity's interstellar communications ambassador, with the uncanny insight of seeing the cuddly bear in all things. Who knew the Borg were such sweethearts and it was all just one of those 'interspecies' misunderstandings. It's really very tragic.

 

[Ursa major]

Not just any old tragedy either, but tragedy cubed....


*cough*

 

[Eulalia]

Isn't there a song in AGOT about a Borg and a Maiden Fair?

 

[YOSSARIAN]

Hey everybody!!! Been a long time since I dropped by and contributed-nothing personal, guess I just didn't have anything to say (but I've been trolling here and there). Just wanted to confirm that I am not Mr. Martin, so you can drop me from the list of suspects.

 

[Culhwch]

That's exactly what Martin would say!

 

[The Imp]

That's exactly what Martin would say!

Bur GRRM would have taken 3 pages to say it

 

[Hilarious Joke]

With three more pages coming...

Any minute now....

 

[No One]

Isn't there a song in AGOT about a Borg and a Maiden Fair?

A perfect set-up for you Boaz.

I'm disappointed - was looking forward to the full rendition.

Or do you just hate Star Trek?

 

[Eulalia]

Hate Star Trek?! Blasphemy!! Used to be my favourite show, second only to Batman. (Pow, biff, bop). I had a somewhat Arya personality.

Oh dear. The only word that I can think of the rhymes with Borg, is morgue. Perhaps, re-org. This task could be part of the George Martin test.

 

[Ursa major]

There's Dawg, as in the Deputy of that ilk.

 

[No One]

There's also dot-org (like a website) and bjorn borg, at a stretch.

Excuse me, I have Faceless Man business to attend to...
