Game of Thrones!

[Mummy2aStar]

Bit of Kitty trivia for you. My half sister has dwarfism (Achondroplasia) and when she was born my (lame) dad and (even lamer) step mum decided to give her THE silliest name alive.

Mercedes Sapphire Porche Poppy Pebbles **familyname**

That's Mercedes (car), Sapphire (my Dad had a Sierra Sapphire at the time so again... CAR), Porche (car), Poppy (Playdays... SARDIIIIIINES), Pebbles (Flintstones)... Then family name. Genuine originality of those names right there. That was their thought process. Said the poor lamb didnt already have a challenge ahead of her in life, they give her the biggest pisstake of a name ever.

She was in the local Gazette who ran a story on her birth under the headline 'Big Name, Little Baby'... A play on the title of epic 80s movie magic 'Big trouble, little china'.

I kid you not.

Anyway, there are definitely differs types of dwarfism. The most common 2 are one where you have a normal sized torso, larger than average head and small arms and legs (this is what my half sister has) and the other is like a small person with normal proportions.

I'd say Mr Dinklage has Achondroplasia (will google my suspicions in a sec) and therefore should have a normal sized peeped based on the logic that it is effectively art of his torso which seems to be normal sized xx

Wow what a name!

Welcome to the thread :wave: I think we've all mentioned watching the seasons again from the begining one each week or something. Or if you haven't read the books you could do that?

Thank goodness True Blood starts after GoT has finished. That'll keep me sane for a bit. It's the big gap between that and new season of The Walking Dead that I'm worried about :/ But after Walking Dead should be GoT again!

I'm on the fence about True Blood right now. I was loving it, but it's got a bit... weird? Although I can't wait to see evil/zombie/vampire Bill!

person after my own heart. that is exactly what I look forward to.

 

[SisterRose]

After GOT I'll be looking forward to Pretty little liars and wilfred. And more supernatural!

 

[luna_19]

And Dexter then Breaking Bad!

 

[kassiaethne]

And Dexter then Breaking Bad!

just started watching dexter and already at the last season. lol

 

[shellideaks]

I really need to catch up on Dexter, I love it but stopped watching at season 4 when I moved house. I didn't have the channel it was aired on any more lol.

I'm looking forward to True Blood as well and I've just downloaded the first series of Supernatural. I've never seen it but I think it's a show I'll like given all the other things I like.

Oh and still got the last 5 episodes of Walking Dead season 3 to watch. Had them sat on the laptop for weeks
