Game of Thrones Violence in Florida

Apparently two dipshits in Florida started kicking the crap out of each other over a 'disagreement' about the new HBO series Game of Thrones.

Originally I assumed this would be some argument resulting from how faithful, or unfaithful, the adaptation has been so far. Nope... IGN (who initially ran the story) reports that these guys resorted to brawling over 'who will win (the game of thrones).'

Honestly I wish this kind of shit still surprised me.... but after living in Florida for almost a decade, I can assure you that this kind of thing is par for the course. In fact your average news broadcast here is usually going to contain far crazier shit. Not to mention that this argument is even more ridiulous when you consider George Martin (the guy who writes the books on which the show is based) hasn't finished the series yet... even he probably doesn't know who will eventually 'win.'

Regardless - episode 2 was pretty good, though honestly I think it did lose a little something between episode 1 and 2. The second episode seemed to drag a little in my opinion... overall there was good stuff in there, but the pacing was rather slow when you consider they only have 10 episodes to get through the entire book.
